    just pick whichever highschool you liked best, and if your not in HS yet, we can use the local of where you are likely to go....or, we can do it regionally by where we live now, which will assist with the live draft as well, since your more likley to draft with guys in the same timezone...

    I like the geographical alignment ideas and wouldn't mind creating a real AFC West rivalry. Today, it occured to me that maybe we shouldn't lump the top teams into one division, only to leave the rest of the league mostly mediocre (worst case scenario).

    There were 8 playoff teams last season. Why not just put each of last year's post season contenders into separate divisions and then build the divisions out from there? We can also scrap the NFL division names in favor of something more customized. Allow last season's 8 contenders to create a name for their division, something fun. blackadder, if you could come up with a name for your division, what would it be?

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (TheBeef)</div><div class='quotemain'>Pats37 got screwed!!!!!! He drew a division with 3 playoff teams from last year.....LOL!!!! I would vollunteer to get moved wherever needed to balance the divisions....I have another suggestion too....last year we used our high school names as mascots, so what about using our high school locations as geography for division alignment? to do it, we just need to post all our high school cities and states...should be simple to set up...</div>


    I'M NOT SCARED OF YOU OR ANY DWO BEEF. i DON'T WANT ANYTHING CHANGED FOR BALANCE CUS I'LL KICK ALL YOUR ASSES. I'M HARDLY A SLOUCH IN FFB. IT'S ON NOW.

    the problem with the real geography is that there are a million of east coasters or central of the USA

    I actually like it the way it is. Maybe an adjustment here, an adjustment there, but I like it the way that it is....

    lets start on the rules. My suggestion 1 Defense player on the roster and 20 yds per point instead of 25

    2 man bench, i like ROTR ideas of naming the division to, but i dont like the top 8 teams last year are in the same division, i say mix it. this game is more of luck, and o yea i should be getting the first pick because i came in last right?

    with the draft pick thing, i think it should be randomized becuase then its fair and no one rigs it

    I thought crazybacon was in last place. Besides, random draft order (then serpentine) is more fair, balanced, and unbiased in my opinion.

    The order must be serpentine or the person who picks first should kill themselves if they don't win.

    37--

    As Scott Hall (WCW) used to say, "Don't sing it! Bring it!"

    Further, you couldn't take me down in an elevator, escalator, or lead parachute.

    I was the points leader last year despite not having a decent 2nd WR or RB.

    SF--

    Should the AFC East be called the AFC South and vice versa as Miami is where it is. I am for spreading out multiple fans of one team. I think its awful interesting that you want to group the Brady Bunch (Pats fans) & Dwo together.

    There is no way a fine upstanding FFL'er that you is doing this on purpose to get us to go Civil war on each other.

    Td4td, SEB Al, ROTR, & myself are the only ones I know of west of the Rockies.

    SF--

    The above is a good idea for 1 division. If you want to email me the user names & locations, I could put together a league based solely on real Geography.

    Oh but BA you were the points leader in a league without me. The Brady bunch will kill the fiddler's since we all know Feely will only be feeling the aluminum bench. lol man I can't wait for fantasy football.
