    I think it was discussed that instead of Round 2 being "immediately after Round 1" it'd be "a few weeks after" ... that doesn't sound quite as far away as Christmas to me. With that said, there's also always something else going on around the BIF community, so keep your eyes open for those as well.

    Protip- Sports BIFs are probably the most common type by quantity; it's a little more "sports betting" than it is "BIF" but they're no less fun.

    Sounds good. I'm traveling for work and tied up the next couple weeks. Come November I'll be back in action for round 2.

    Do I sense some inter-BIF trading?

    You are. I'm posting from home and my spreadsheet is at work. I was using my inbox to list everyone and I think you joined up in the thread, so I missed it. Good news is that I did the selection from work on Saturday.

    Stepped a bit out of my comfort zone today away from IPA's and bought the following. Well, I did get 2 IPA's.
    Didn't check the date of the FBS, figuring it is new. Nearly a year old, but don't think that matters, right?

    FBS holds up pretty well on its own. Coffee fades and the hops aren't in the forefront, but definitely still enjoyable.

    That Schlafly TIPA is a favorite! So good.
