Let's give it up for the return of another original NFFC member as the tag team of Erik Newman and Brian Kane of St. Paul, Minnesota will be returning to the NFFC's main event at the Flamingo Las Vegas on Saturday, Sept. 1st. Eric has been with us since 2004 and we're glad to see him back in 2007. Eric led his Sizzlin Sevens team to a 9-4 record in Las Vegas League 5 last year, which tied for the best record, but finished out of the money with 1,466.65 points. Sizzlin Sevens then finished 28th overall in the Consolation Round. Erik obviously wasn't thinking clearly when he signed up on Tuesday as he should have waited until Saturday (7/07/07) to do it with this team name!!

Welcome aboard guys and best of luck this year in the hunt for the $100,000 grand prize and the $5,000 league prize.

Welcome aboard Todd and we look forward to you being more active on the NFFC boards as well. It's great to have the 2006 WCOFF champ competing in both events this year and you will have a shot at becoming the first NFFC-WCOFF champ, something I know Mark Srebro, Jason Emma, Josh Ferenc and Rob Benetti are also trying to accomplish. Welcome to the NFFC family and I trust we'll treat you just like anyone else (like dog poop!).

We'll have some drinks together in Vegas.

Brett earned $2,500 last year and had a shot at the grand prize as he led his Satisfaction Guaranteed team to a 6-7 record in Las Vegas League 5, placing 20th overall and second in the league with 1,756.0 points. Satisfaction Guaranteed then finished 13th overall in the Championship Round with 553.48 points.
