Front Office Midget has set up a new forum for this league, located here:
http://pub30.bravenet.com/forum/show.php?usernum=2513374781

As decided by polling, we will be normalizing the NFL roster file, then using that without a draft.

Front Office Midget has generously volunteered to serve as commissioner of the league, and Snowman has managed to locate some web space for us.

[Front Office Midget]

I'd be willing to serve as commish. As far as web space.... I have no web space other than freeservers. I'm not sure how big these commissioner files are, and whether or not a freeservers, geocities, etc. would work.

As far as rosters, my personal preference would be real NFL rosters, real NFL players normalized. However, it's natural a democracy. I accidentally casted my vote for real NFL players in the other thread, instead of normalized. Not sure what I was thinking. But yeah, the final results should take on away from real and add one to normalized.

Also, my friend Nathan from school will also want to join this league. Not sure what team though. He's new to FOF.

[Front Office Midget]

Dola

And Dean Houston Memorial League is fine with me as a name.

[Volvox]

The name is fine with me. Players, real or fictional, doesn't matter. I'd like to start with actual rosters one way or the other though. Not a draft.

[Chappy]

I'll take Oakland and fictional or real it doesn't matter to me.

[The Jedi Monkey]

I'd like Washington.

[-Mojo Jojo-]

Chappy and Jedi Monkey, your choices are noted above.

[nfgrawker22]

Give my dad arizona...his email is [email protected] so make his name scottair1

[Ufer]

I'll take any of:
1 Tennessee
2 Miami
3 Houston
4 San Diego
5 KC


I'll play with any configuration and I'm willing to start with a bad team if real rosters are used.
my email is [email protected]

I'm happy to contribute $$ for web space and/or admin fees -- email me -- but unfortunately have no time to help on these.

[waltwal]

i will take sf 49ers. if not available i will take any team. walt arnold [email protected]

[airitallout]

Please note that scottair1 and airitall out are tha person (me). I was having dufficulty getting my password sent to me - so i made a new profile.....sorry for the confusion. I'm paying for it with arzonia anyway.

[airitallout]

Can I change to Saint Louis?

[nfgrawker22]

Loser taking st louis....:p

[SnowMan]

Looks like I'll be able to get us some webspace, but I've got 0 web design skills, so we'd need a webmaster.

[Vinatieri for Prez]

Just saw the threads. Any chance I can still jump in as NE Patriots?

[-Mojo Jojo-]

Everything has been updated in the top post through this point.

Vinatieri, PM me your email address.

[spindoctor]

I would like Denver or Kansas City if they are not taken. My email is [email protected]. Thanks

[Shkspr]

Looking at what's left, I'll put in now for Baltimore.

[Buhbooh2]

I'll take Jacksonville...
[email protected]

[Mr Nice Guy]

I would Like Houston
[email protected]

[Nwobhm]

I'll take miami.
[email protected]

[ChifBastard]

I'd like the Kansas City Chiefs

[email protected]

[ChifBastard]

Also, I'd like to say that if you guys want i can design the league's web site and be the webmaster. i used to work as a webdesigner so i would be easy for me. The problem is that i don't have webspace. I can set up a site at a freespace server but those are not very reliable. Also if we find a server that can run ASP, i could make a much better/powerful and easy to update site. Let me know what you guys think!!

[SnowMan]

Guys, the website is up. It's still in progress so many links don't work, etc. I'm working on getting the forum up and running, gotta wait until I hear back from the guy who's hosting the SQL database for it.

Anyways, here it is: dhmfl.phyrebird.com (http://dhmfl.phyrebird.com)

[Front Office Midget]

Awesome work.

[SnowMan]

Yep, credit goes to ChifBastard, our webmaster. Didn't hear about the db tonight, maybe tomorrow (tho it's a holiday, who knows).

[Sharpie]

Really awesome, two probs though.

1. Schedules is spelled wrong on the home page.. minor but still.

2. Forum link doesn't work at all.

Aside from this it looks really cool. Great job.

I see, i missed a c there...Sorry bout that. It'll be corrected for the next update along with some other corrections(at the vikings and the lions team pages it says "Chicago Bears"). Anyway, thanks for the feedback. All sugestions/ideas/reviews are wellcome!

[SnowMan]

Page is updated, and I've got us a temp forum until I can sort out the database for our permanent forum. The forum link on the homepage will lead you there.

[eodgooch]

I would like to join this league. I see that NJ Jets are available? Really I don't mind which team I get. Website is really good.

Gooch

[GoldenEagle]

Good luck with the league

[Pocketaces9900]

Id be more than happy to be either San Diego or Arizona...Please email me or AIM me at [email protected]

[Archer219]

I'd love to play.

I'll take Arizona since Pocketaces has no preference.

e-mail is [email protected]

[brownsfan_brad]

Crap, looks like the league is full. Put me #1 on the waiting list. Thanks!

[SnowMan]

commish seems to be MIA for the weekend, I'm hoping it's just the holiday. Anyways, the real forum is up, just not linked yet from the main page, until the site is updated. You can reach the new forum at http://dhmfl.phyrebird.com/forum

[ctrane_crash]

2nd me on the waiting list! Don't care what team it is, so if anyone drops out, let me know!

[email protected]

[Front Office Midget]

Arizona is still available. Deadline for first files is this Saturday, 7 pm EST.

[Flasch186]

guys hope you dont mind i copied your short participant tutorial for the USFL. I think it is excellent, short and concise...the pictures are super helpful and i thanked you right on the front page of our site for it. If you send me a link to oyur website ill put that on there too, since our leagues are totally different (mine fictional / yours NFL). Thanks again.

That's alright with me... but it's not my work, so my say doesn't really matter.

Regardless, our official site is http://www.phyrebird.com/users/dhmfl/index.htm
