Did Anyone Have Fun On Draft Day?

Okay, I haven't made a post in 7 days as I was immersed in the 14th Fantasy Sports Trade Conference, then taking care of Lumpy and Gekko during the Trade Conference Experts League and Poker Tournament (which Gekko won) and then running three days of the NFFC event in Las Vegas. I'm ready to hear some feedback from everyone who attended in Las Vegas, New York and Chicago. Give it to me straight!

I had seven days of Corona's, so it's time to work out again!

Whew, we had some fun. It looked like everything went smooth in Las Vegas and the drafts were all very competitive. The Sunday Ultimate League was the capper of a great, great weekend of fun.

I'm back, so say hi on the boards and let me know how things went with the NFFC. Does Tom need a promotion or a demotion?

Was Rocky more accommodating with the drink tickets in Chicago this year? Did the BetUS.com girls make your day a little brighter in Las Vegas?

Was the ESPN Zone party the best $30 bargain you ever saw?

Oh, and best of luck in the hunt for the $100,000 grand prize. May the best man or woman win!

A great time had here as well Greg. Thanks for putting it all together.

One suggestion for the future...
Why not have a facilitator enter the picks into the website as the draft goes on? Seems like the facilitator at the table keeping the small draft board could just as easily enter them on the website. All of these hotels have wireless access now.

Again, enjoyed it very much... thanks!

Yeah the party at the Espn Zone was a blast!!! Thanks for only charging $30 for the night because like you said it was a hell of a bargain. Great once again and of course I'll be back in Vegas for the 2007 NFFC

LOL. Too funny! And a security guard next to every can of Pringles!

It was the best weekend I've had since last March! Thank you!

Ed This is one of those times when the slogan "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" needs to be adapted for New York.
