I just did, you made me re check eveything and I forgot one guy on the depth chart.... Thanks for the reminder

Cringer · 09-05-2008, 08:46 PM

So I guess it's a bad year if I don't make it to 800 wins this year eh?

Young Drachma · 09-05-2008, 08:47 PM

Here's the logo for next year, the 15th anniversary of FOOL.

muns · 09-05-2008, 08:48 PM

Speaking of 15 years, did we come up with something about the hall yet?

1981. We said 20 years hence. So...that's when it'll be.

Alan T · 09-05-2008, 09:00 PM

I'm going to retire in 1980 so I can be the first manager elected to the hall

Sorry, would've been here sooner, but reposting all of Alan's championships banners takes like 20 minutes.

Maybe if he would let go of having both the CL and FOOL banners in FOOL Champ years like some of us it could cut down on the time.

Young Drachma · 09-05-2008, 09:36 PM

Maybe it is because I've played OOTP leagues with Chief since almost as long as OOTP multiplayer existed, but he's always been one of my favorite coaches. Some pretty huge shoes to fill coming in after Chief I think.

kaosfere · 09-05-2008, 09:50 PM

So far so good... I'd be thrilled with 4th...

I wouldn't be suprised to see one of their players have more HR than my entire team.
