The debut NBC Sports National Fantasy Football Championship Primetime main event will host live drafts on Saturday, Aug. 30th at the Chicago/Schaumburg Renaissance Hotel & Convention Center. These drafts will start promptly at 6 p.m. CST and consist of 4 leagues of 12 teams each. Everyone should be in the draft room at least 20 minutes before-hand as we will start EXACTLY at 10 a.m. There will be one break after round 10 and we’ll finish after the 20th round. Good luck everyone.

Remember that this year we will have 3RR (Third Round Reversal) in the main event. That means we’ll start out 1-12 in Round 1, 12-1 in Round 2 and 12-1 again in Round 3. Serpentine continues in Round 4 as 1-12, 12-1, etc. through Round 20.

Chicago will feature 48 teams consisting of 4 full leagues. Below is the draft order for Chicago League 4:

This was a good draft. I think that Brian and Scott are the teams to beat and they drafted right smack dab in the middle.

Nice job by all.

Get well George!
