If you are lurking and trying to decide whether or not to play?
Do not hesitate to join. You will NOT be dissappointed here.
1) Established and PROVEN leader in the industry. If trust is a consideration, look no further. This event is 100% trustworthy.
2) Customer service: Bar none, the best in the industry. I have played for a couple of decades in numerous formats and all over the web, this is my FF home.
3) Competition: what you would expect from a challenge that is at the top of the food chain. There are the fanatics who spend countless hours everyday scouring the boards year round and you also have the casual player who believes they have the skillset to try and put themselves in a position for the Championship Run.
Note: The 1300 you spend on the mains will seem like peanuts if and when your team has that magical run. It is a priceless feeling to be in the hunt those final three weeks let alone the final weekend. Even 100K does not compare to the feeling that final weekend delivers.
4) Comaraderie - This MB has fostered some very deep and personal relationships. Friendships have been made with folks all over the country because of the NFFC and that too is a bonus. It is hard to put a price tag on this aspect but if you are lurking and considering this challenge, you know you have the skills to beat us.
The MB does feature some diehards who tend to dominate the discussions. Yes, we can get a tad riled up as we engage in discussions that sometimes are not really related to the game itself but please brush that aside and help us make this board a fun and entertaining place to dicsuss this challenge and the fantasy industry as a whole.
It features 14 and 12 team leagues.
If you have not played in a 14 team league, do not let that stop you. Study the scoring system, roster requirements and go for it.
The best way "IN" the game is by trying a satellite. Join a $125 league and give the 14 team draft a spin. I think you will like the challenge that this format provides and don't all players like a new challenge?
Bottom Line
This event is a trustworthy, fun and fair contest.
The back end support is rock solid and they are trying to ensure that features are added yearly to improve the product based on input from the players. You will have a say in the product you purchase. Novel idea huh?
The payouts are in line with industry standards for live events and again, they actually payout immediately.
If you are lurking and debating whether or not you are going to join, the only question should be whether or not you can afford this challenge though I would rather have you ask yourself:
Ask yourself, "Can I afford NOT to join?"
You know the NFL and the fantasy game. You know you can adjust your style to any format whether or not it is 12 or 14 teams. You are ready to take the next step and I know you feel exactly as I do. I know that if I am right in my prep and I have a little luck, I can beat anyone, any year.
What if this is your year? Can you live with yourself if you do not join and nail it this year?

I think Kerston or Kirston....or whatever her name was...She was the one who slipped you the Mickey and rocked Emma's world. Jason didn't have the heart to break it to you!! [/QUOTE]It's Kirsten. She didn't last more than two months after the 2005 NFFC main event. But at least Gekko still remembers her.
