Possible NFFC changes

How can anyone have a problem with Greg adding an additional prize??? There are no rules being changed, just a bonus prize being added.

It troubles me that the contest gets to be altered by the potentially vocal minority. I don't have the time to live on the MB but does that make my thoughts (or any other non MB regular) less important than those that do?It may seem that way at times (though not frequently), but I am quite certain that Greg talks to owners off-line via phone and e-mail. He considers a lot more opinions than just the "MB regulars" before making a rules change.

I don't see anything wrong with the added prize, but I do have a thought on a related matter.

Wouldn't you think that the point leader, after only four weeks, would be concerned that if HE were the one to lobby for said prize would maybe bring some bad karma on himself?

Maybe it's just me, but if I was the overall leader right now I would clam up on these boards like I was in dead last...but that's just me.

And Greg. On an unrelated matter, could you please read the PM I sent you earlier this week and get back to me by PM or to my e-mail? Thanks.

Haven't boasted once about being in first, as I realize about bad karma.

Honestly, I was lobbying for NEXT year, and threw in this year as a side note. I have ALWAYS felt that this should be rewarded from DAY ONE in the NFFC. It is a HUGE accomplishment in my opinion to have the most points after 13 weeks (much bigger than winning a 14 team league).

As for me winning it this year, I certainly am not counting on it. As for bad karma, I have Brian Westbrook.

That stomach ulcer started the minute his name slipped from my mouth.

Billy, don't mind Bongizmo...he is a WaCkOFF homer and if it was Lemmings who agreed to the 1st overall prize 4 weeks into season, bong would probably break out a micro-fiber towel and proceed to polish his knob to a show room shine gloss

Actually Fisher, although normally I wouldn't waste time responding to a childish comment such as yours, howver in an effort to set facts straight...I actually have been in both events since the inception and am as entitled to an opinions/thought/idea as you are even when they don't agree with yours...borrowing from a certain scaly one's line...NEXT.

I got no beef with BONGIZMO, as I met him and he is a good guy!

We just disagree on this issue... nothing more.

For those keeping track at home and for those that didn't read real closely, I was asking greg for clarification of which of the three items Billy brought up are being changed. Greg's quote indicated the added prize couldn't be until next year thus I want to make sure he in fact changed his mind on that which is more acceptable than if in fact he was agreeing to changing one of Billy's other two suggestions during the contest.

Just trying to make sure i know what sets of rules we are playing buy, with the constant changes brandished about on these boards, it's often hard to tell the players without a program...

For those are bitching without figuring out what’s really going on here ... read Latham's post again and read the rest of this thread again until you get it!

or put another way

HE'S GIVING SOMETHING EXTRA AWAY FOR NOTHING! GET OFF HIS BACK! UNBELIEVABLE!
