The wife and I have our teams, but we are NFL fans, we start watching the ESPN pregame at 11 am and we don't stop watching until the Sunday night game goes off. We have thought about getting Titan season tickets, but we enjoy watching the games on TV too much.

I did see a video on the website that showed them setting up a league. it looked like you can pick the time frame in which you can play your game. I will set this to 7 days giving us a week to play. i imagine you just get in contact with whoever you play and agree on a time to play. my schedule is 2nd shift so i would need to play at nights the days i work or anytime on my days off. we can always set up a test league before the real one to see whats up.

I would think any day during those weeks game would suffice, no need to nail it down to a specific day for everyone.

I'm in too.

1 Seahawks
2 Vikings
3 dont care


My only concern is that in this league people play like real football and not look for screwy little exploits. Randy Moss as place kicker to do run fakes on PAT's, that kind of crap. Anyone else have an opinion on this?

I think having this a DVDTalk league should stymie play like that. But at any time if something like that should occur definately air the complaint on the website forum and collectively we can remedy it. I am sure it won't be a problem though.

we are playing along with the regular NFL season. you will play one game every seven days. i am guessing that you will contact whoever you play and you two will setup a time to play during the week.

I would prefer that we do NOT wait until the NFL starts, and we look at like an in two weeks start date. Trust me, not everyone is going to still be playing in January.

Taking everyones first choice, sometimes second if there was one it would look like this:

Copenhagen = Denver Broncos
Obey the D = NY Jets
goLucky = Dallas Cowboys
Rocketsauce = Chicago Bears
noonan 4224 = NE Patriots
s}{ammer = Seattle Seahawks
Michael Sheridan = NY Giants
Demontooth = Detroit Lions
raven56706 = Philedelphia Eagles
edison = KC Chiefs
nickdawgy = San Fransico 49'ers
policy = San Diego Chargers
Thor = ????
Raul3 = Oakland Raiders
deadlax = Cleveland Browns
TheDude = Baltimore Ravens
nevermind = Miami Dolphins
1998Nole = Atlanta Falcons
shaggy = Green Bay Packers
Ginsu = Minnesota Vikings
NeonGlow = ????
matrixrok9 = St. Louis Rams
DamingR = Indianapolis Colts
Quake1028 = ????

That leaves 3 unaccounted and the following teams left:

Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, Pittsburgh Steelers, Tennessee Titans, Arizona Cardinals, Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Washington Redskins.

I do see a point there. There is room for only three more teams. I will sort everything out tonight when I get off work. I was thinking of just having a straight draft, instead of the three choices thing. It will be easier to do. I found a website with a random number generator. Whatever numer is next to your name on list in the first post of this thread, is your number. I will generate 32 numbers and whatever order the website puts them in that will be the draft order and i will than post the results. Hopefully we can all pick our teams quickly. as soon as we fill the three remaining spots i will do this.
