Chicago League 3: NFFC Classic

Greg Ambrosius · Post by **Greg Ambrosius** » Sun Aug 30, 2009 12:18 pm

The sixth annual National Fantasy Football Championship will host live drafts for the main event on Saturday, Sept. 5th at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Chicago, Illinois. These drafts will start promptly at noon CST and consist of four leagues of 14 teams each. Everyone should be in the draft room at least 20 minutes before-hand as we will start EXACTLY at noon. There will be one break after round 10 and we’ll finish after the 19th round. Good luck everyone.
Remember that this year we will again have 3RR (Third Round Reversal) in the main event. That means we’ll start out 1-14 in Round 1, 14-1 in Round 2 and 14-1 again in Round 3. Serpentine continues in Round 4 as 1-14, 14-1, etc. through Round 19.
Chicago will feature 56 teams consisting of 4 full leagues. Below is the draft order for Chicago League 3:

LEAGUE 3
1. Erik Duerschmidt, Two Rivers, Wisconsin
2. Philip McDonald, Huntsville, Alabama
3. Pete Wakely, Downers Grove, Illinois
4. Chris Eibl, Chicago, Illinois
5. Wayne Ellis, Evansville, Indiana
6. Billy Wasosky, Richmond, Virginia
7. Dave Cushard, Jackson, Michigan
8. John Buchanan, Lansing, Michigan

Two NFFC overall champs (Rob Benetti and Dave Gerczak) in one league. That's not too shabby.

Yea I didn't mean to slight anyone - just noting the two grand champs. Lot of good players in this league. Should be a real fun one to watch.

Wayne,

Like you said earlier, you like to see who your competition is more than your draft pick, well my advice is just look at your draft spot cuz you are in a tough league! WOW! They are all tough but glad I avoided this mess.

I wish I could have set my kds as Billywaz +/- 4. This is going to be a tough league.

Each city seems to have one loaded lge.

Apologies to all who drew the short straw and landed here. Tom - this group might need extra drink tickets at the break.
