Greg...did I just understand you to say that we can't pay entry fees to the Super or Ultimate via credit card? Is it because of the cc fee?

If so, that may actually derail my plans for playing in them.

Also...is there any consideration of expanding the 3-pack or 4-pack idea?

For instance, I'm considering the Classic + Ultimate + Super. It would seem that someone thinking about plunking down almost $9,000 in entry fees might get some consideration for that.

Thanks!

Paul, we are paying out the highest percentages in the industry with the idea of not giving 3% to the credit card companies. If everyone can make this happen in the Super, Ultimate and Diamond, we can pass those savings onto you, the players in the form of higher prize payouts. Money orders or checks work best to make this happen.

I'm at 715-254-5553 tomorrow if you'd like to discuss.

Thanks! Give me a call. We can't put every possible scenario together on the Packages link or it will get very confusing. But yes, the idea of the Special Packages is to reward folks who do multiple NFFC events with us to the tune of at least two main events. You'd qualify in the ballpark you're going, so give me a holler.

Don't let my busy schedule so far get in the way of emailing or calling me with these type of questions. I'm at [email protected] and our new office number is 715-445-2906. Give Tom or me a shout with any question you might have.

I'm excited by the early emails we've gotten so far about the locations and events payouts. Now Tom and I need to be here more often to answer all questions and get these contests rolling. We'll get that done and talk about player rankings, dollar values and more in the coming days, weeks and months ahead. It should be another fun NFL season and then the owners and players better reach a collective bargaining agreement to make sure 2011 isn't in jeopardy. That scenario scares the bejeezus out of me.

Will do, Greg.

And just for my own clarification...did you change email address? I have you as [email protected]

Is the 4-pack is only available if you draft in Vegas, NY or Chitown?

Is there a sign up list for DCs and Auctions for the other 5 locations?

Can a 4-pack include two Auctions and the two mains?

Can a 4-pack include two Auctions and the two mains? Right now Rob, yes we just have the 4-packs in the three main cities. We are just offering the main events in the other cities. However, that being said, I'm getting some requests to add Friday events in Boston and a few other cities. Honestly, if demand warrants it we will extend the Friday events to those cities. But we are trying to be smart with our expenses at each location and don't want partial leagues across the board.

But again, if we think we can do it we will in those cities. But right now we are concentrating on the Friday events in the three main cities.

Yes, as I stated to Glenn, we'll definitely work on various 4-packs. You don't have a wedding this year on Labor Day weekend, do you?

Glad to have you back CHAMP and plan some poker parties in Chicago for the gang. I think the boys are feeling in a gambling mood now that we're hosting this at Arlington Park. Thanks.
