GWJ Summer Football League started

Pages

Yep. Forgot the FL in the league name.

Anywhoo, the league is up, "GWJ Summer" P/W "stan".

You know your teams, you know the settings. Let's giterdone and I'll gen the schedule.

Spy...spyspyspyspyspy. For TG I don't take no steenking backups. I want top notch defenders. Let me rape you like I raped Neo. Look what it did for him!

Someone refresh my memory, if I search for leagues with GWJ in the title on Live, it should bring the summer league up and let me join right?

Rather oddly, in my mind, I actually had to go to what is now www.2ksports.com and join our old league from their online league section. Weird, but I couldn't get it to work through the XBox...

Yep. Press the Black button to bring up the search when browsing the Leagues.

I've joined.

I'm all joined up too.

I'm in as well.

The Vikings are in and ready to... trade

Just curious but what roster are we using for the league? I was a bit surprised when I signed up as the Panthers and my Offense score was in the low 60s. Normally its in the low 90s so I'm guessing I have a few players injured or traded away.

LockAndLoad: Hit the depth chart and promote a bunch of your injured-in-real-life stars back into the starting lineup. Once you get Stephen Davis, Steve Smith, etc. back into the lineup, your offensive rating will jump.

They didn't delete injured players from teams, but they demoted them on the depth chart instead, which affects the displayed rating. But there's nothing stopping you from putting them back to the top of the depth chart.

The latest roster update was before the real NFL playoffs I think, I'm pretty sure the overall scores are based on the current, default line-up. For the Panthers you'll be able to swap Steven Davis into the RB position for example, despite his real-life injury at the time. The only real change to your team would be if someone was traded away.

Of course you should leave Goings as starter, he's awesome

Spy, I could use a serious hand optimizing philly, if there's any to be done. I don't even know where to start.

Uh, I didn't check the roster thing. I assumed a new league would be automatically based upon the latest roster update. I think that was how it was the first league I ran.

Correct.

9 owners need to sign up

Thin - move TO to starting left or right WR - move Pinkston to the opposite starting side. Also move your starting TE - Lewis back in as the #1. You may need to make a few tweaks on Defense - switch Trotter back in for Simoneau. You can use the WR Lewis in place of Freddie Mitchell - he is fast but has hands of stone so only good if WIDE OPEN, but darn he is fast. Bring Fredex in as your 3rd wideout so that your WIDE receivers read on the screen LWR: TO, Pinkston, Mitchell, Lewis and RWR reads Pinkston, TO, Mitchell, Lewis.... Oh and bring your highest rated FB up I think it is Josh Parry if I remember this right - he is a beast up the gut. I am at work so I am doing this by memory.... Catch me online if you want to play a few practice games... to tweak your personnel configuration.

Won't be able to sign Logan up until the weekend, when he brings me the memory card with his Live profile. I'll sign myself up at the same time.

I won't be able to sign up until tomorrow.

ESPN leagues was down most of the day - I tried to sign up but couldnt before I had to leave for the place of employment.

Well take a look at the roster Swampy and tell me what you'd like in return for TG... Tuman is decent but isnt Tony... Makes me an offer

Logan and I are signed up.

I signed up this afternoon.

PMs sent to our prodigal sons.

Man, this commishin' is hard work!

Geez, I told you impatient people that I would not be able to sign up until Sunday. So update your list Swampy cause I am signed up.

Ok, I'm in. Sorry, sorry. I never remember unless it's early morning, and half the time I think "gah... I'd have to unplug my ethernet cable, plug it into the xBox, take out MLB and put in... I'm just gonna get some extra sleep."

But, I'm good to go now.

We're impatient AND forgetful, buddy!

No offense intended!

Yikes.

Okay, I'd really love to participate. However, I can't do so until Wednesday, when our internet connection is finally installed in our new house. I will understand if you have to cut down to 12, but I can be a pretty consistent player of games (not consistent player on the field) once we get service installed.

I'm sorry for this delay. I thought they'd be able to get us set up earlier.
