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! [/QUOTE]Poopy it was one of the best weekends I've had no matter how good or bad my draft's turn out. Of course nothing beats winning and a large can of Pringles. Diesel can back me up on this! ROFL

Great time in Chicago. We had great facilitators for league 6. I thought everyone kept the draft pace up and it never got boring while waiting. Just an overall great experience especially for this being my 1st season in the NFFC (Live Draft).

Thanks again!!!!!

Greg:

WHAT A GREAT TIME!!! Draft Champions & Main Event in Vegas was terrific. Be sure to tell facilitator, "Rex", "thanks" from Nancy & I!!! He's the best! The ESPN Zone was great (what a steal...I'm sure they lost money with the drinks that were being served...wow!). Sorry our Wildcats couldn't cover your parlay. We had a four game parlay and fell one victory short of $1250...& no, it wasn't our AZ 'cats, it was the Cal Bears that did us in. Misery loves company, huh?

Nancy has just one word to say, "Championship"!!!
.....=).....

Thanks again, Greg. It is ALWAYS good to see you and the other NFFC "vets". GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

(One suggestion, be sure the draft boards are well light up...spot lights would be great. The lighting made it difficult to see the boards from a distance...or make sure we are drafting in the #1 - #3 spot so we can see it better......

...). THANKS AGAIN, GREG. THE NFFC IS THE BEST!!!

Thanks Bret. I think we all had a great time this weekend and the ESPN Zone party was special with such great people having drinks, good food, good sports all around us and great companionship. Mine was a mere $20 three-time parlay, but Arizona cost me $120 + the $20. Tell Nancy I still love her even though the Wildcats cost me a nice payday!

Championship it is, but nobody says it like her!

Great fun and there's only 362 days until we do it again at the Flamingo!

The ESPN Zone party will return in 2007. See ya there.

Vegas was great, Stardust couldn't have been better. Good food , draft room convenient, bars and pool fun. Too bad it will be torn down!!! Betus.com girls were a real plus.Need more of them next year, with more "group pictures" and photo opts.Actually checked out their web site.Facilitators were good. Brady at Ultimate needs to be cloned ,he was priceless. Thanks to all

We had a great time in Chicago.
Never seen so many great players at one time.
Wow.
We were seated right next to 'Rather Be Lucky Than Good'- Rick Titsler. That was nice.
The draft went smoothly for sure.
If we don't embarrass ourselves, we'll be there next year.
Thanks and good luck to everyone.

Great time as usual in Vegas! Thanks Greg for putting on a first class event and a nice party at the ESPN Zone afterwards. Nice seeing everybody and looking forward to a fun and profitable football season!

had an absolute blast. having packer jersyes on helped us get about 14 free drink tickets from our fellow nffc'ers in chicago. i don't know how much it helped our draft but boy did we get drinky.

As a first-timer I wasn't sure what to expect, but Vegas was a blast! Only problem was time...spent most of Friday taking it easy and planning for draft...Saturday, the post-draft free drinks were flowing along with the opinions and board analysis...a bunch of us stayed a couple of hours and the bar never closed. Of course that meant arriving at the ESPNZone party with a package on. For those that missed it, I would suggest reserving early next year - top notch job there Greg! By the time we left I had had so much top shelf that I retired to the bottom shelf for Saturday night in Sin City! Oh well, probably saved some coin. Suffice to say that regardless of the season outcome you can count me in again next year. Great job!

Greg, you run a very nice event. My only complaint was not being able to use all the drink tickets Rockey handed out.
