Is anyone interested in another season? Not pay for a second, but to continue on the weekly schedule vs ending the league at the Super Bowl?

Great to hear you doing ight keep getting some rest tho happy New Years

[MaCruz]

• New Squib Kicking rule has been updated. The Onside Kicking rule has not changed. See the link for the complete League Rules https://forum.blu-ray.com/showpost.p...02&postcount=2

• The new Squib Kick rule will go in effect once we begin the Playoffs.

• Added 12/30/12 Squib Kicking: Because the A.I. of the receiving team does not react to ball appropriately during a Squib Kick due to a Gaming Glitch. Squib Kicking will be limited to where the Kicking Team will only be allowed to kick the ball short & straight ahead. The Kicking Team is NOT allowed to recover the kick. If this happens, the Kicking Team must punt the ball back to the receiving team on the very next play. No Exceptions! For Onside Kicking Rules, see below.

[Dizz05]

Thanks. Who's my next opponent anyway?

So glad to hear. Pneumonia still kills people and is nothing to take lightly.


Can we get an idea who, if anyone, is going to continue with the league into the next season? I'd like to continue, do the draft, etc.. I haven't done a draft yet, but read its really cool with ongoing commentary about some of the college player's life and career. Also your target may have a devastating injury right before the draft or decide to go into another sport!
