The Prize Distribution

Every league member will be given a FREE subscription to the 1999 TFL Report's Flash Update Premium Report (approx. retail value $40 per subscription). Bob Harris of the TFL Report http://www.tflreport.com/premium_fu.html is by far the NGFFL's most generous contributor providing well over $1000 in retail product at no charge to help all of our team owners get a season's worth of the best fantasy information on the planet. I can assure you after using his product in '98 that Bob holes himself up in his office for 4 straight days without sleep leading up to game day to provide you with EVERY piece of available information in the media and through his vast contacts. The TFL Report is the Official Fantasy News & Information Site for the NGFFL and we are delighted to run their sponsorship banner at the top of our site for the entire 1999 season.

I am proud to announce that Fantasy Insights and FFLNet are the Official Online Management Services of the NGFFL. Jim Lenz and Kevin Austin have graciously allowed our leagues the free use of their management services, and they will be the league's partners in running the leagues for years to come. We are delighted to run their sponsorship banners on our web pages for the forseeable future. We encourage you to visit Fantasy Insights at http://www.fantasyinsights.com for valuable free fantasy information and premium services, and visit FFLNet at http://www.fantasyinsights.com/products/ fflnet.htmlto learn about how this fantastic service could vastly improve your league's operations.

Dennis LePore, of Sandlot Shrink, has been kind enough to offer 2 FREE Regular Football Season Premium Packages to be distributed to certain 1999 winners in the NGFFL (approx. retail value $59 per subscription). Dennis runs a multi-dimentional fantasy site catering to fans of football, baseball, and basketball. If you go to http://www.sandlotshrink.com you will see he offers visitors 40% of his site filled with free news and information and 60% devoted to cramming page after page full of fantastic premium value. The Sandlot Shrink has long been known as one of the best fantasy sites around.

1997 FanEx Champ John Hansen, of the Guru's Fantasy Football Report, has generously offered 3 FREE subscriptions to his 2000 Premium Report to be distributed to certain 1999 winners in the NGFFL (approx. retail value $30 per subscription). After visiting John's site at http://fantasyguru.com/football/, you will understand why his premium service is considered one of the very best!

Jim Lenz, of Fantasy Insights, has graciously donated 2 FREE subscriptions to their 2000 Premium Report to be distributed to certain 1999 winners in the NGFFL (approx. retail value $30 per subscription). As the 2-time consecutive winner of the Dick Butkus Award for top Fantasy Football Web Site, you will understand why Fantasy Insights at http://www.fantasyinsights.com is considered the people's choice for fantasy football information.

David Dodds, Mr. Football himself, has generously donated 2 FREE Mr. Football "Because Losing Sucks" T-shirts (approx. retail value $11 per shirt) that will go to the 2 teams who win their league's Consolation Bowls with the highest number of points scored in the game. What better prize than a T-shirt that tells the world that losing sucks? Considered by many to be the top totally free fantasy football site on the internet, one visit to Mr. Football's site at http://www.mrfootball.com will tell you what many of us behind the scenes already know: David Dodds may be the hardest working guy in the sport providing the quality of free information and services you won't see anywhere else.

Jim Halpin, of Dream Sports, has graciously donated 4 FREE Fantasy Sports team franchises. The Runner-Up in each league's championship game (3) will receive a Free Fantasy Football Franchise for the 2000 season (approx. retail value $29 per team/franchise). In addition, the one (1) NGFFL Team not to play in a league championship game who has the highest 1 week team score from their starting lineup will receive a Free Fantasy Baseball Franchise for the 2000 season. The Prizes are also transferable. If a winner already has enough teams to keep him or her busy, it can be given away to a friend or passed down to the next best team, etc. Please take a moment to visit them at http://www.dreamsports.com and see why they have the best "Full-Service" leagues around.

William Del Pilar, of KFFL/NFLnews, has graciously donated 2 FREE 2000 Pre-season Draft Guides (approx. retail value $10 per guide) for use as prizes. One guide will go to the team in the NGFFL with the overall lowest points total for the season; the other will go to the team with the lowest overall win/loss record. If you visit http://www.kffl.com, you'll see the wealth of free fantasy information, tons of articles written by tons of writers, extensive premium services, and probably the most important, most frequently updated, free fantasy news site to visit several times daily: the Hot Off the Wire page at http://www.kffl.com/fantasy/hotwire.

The Distribution of the Prizes:

This is the temporary plan on how to divide up the prizes so generously offered by our fine sponsors. This plan is subject to change by the CEO anytime before the season starts.

1. Every team owner will receive a free subscription to The TFL Report for the 1999 season regardless of anything else that occurs. This is due to the enormous generosity of Bob Harris.

2. Each League Champ (3) will receive a free subscription to John Hansen's Guru's Ultimate Fantasy Football Report for the 2000 season.

3. The two (2) Consolation Bowl winners (out of 3 leagues) who score the highest number of points in that game will receive a Mr. Football "Because Losing Sucks" T-shirt from David Dodds. The 3rd winner will actually be the one to think losing getting this great t-shirt sucks. :)

4. The NGFFL Unification Title Game winner will receive a free subscription to Sandlot Shrink's Premium Report for the 2000 season. This prize will be given in addition to any other prize that may be won.

5. The NGFFL Points Champion will receive a free subscription to Sandlot Shrink's Premium Report for the 2000 season. This prize will be given in addition to any other prize that may be won; however, if the NGFFL Points Champion is also the Unification Title Game winner, this subscription will be awarded to the NGFFL Points Runner-up.

6. The NGFFL team who has the lowest win/loss record and the NGFFL team who has scored the least number of points for the season will both receive a free KFFL Pre-season Draft Guide for the 2000 season. The team with the lowest points total will get the first one, and then the remaining NGFFL team with the worst record will receive the second one. This prize is in addition to any other prize that may be won.

7. There will be two NGFFL team owners who will receive a free subscription to the Fantasy Insights Premium report for the 2000 season.

a) One subscription will go to the division winner in any NGFFL league that has the best win/loss record who did not receive one of the prizes listed above.

b) The 2nd subscription will go to the one team owner in all of the NGFFL, who in the sole determination of the CEO, has been the most active in attempting to make the NGFFL league fun to play in. This will include participating in league activities, interesting trash talking, finding ways to improve the league, talking up the league in the NG, etc. This prize may be awarded to a team owner who has already won a prize, but the CEO will take who has won prizes already into consideration before awarding this prize. Owners may nominate other owners for this award, and the CEO will take those nominations into consideration.

8. The runner-up in the 3 championship games will each receive a Dream Sports Fantasy Football Franchise in 2000. In addition, the one (1) NGFFL Team not to play in a league championship game who has the highest 1 week team score from their starting lineup will receive a Fantasy Baseball Franchise in the year 2000. These prizes may be awarded in addition to other prizes won.

NOTE 1: No NGFFL team owner may win more than 2 prizes with the exception of The TFL's Report that everyone receives no matter what. If a prize is left to be awarded, the CEO will award it on other merits.

NOTE 2: Any team owner who wins (or is offered) and accepts a prize must be a current NGFFL team owner during the time period of the prize. I.E., if an owner wins a subscription to a premium report for the 2000 season, they must remain an NGFFL team owner in 2000 to continue to receive the prize. If an owner quits or is removed during that time period, they will lose eligibility to receive that prize.

NOTE 3: The NGFFL Champion will also receive one more "goodie" for winning. They will have exclusive free use for one year of the email address [email protected]. This is a redirection email address meaning if you give out this email address, it will automatically redirect that email directly to any email address you choose. You will have the distinction for personal email and NG use to have your email shown as being the NGFFL CHAMP. Currently, it is set up to email me, but it will be transfered to you and then back from you for a one year period in recognition of your championship run.
