Hello everyone! Thanks for you appraisals. I usually agree with most valuations, but I have to disagree today.

2 word names are gonna be semi worthless for now
This is quite an odd statement with no merit really. You have generalized all .mobis. To you they may not be worth money, but in the open market Keywords dominate. How can you justify that statment? Here are sales of Mobis with 2-3 word in it that are not worthless by any means:

So basically you are saying that all the above names have no value because 2 and 3 word names are worth regfee. I dont mind when someone gives me a low appraisal, it is your right, all I ask is you back up your valuation with any facts or reasoning instead of saying regfee. When I value someones name I give supporting facts, I dont just say 2 words are worthless regfee, -thats ridiculous.
While it is true some portions of .Mobi is oversaturated, the same thing can be said for just about every extension within certain niche markets. Like I said earlier in my post, Hockey is considered one of the most popular sports around. If you are an avid .Mobi follower, supporter or register alot of them you would know how difficult it is now to get a quality name like this. Just about every decent CollegeSport.Mobi is taken, If were to try to get CollegeHockey.com from its current owner how much do you suppose he would want for it? Lets say .Mobi was worth 3 percent of the .com value, Im sure collegehockey.com would sell in the XX,XXX range even at 3% of 10,000 it would be $300. $20-30 is below reg-fee, which I would have to stupid to sell for. If you check out the .Mobi forum alot you will see people are registering horrible names everyday- not even keywords, they are adding i and e in front of everything completely eliminating any chance of type-ins in the future. I think the value of this name is well beyond many of the names I listed. It is shorter very specific, one of the top sports in the entire world, you know college people are going to want to chek out scores. You have to realize, College folks (18-23) are the main demographics for .Mobi. According to overture popularity it goes College Football, College Basketball, College Hockey Then College Baseball. Any other appraisals?
