Does Fanball own FFOC

John, I'm not sure what comment you're referring to that I supposedly heard. As Greg said, Fanball has run the back end for the FFOC. That's what I know. I was sitting next to Ryan you were sitting across from me. It went like this:

Me: Ryan does Fanball own FFOC?
Ryan: Yes
Me: Tom, did you hear that?
Tom: Yes, I never knew that.

I was not hearing things, I was not drinking. Why I asked the question was I invested 1,500.00 in FFOC. Now there not paying out. So my take on it, is Fanball wants to walk away from a poorly run Contest that has lost lots of money, after they bought a Contest(NFFC) that makes money and can grow.

It is what it is.

Nothing personal Tom, but your in a spot that you can only say what you said above.

Ryan, come clean and be a Man.

John, I don't remember that conversation and that's the truth. To follow up, I don't recall any conversations about FFOC from that night. I recall a lot of discussion about the NFFC, NFBC and even WCOFF. But I don't recall anything discussed about FFOC. If a conversation between yourself and Ryan occurred, I don't recall what was said.

Like I said, it's up to Ryan to be honest. It was a business/investment question for me. So I know what Ryan said.

Then this sounds like a conversation you should have with Ryan. Greg has told you he'll provide Ryan's contact info if you want it.

What does "run the back end" mean?

(OK, that doesn't sound right, but I'm being serious...)

Why is Fanball cutting the checks for the FFOC?

(OK, that doesn't sound right, but I'm being serious...) It means they provided the stat information. For example, STATS has provided the back end for the NFFC. That's who provides the stats you see every day, provides the programming to make free-agent pickups, set lineups etc. That all has come from STATS. That's what Fanball has done for FFOC.

[/QUOTE]Yes, he sure can John. And I've told him you are asking these questions here. You guys can enlighten all of us about FFOC on the NFFC boards while you're at it. Go for it.

Again, you can contact me for Ryan's number or email if you want to go over your conversation with him. If that's your source, then you two can talk. I have no dealings with FFOC, so talk with Ryan and let us all know my friend. In the meantime, Tom and I need to get NFFC live.

Thanks,
