Virtual TMD is my backup RB, and he's looking to start next year. The names of my guys were randomly assigned to the Auburn roster. I then included all the guys from St. Albans (where I grew up) that were in my fraternity at in the positions they played in high school (or where they would have played if playing football). The name Raiders is a nickname of my fraternity. Seems silly, but it's all I could think of for a created dynasty. It makes it fun though. I find myself getting mad at the virtual person as if they were actually the guy there were created to represent...same thing for the kudos. It's geeky, but fun.

I went with the College I graduated from as my team. Alot of my skill position players are named after people from my flag football days in school. I also get pissed at some of my boys when they suck.

It's funny when you catch yourself doing it.

Right in there with ya'll. Albeit I didn't go to my fictional school (Keebler State), but a lot of the guys on my team are from my flag football days.

The best is the fact the ones that get hurt the most in the game generally were the ones hurt in real life lol

Advanced...we are now in week 13. I'm going to wait until Saturday to advance due to the holiday. I will advance first thing when I get up on Saturday.

Well my game was interesting, evidently my defense stay home and rested but not before they covered my WR gloves with butter. Some how we still scored a ton of points and if not for one last pick, that bounced off a WR hands and to a waiting LB for a late touchdown I might have even against all odds won. The games score speaks for itself.

I feel your pain. My defense sorely lacks a solid 2nd and 3rd corner, and my linebackers are sub par. I'm really depending on recruiting for a big bounce back next season.

Yea, and I am probably set back at least another season on that with losing to Valdosta again as he came away with the top WR and CB on my list this week.

I like being in the same conference with other people. It makes these games so much more important. My games with Kenessaw State and sometimes South Panola are some of my favorite times playing this grand ole game.

Advanced...we are now in week 14.

When can you play our game dude?

Owls salvage the end of there season with a hard fought win over TerpsMD's squad. Games gos to OT and a fumble inside the 5 by SaintA all but ends it as the Owls come out and kick the winning FG.

Dang fumble...great game though. It was fun Pengy.

I will be advancing when I get home from work today.

Advanced...we are now in week 15. There are two games this week, both with inactive owners. Get your recruiting done and we will advance on Friday.

Maybe a dumb question, but why in the world do we have inactive owners? If they are inactive, lets just get them out of the league and 1. Open it up to new members or 2. Go on about this dynasty with the ones who enjoy it?

Agreed.

+1

I'm thinking the same thing. I was going to send a pm to everyone to confirm they are in for next season. I'll do that when I get home. I think a few more would want to join, and I'm fine with not having it full...it's still fun.

I sent a PM to everyone to confirm whether they are still in. This is my observation of active players:

Active
-TerpsMustDie
-fsupenguin
-texasfan4444
-cnotes008
-vtrunngun
-runthepound

Inactive
-6ftdeep
-talented
-steamrollr22
-mtwasik
-ank
-lytzeout

So it's a 50/50 split there. Basically, I want to weed out whoever doesn't want to participate, invite new active members, see who has interest, and go from there. I'm fine with running a 6 team dynasty as well. I just want it to be active.
