As long as we recognize what is important in SF/NYC. :thumbsup:

Who is Phoenix? :unsure:

Doesn't Berk have a bit of an AZ-fetish, sportswise? :unsure:

I think I may replace Jakarta with the New York Stonewalls.

Might I humbly suggest the Toronto Ceramic Elephants? :)

And New York Log Cabins might work better.

And if you need additional teams...

Preston (England) Layabouts
Montreal Tribals
Georgia Grognards

BTW, if I ever get a team I've copyrighted the "Trondheim Oilers" name.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

I'm still struggling with learning the game. It has no playcalling, but you can setup play strategies for your team for the in-game situations. Most of the game has the charm of playing an Excel sheet right now (even more so than, say, Front Office Football). It's obviously trying hard to become The Next Big Thing, but it'll have to come some way in terms of user friendliness and presentation. I like what I see in general, though, and it's a solid effort for a newcomer. It even offers an interface for Grey Dog Software's Bowl Bound College Football (so you can import draft classes). I find the customization options for leagues lacking. It has some standard formats, but you can't free format it. And to change team names you have to edit them either after league creation or in an XML file.

It's possible that this'll shape up to be Football's Out of the Park, but it has a long way to go till then. I can only imagine that this is what some of the first OOTPs have felt like.
