Okay gentlemen we have our squads... I picked ackdog's team last because I didn't know which conference he'd have to go into.

Regarding scheduling: I propose that we all play each other twice at your own convenience, once at home and once on the road. Post challenge times and results here.

Neiname proposed a nice playoff schedule. He's also volunteered to be the statistician of the league, so if you want to send the results and stats to him, we can set up a leaderboard.

neiname - I'll look for you tonight, maybe around 11:00 or so. I have to wait for my son to go to sleep or else he'll mess my game up big time. Anyone else playing tonight?

I goofed and posted a new thread instead of just a reply to this one.

What I previously said was:

I should be able to play a game or two Sunday night. You can email me at [email protected]. Or just login and find me, but I don't know what time yet.

P.S. - I also love MechAssault, I'll play that as well.

What stats do you want? Team stats, Individual or both? Also, where will the stats be kept?

League question? How do you all feel about saving replays? I saved a int returned for a TD last night and the group of guys I was playing got pissed. Even tho' they talked all the junk in the world

rabbit77

I guess we could keep the stats right here in this thread, if neiname wants to compile them... I was thinking team stats only, since individual would be a bit overbearing

Somebody in the last thread proposed
Total Offense
Total Running
Total Passing
Total Interceptions
Total Sacks

I kinda like that - nice and simple. Did anyone who played the first game record the above stats? One word of warning, though... as soon as someone forgets to record their game's stats, then it pretty much debunks the value of all the stats from the other games... would we able to record these stats for all 169 games?

neiname

Stats that are needed at the end of games
Please send to my email... I will be out from December 22 till Jan 2 so nothing will be updated till then.

Team #1 vs. Team #2

Team #1
Total Offense:
Total Running:
Total Passing:
Total Interceptions:
Total Sacks:
Total TDs:
Total FGs:

Team #2
Total Offense:
Total Running:
Total Passing:
Total Interceptions:
Total Sacks:
Total TDs:
Total FGs:

Please make an effort to write these down each game as they will be useless if we are not diligent in recording them. IMPORTANT Please write down your opponents stats also so in case they forget we have some record...

Kojack

If we're doing stats, what time limit are we doing on the games?

Sorry, I'm new to this...and new to the game.

Thanks,

John

I'm getting my PS2 Network adapter next week. And i have NFL 2k3 that i picked up at bestbuy last week.

Can i join with my PS2 copy, or is this like an XBOX only thing?

I've never been in an online league (fantasy or other) so does anybody mind Walking me through whats involved? Perhaps a small FAQ is in order

ClarkKentKY

Can we rename this thread:

The Official DVDTalk XBOX NFL2k3 League thread Part I


Just so us PS2 folks don't get too teased.

Anybody want to play right now?

Hey bro if your still there i'll accept it right now. But i will not be able to check back online.

K.. I'm gonna connect up to NFL2K3.

Anyone thats online feel free to play. I'm gonna add in everyone to my friends list and see if anyone is online for a game.

Deadpool

OK I have a stupid question. I'm trying to set everyone up on my friend list. Problem is it doesn't give me a option to add a friend. I've hit and clicked every button on the controller and all I get are options to delete a friend, go back to the previous screen & show "Help" So far Rabbit77 & neiname have sent me friend list offers and I accepted them. For some reason I can't locate this anywhere This would really be cool if I could get this to work so I could see when everyone is online.

rabbit77

It took me forever to figure this out too... What you have to do is boot up your X-Box without a game in it (or open the tray) and in th emain menu go to XBox Live ---> Account Management ---> your Gamertag ---> Friends ----> Add Friend.
