Got mine earlier today...nice read..funny FBG adds lol...no tickets..bummer. Dave thanks for getting it out so quickly but too bad there is no way to get the $3 off for the FBG.com subscription i paid for three weeks ago? That needs to be fixed so in the future if we prepay for the Mag we can get the discount even if we pay for the year ahead of time.

[suggestionbox] You do the subsriptions and mags every year, right? So why not package them, so if we order the subscription and the mag together, it's $3 (or more) off if you bought them separate? Even those buying 3 year subs can do it, in such a way so they almost get the mags for free.[/suggestionbox]
 
I have 2... Forgot I won the magazine along with the free 2008 subscription to FBG and went out and bought one.. They both arrived this week.. Wonder if I can give one back... :banned:

 
I went straight for the IDP section, nice read there, almost done with the IDPS. I noticed an error on the Arizona Cardinals page, looks like it didn't print a few sentences, starts off with a tail end of a sentence about Dansby and no other mention of any Cardinal LBS. Just a heads up if they get reprinted.

Is footballguys giving up on DVBD? No mention of it anywhere in this "Strategy Guide"

Of course not. It's at the center of the Draft Dominator's calculations. But how exactly can we translate that into magazine copy?

You can't, and for the general public who isn't into it you'd probaly turn them off and confuse them!

You could offer a brief explanation and a link here.
 
Got mine yesterday Maine, you guys forgot my ticket as well??? Good thing I got the Audible Trivia correct so I can get another magazine!

 
Bowling Green, KY.

Hoped yesterday - no.

expected today - again, no.

I double checked my paypal account to make sure trans. went through and it did 5/28.

oh, well. maybe Mon. :goodposting:

 
Okay I just got my package from FBG here in NJ.

About to open it and see if there's a golden ticket inside... :goodposting:

and...

well this is kinda gold...

...oh wait it's the coupon sheet..

...this sticker's got some kinda gold on it...

...wait that's blackeyed Joe...

...wait what's this....

...oh two more little stickers...

(starts shaking magazine furiously hoping golden ticket falls out)

...and...

Wait this one says "SCD Sports Update Presents" on the top corner. I've never heard of them before so maybe it's just a clever forgery and my golden ticket's coming monday ...

:( :D :o :o

Looked good before it went to the printer's. And I had so many insightful comments there. :D Here's the deleted lead-in to that section:IDP - If he could stay healthy for a full 16 game season,Karlos Dansby might be considered a top ten IDP LB bynow. Despite the scheme change to a 3-4 front last year,Dansby projected to a solid 90+ solo tackles and addedmultiple big play stats. He should again be a productiveIDP starter. Gerald Hayes deserves a roster spot in deeperleagues, but doesn’t have the upside that Dansby provides.
 
I want my money back, or at least a portion. The magazine is available here in Ottawa, Canada in-store and at cost of $6.99. WTF ? Why did I pay pre-order it for $12.99 ?

And it costs us $9.95 to mail it via Priority mail to Canada. We charge more than the cover price (for both US and international orders) because of the cost of priority postage and the fact we package it with things you won't get at the news stand. We are fine with people buying at the news stand. But with a limited distribution of just 100,000 magazines some people don't have that option.
 
I say we invade Canada. That should bring the price down!

:shrug:

I've worked my way past the grief stage and am now ready to dig into the magazine more :fishing:

Serious props. I really enjoyed the IDP stuff, it was well thought out and had good explanations so now I few new targets in my sights... which is what it's all about in dynasty. :sleep:
 
Got it, started reading.

Not surprising, some of the articles are nothing new, but then, I'm here on a Saturday night :thumbup:

Some others though are quite interesting, mad props.

The mailman stole my golden ticket - who do I report that to?

Can I get a dollar for having to read this(along with everyone else who read it), it wasted my time and my time is valuable. WTF. :cry:
 
I want a golden ticket and I want it now daddy!!!

I have to sit through a horrible BBQ tomorrow and I needed this to read !! LOL Now I have to be social and interact with these people!

Damn the US postal service!!! Damn them all to hell!!

 
My poor mag is sitting alone,cold and scared in the post office. I should break in and rescue him from this horrible torture.

Soon....we shall be together!!

I got mine on Saturday. No ticket...I thought being a Cheetsheets.com memeber at one time would give me an extra shot, but no... ;) I was wondering the same thing. I get in early on my membership and the mag and then I can't use the coupon. It would certainly be nice if I could use it...Thanks for an excellent job as usual!! The mag looks great!!!

We purposely issue the coupon AFTER the earlybird discount. We don't offer any discount greater than the $20.95 earlybird. If you bought for $26.95 and then bought the magazine, we can paypal you back $3. Just send us an email and we can verify both orders and issue a $3 rebate.
 
Mine came Saturday (tampa bay area) unfortunately no golden ticket, I was a little unimpressed as compared to the previous years of the magazine, I was shaking my head when you said draft jason campbell and sheffler wont most of these guys go undrafted anyways? I am targetting Hasselback or Bulger in the 7th-8th rounds do you think Campbell will outperform those guys?

Last year you guys were dead on when you suggested Romo and Witten, I was wondering what the rest of you thought about the perfect draft article??
