...so the insurance company quoted you a higher price than 15K, eh?...no bluff, SNAKE is willing RIGHT NOW to put up the 1mm in cash which he won from last year's NFL playoffs/Super Bowl wagers into an escrow account for 15K from Krause RIGHT NOW with the assumption there are at least 200 players in each league (otherwise no deal)...who needs the insurance company?... Greg, you know how to reach The Serpent if you so desire...SNAKE Yeah, I'm sure NBC and F+W will jump at the chance to invest this with the Snake Insurance Company. Thanks big guy, but we'll keep looking at Geico. [/QUOTE]While I think Snake had good intentions, Greg's response literally had me spitting my drink all over the rug!!!

Seriously Greg, maybe you could ask Snake's bookie to finance this....... that is unless Snake already cleaned him out!

[/QUOTE]I'm just trying to catch YOU, Johnny!

It would be fun to win a week, though...I'll take a Pete Rose signed ball.

~Lance [/QUOTE]Hey, Mr. Baseball. Can you win the Weekly Prize in the NFBC this week?? Take a picture of you first through Wednesday's games as that's a nice feat indeed. Good luck the rest of the week and I'll be cheering for Mr. Rollins this weekend.

I have a Pete Rose autographed baseball on my desk just waiting for you. But the Weekly Prize is even better as our new sponsor is all locked up. You'll like the prize....if you win it. [/QB][/QUOTE]Lance is 15-35 2 hr 11 rbi 8 runs, 2-0 8ip 10k 0er 0.75 whip tonight..

Ship the ball!!

Greg...you've mentioned that there will be a bonus prize for the individual player who has the best combined score for both Main Events. Any idea yet what that bonus amount will be? I know that you haven't exactly determined how that will be measured (total points, final ranking, etc.), but it would be nice to know what the award will be, since this is a much more realistic goal and I suspect that multiple players will be in the running for this prize right up until the final week.

No need to guess insurance rates on this one...the chance of occurrence is 100%! Greg...I'm not sure you ever responded to my question here...any word yet?

a bonus prize?

instead of one person, how about the top 3 or top 5 people that score the most combined points win something?

But I'll definitely put something together. Right now I think it would make sense to give free entries into both events in 2009 to the top finisher in both contests, but let's see if we can find a sponsor and maybe top even that. Or maybe NBC Sports will even have a better idea surrounding their telecasts of the Super Bowl and Pro Bowl. We'll need to sit down and talk this one through.
