I'll take the San Diego Superchargers not sure what sort of team yet leaning towards Norse or Dark Elves.
Thinking about a Chaos, Orc or Nurgle team in the NFC but not sure which team to pick. Almost any of them will do. I'll get back to you on that.
EDIT: Decided on Norse... team name... Scandinavo Frenzy Chargers.
With STAR RB "L'Dane" Ian Tomlinson. |

Welcome Catalyst, who brings in San Diego. (Scandinavo). 18 teams down (9 gone from each conference). Start getting your builder games in! The quicker you get them in, the quicker we can begin the fun of the regular season!
I wish all of you the best of luck for the upcoming season. It's going to be a rough ride!
I'm excited!

If you folks haven't stopped into #NBFL as of yet, the topic is now set to show that the deadline for team building is THIS SUNDAY. Eisen is hoping to open the season on Monday, so your teams should be 125 TR by then, to avoid large disadvantages in games. Just wanted to make sure you all saw that.
Possibility exists of two divisions in each conference! Now THAT'S exciting.

Greetings all. I’m happy to announce that the first season of the NBFL will kick off Monday 4/23! Get those jockstraps out of the wash because hard hitting gridiron action is just around the corner! There are still a lot of great teams available for those new coaches who wish to get into an awesome league right at the start. Just check over the rules page and submit a team.
There are a few existing coaches who have yet to play any preseason matches. It is HIGHLY encouraged that you get a couple games in before the start of the season. This will let me know who’s active and who’s not. Rember this league will have a very low tolerance for slackers, and I won’t hesitate to boot people and free up their team for a more active coach. Preseason games can be played with Elite Challenge rules. So if your running short on time (and both players agree) try out a 5v5 (or any other option) to speed things up. You can play games with any L team up to 125TR. It's really easy to find games as our new IRC room is up. Just join #NBFL and let the madness begin!
Game on!

I made him a thrall...I am not sold on him doing well with the cheifs...still not going to break 8-8 and considering how terrible there division is...I mean seriously - what was the record of the AFC West last year against teams outside of their own division? You are not sure...I can help you out!
8-8, 8-8, 5-11, 2-14 is a collective: 23-41 but 12-12 is the in division record. So the out of division record is a just plain terrible 11-29. The chiefs managed to go 2-4 against their division mates (their only 2 wins) - but even removing their 10 losses. It is just plain sad...so Matt Cassel doing well? I think not!! |

Yes the division was well crap! I'm a Broncos fan and with whats going on at the Mile High I can't see them doing better than 8-8. I mean came on why would you come in as a rookie head coach and mess around with the number 2 Offence? |

Howdy folks! We're well on our way to Opening Day!
We've got 10 teams in the AFC, and 9 for the NFC so far. Glancing quickly, geographically speaking, this is what the AFC Division would look like:
AFC EAST
-------------------
Baltimore Necros
New Scotland Patriots
Buffalo Billy Goats Gruff
Khemsonville Jaguars
Pittsburgh Pirates
AFC WEST
----------------------
Scandinavo Frenzy Chargers
Denvers Broncos
Oaklady Raiders
Kansas City Vampire Lords
Cinderfall Bengals
The NFC divisional breakdown is a bit hazy to stare at from a distance, with so many Central teams being involved.
NFC EAST
--------------------
Philadelphia Chaotic Eagles
NFC WEST
----------------------
Arizona Cardinalz
San Francisco 69'ers
Those are the only true easy placements so far, based on geography and the way they normally would sit in the NFL. (Yes, I know Dallas is normally an NFC East team, but in terms of the geography, it doesn't make much sense...)
The remaining teams to place would be:
-------------------------------------
Skar Bay Bucs
New Lean Saints
DeTroit Lionz
Chicago Bares
Minnesnowta ViQueens
Dallas Cow Boys
I guess we can debate where we feel these teams should land. If I were deciding, I think I would almost do something silly like this:
NFC CENTRAL
--------------------
Skar Bay Buccaneers
Philadelphia Chaotic Eagles
New Lean Saints
DeTroit Lionz
Chicago Bares
NFC WEST
------------------
Arizona Cardinalz
San Francisco 69'ers
Minnesnowta ViQueens
Dallas Cow Boys
Just wondering what you all think, as it is REALLY slow at work today. I'm bored out of my gord, and I'm just SO EXCITED to play this league!
Discuss!

With the intended game plan for the league, how can we move forward with an uneven amount of teams? If we're going to have each team play their division opponents x2 and conference opponents x1, that is.
I'd suggest we leave 3 teams as standby teams, until we get more coaches/teams. Particularly the teams with no games yet and that are a second team by the same coach (to even out the conferences). The main problem is the two teams per coach thing, which is hard to balance, unless it was a mandatory league. Besides... what happens if the same coach wins both the AFC and NFC, do we skip the super bowl? |
