Footballguys 2006 Strategy Guide (1 Viewer)

Needless to say I am going to be checking the mail every day till this comes in. I want an ooompa loompa now daddy!

 
If only I had $2,628 to burn, I'd buy 1/12 of those magazines right f'in now...

...the drama around here leading up to those tickets being found is going to be priceless...

...wait a minute - if Dodds = Willie Wonka, then which of the staff is Sluggworth?

...I'm thinkin' Shick!... :ph34r:

 
Thanks for the early admission, guys. Golden ticket, here I come! :banned:

I'm excited about the chance to finish 12th among 12 lucky winners. :bag:

Will any of the "Optimizing Your Subscription Articles" only be available in the magazine or will they all be available on the website?
Leveraging the Lineup Dominator will appear in the magazine first. All of the other articles in this series will appear on the website first. We will release an extended Lineup Dominator article on the website in August.
 
I thought you'll were going to add the game-by-game stat breakdowns for each player this year?
This was in our original plan (to add a large table) in the team pages showing all of this. In the final cut of this magazine though, adding 32 extra pages for the team reports simply cut too many other features out of the magazine. We have added stat boxes for each of the players.
 
Which ADP data did you use for the value plays articles?
At the time we wrote the article their wasn't a great list available (too few drafts), but we used a composite Antsports / My Fantasy League / Experts rank to slot everyone. I think it is pretty close. This feature will be updated and placed on the website in about 10 days here with a much better ADP list to compare to.

:thumbup: Looking forward to that.

 
I'm an admitted cheapskate, but decided it was worth it to order one. I don't have a FBG subscription and have been on the fence the past two years... but again, I'm cheap. I get so much valuable free info here and at the message board that I figured I could at least shell out a little $ for the mag... plus, FBG does excellent work and I sort of want an actual FF magazine to have around the house this year.

 
I tried to buy and got this:

any word yet about your Canadian friends?
Hi Cowboys,I'm sorry but for now, the answer is US shipments only.

We're going to continue to look to see how we might resolve but for now the answer is US only. Sorry.

hi JB/DD,

just ordered.

have a question for ya.

i went to the draftsheet link and it was the 2005 version.

it said that there was only one size available.

is there going to be a smaller single size version this year, or will it still be the 4x6 only?

thanks for any info.

 
Stumbled across your mag last year and it really blows away the competition.

Oh, forget $100-$200, the value of your lifetime supply of FBG magazine should be "Priceless!" .

The ROI is immeasurable. :D

:wall: :sadbanana: damn, really wanted to get in on this.

ill still be in for a mag when they hit the shelves though. :)

 
One for me and another for my brother.

Like playing the lotto, plus I get the extra toilet reading material to boot!

 
I just spent about 23 hours in the car with my 6 year old. She watched Willie Wonka four times.

How could I NOT take a chance on the Golden Ticket?

My order is in :thumbup:

Say it ain't so Joe :( Looks like the Aussie's miss out as well. We don't even get a chance to find one on the news stands either.

What if I were willing to pick up the tab for the extra postage??

Provided I don't have to sever a vein I'd be more than happy to chip in a little extra for the privelige.....

 
I am working the karma angle to the hilt for the golden ticket. I am a retired guardsman submitting his order on Memorial Day. Pretty good start. I just returned home from my son's wedding and now this morning, my daughter called and is apparently on her way to the hospital to have my frist grandchild, maybe I could talk her into the name "Joseph David."

Red letter weekend all the way around. Really hope for an early shipment as I leave on vacation June 14th.

Looking forward to the mag and the new season! :pics:

 
Ordered!

I usually don't need much info into the season, but this mag AND the training camp reports is total value for 9 dollars! Plus I always love having a magazine to read when I'm on the plane and what not and least I can do to support FBG!

So it should be shipped aorund June 19 to 22?

 
Shoutout to my Bro David Dodds for the Golden Ticket thing. I love that idea. 12 lucky readers that order the magazine online get to play in a league where the prize pool is $1,000.

Expect the copycat wannabee sites to do something similar.

Hope some guys from the Shark Pool win them. :thumbup:

J
Are the ones going to the book stores going to be wrapped in plastic?
 
One of the extras is a PDF Stat Book. Is this an updated Stats Book similar to the book in 2004?

Thanks,

Roger
Hi SS,Yes, it's exactly like the stats book. You'll like it if you liked the stats book :thumbup:

Hi NYS,No, the ones on the newstands won't be wrapped. But they won't have tickets. The Golden Tickets are not going to be in any of the mags on the newstands. All the Golden Tickets will be in the magazines that are sold by us online.

Hang tight for now. Right now, the answer is no but we're working on a possible solution. J

 
Good news my Canadian Brethren. We should have something set up here tonight or tomorrow to accomodate you. And you overseas guys as well.

Daddy, I want a Golden Ticket...NOW!!!

:verucasalt:

Well done DD, JB and crew. This  :banned: 's for you!!!
:thumbup: Just ordered,you guys did a great job last year.

Do we get a tour of the FBG factory with the "golden ticket"? I'd love to meet al the "oompa loompa's" that put everything together.
if word got out that the oompa loompas were in play it could cause mass hysteria & topple governments...
 
International link now added. Cost is $12.99 to send to outside the US via Global Priority Mail.
David,I ordered this yesterday at $8.99 but I live in Canada. Can I send you the $4 difference by PayPal or do we need to cancel and have me order at $12.99?

Thanks...
