View Full Version : This is ridiculous...let's get a genuine 2007 NFL league already!

I was part of the "team" that was trying to get an NFL league established. It didn't happen. I do not have time to commish any longer with my job but I definitely want in a league that offers me an NFL experience using up-to-date rosters/teams as well as using the new 2007 game. This shouldn't be so difficult! I've seen so many people around here posting about a new NFL league. Let's put our heads together and get this moving.

I also start back to my grad classes next week so I will strictly be a GM. However, I am willing to put in some leg work to get things up. I created and previously commished the NFLsim (TPF) and NFL Front Office (FOF2004). I can offer assistance but cannot be relied upon as a full-time commish etc.

Someone take charge. I'll be here to lean on.

To start with we should start taking names, get a website up and running (it's easy to make something relatively attractive) and setup a forum to keep interest moving while we take names. It wouldn't hurt to get a league file up ASAP to allow GMs a chance to look things over.

I'd be down for a real 2007 NFL League as well. No chance I can commish, but I could help run a stage file/draft every once in awhile if needed.

Steelers, of course.

I am guessing you some how missed this thread, where Shakes was looking for team owners for the last month and a half..http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/showthread.php?t=53922

Sounds like the EFL (run by Shakes) is the league for you Mike, the waiting list only has 1 other person on I think. This league is in its first season, week 10, using FOF2007. Website and active forum.

Also, I will say this. I figure in another 2 weeks (EFL sim time) there will be openings (plural). I PMed you once before Mike but you didnt get back to me. Maybe you were busy.

Oh, I thought I did respond. I'm looking to get into a league at either the beginning or during an offseason. I'm not interested in joining a league midseason.

Good luck!

Guess I can wait until mid february then if you want to join then (thats the estimate date of EFL Bowl I...or whenever a better name comes up)

Why not put your name on the list, perhaps by the time it comes up, it will be time for the off-season. Or, you can sit here and wait for a league to form, get all the owners in place, set the rules and you will be ready to begin.

Wonder what will happen first?

I am in no particular type of rush. I have plenty of other things to do with my life.

No prob, based on the title of the post, This is ridiculous... it sounded as if you were in a hurry to get something started.

Oh, ha, no not really in much of a rush. I was just seeing if anyone was interested. I've had a handful of people want a team but aside from that, not a whole lot of action. Either way, life will go on! I'm excited to see what Arlie Rahn's new pro football game will look like. I really liked TPF but it needed a revision. Hopefully this will be it.

RNFL is going to be going to 2K7 at the end of our current season, so you could get on the waiting list there if you would like.
