League forming now

Jave · 02-15-2005, 10:06 AM

The Franchise Football League is now taking applications for potiental owners.
Details:
1. Real NFL teams
2. Original NFL cities to start. Moves will be allowed.
3. NFL player names will be used when possible. First 2 drafts will use the available draft files for 2004/2005
4. 25 round allocation draft . Time consuming I know, however, I want the owners to create their teams from scratch.
5. Two games a week to be played on Tuesdays and Fridays.
More details will be provided as the league begans to fill.

I am a 2 year vet of FOF-MP. I have been involved in half a dozen leagues at one time or another, although I do not post here at the FOF forums. If you are interested in joining, please visit the forums and stake claim to your team. The allocation draft will commence when enough owners have signed up and are ready.

The 25 round allocation draft sounds interesting. Count me in.

I didn't see a way to start a new post or reply to a post, so I pm'ed you.

although 1 game a week isn't enough to hold owner interest. you gotta go with the 2 games a week schedule from the start. the first year is crucial, gotta get a nucleus/core of good owners. the first season would take like 1 year basically real time.

Yes, and others agreed with you. I have now changed the schedule to the 2 games a week.

i want to let you know in advance how difficult that draft is going to be. Have no preconceieved notions it will be a ton of work and you, my friend, have taken a huge, monumental task and i applaud you for it. Great luck to you.

JeeberD · 02-16-2005, 10:51 AM

Dammit, this is tempting so that I could finally have my Cowboys in a MP league, but I have too much on my plate as it is.

Damn.

Yes, I tottally agree. However, I have the advantage of some of the best owners around, and have surrounded myself with outstanding assistants. For most of us, this is our 3rd or 4th league we are currently in, so nothing is new. It won't be perfect, however, it will be a major improvment over "other" leagues I watched start that turned into a clusterf*$k.

Jave · 02-16-2005, 05:46 PM

Current Open Teams:

AFC East
New England

AFC North
Baltimore

AFC South

No, in fact, I was in the USFL for a short time and enjoyed it. I would still be there today, however, at that time I was in 6 leagues at once and decided to scale back my teams and concentrate on just a couple. The USFL was run well and I had no issues there!

Jave · 02-17-2005, 09:34 AM

League files will be due by saturday, so if you have not saved your team yet, do it now! Draft order will be announced Sat, at noon. Get your team, get in on the ground floor of creating a franchise you can call your own! Time is running out........

aquatix · 02-18-2005, 01:35 PM

woot, hurry all, only a few teams left! Draft is Monday!
