| 258 | 106435 |
Hey everyone! It's that time of year again. It's time for superbobdabest's 3rd annual football competition. For all of you who have not played in this competition I'd like to first inform you that this is first American football and it is the NFL not college. Second if you would like to join you must first watch or know enough about the teams to say which are good and which are not and you must be decently active. If so then if you would like to just ask to sign up. All of the rules, scores, news and other updates will be posted here. Please check this as often as possible. We have 10 total spots, 9 remaining.
Scoring Points:
For those of you who have been in this before there have been some changes. The way it goes is: We will do a draft. Everyone will get 3 teams (not counting further trades). Every time that team wins, you get 3 points. In the result of a tie both teams will earn 1 point. There is also Playoff Points (see below).
Draft
The way the draft works is I will write the names of the people who have signed up down on a paper. I will one at a time pull the names out of a hat. The first person I pull out of the hat will draft last during the first round. The next name I pull out will draft second to last and so on. After we pull out the order we will double up, meaning the last person of the first round will go first in the second round, and the second to last will go second and so on. For the third and final round we will repeat the first round.
Trades
You and any other player(s) are allowed to make trades at anytime. You can trade teams, points, and draft picks. Draft picks will not be allowed to be involved in a trade until the draft order is posted. Both players must post that they are okay with the trade before I make it official.
Playoff Points
Next; playoff points. Each team who makes the playoffs gets 2 points. Winning the Wild Card round or getting a bye during the Wild Card round gets you 3 points. Winning the Divisional round gets you 4 points. Winning the Conference round gets you 5 points. Winning the Superbowl gives you a whopping 6 points. If you don't like the playoff points scoring system we may take a vote about it later in the season.
Rules and Penalties
Rules are anything that will get you trouble anywhere else on AG, will get you in trouble here. If an offense is committed, depending on how ultimate the offense is you could face loss of points or even an ejection from the competition. This hasn't been a problem in the past and I don't intend it to be.
Ok I think that's it. If anyone has a question or comment just post here or on my profile. If you would like to sign up then make sure you have read the above and then just comment below. Draft order will be decided after 9 more people have signed up. Thanks everyone.

Championship Games:
NFC: Packers at Seahawks

Points: The Championship round is worth 5 points.
Scenarios for players winning the football competition:
superbobdabest wins football competition with Colts or Seahawks winning Super Bowl.
xeano321 wins football competition with Packers win in Championship AND Colts not winning the Super Bowl.
nichodemus wins football competition with Patriots win over the Seahawks in the Super Bowl.
AAARGHGHGHGH!!!!! TWO STUPID WINS AWAY FROM WINNING. Was in first place like all season....
Curse the Seahawks. They ruined like my ENTIRE life.
When you are able to get 5 turnovers and start many drives in your opponent's territory you should be able to win a game. Green Bay shot themselves by not taking advantage of touchdwn opportunities.
Aso the Colts got killed but the NFL is seeing if the footballs were under inflated. Seems they might have been. Patriots could lose draft picks. Personally I think if they were under inflated the Colts should go and the Patriots should be shunned and not get the chance.
Green Bay shot themselves by not taking advantage of touchdwn opportunities.
As a Packer fan, I have to say that was actually just good defense on the part of the Seahawks. They didn't let our offense through in the red zone and they wore us down enough that we couldn't score as much in the second half. But what really ended the game was Bostick jumping to try catching an onside kick ]here.

Super Bowl XLIX: Patriots vs. Seahawks
Scenarios for players winning the football competition:
superbobdabest wins football competition with Seahawks winning Super Bowl.
nichodemus wins football competition with Patriots win over the Seahawks in the Super Bowl.
Hmm, I totally forgot about this seeing as my chance of winning was gone early... However, good luck to you Nicho, I'm rooting for the Patriots!
Hahah, thanks dapro.
I think Seahawks will win though I'm supporting the Patriots. Not just for fantasy team reasons.
Friendly reminder that cheaters win.
In all seriousness though, WHY THE HELL DO YOU BLEEPING THROW THE BLEEPING BALL ACROSS THE BLEEPING MIDDLE OF THE FIELD??? You have one of, if not the best running back in the NFL and you throw? TERRIBLE CALL. HORRIBLE. Just run it with Lynch and you win the game. And if you are thinking about passing, which you should not, don't bloody throw across the middle. Throw a fade or something where only your guy can make a play on the ball. Horrible call, Seattle had the game and decided that they would let the Patriots win.
