OK all 16 players are in and locked.
Full roster is as here,
I have shaded the 16 in 8 in purple and 8 in grey. These are your divisions/conferences etc.
And you can now understand why I wanted your colours.
Also, split into 2 x 8 was based on
- who I thought knew each other (so we can get some banter happening) and also
- splitting the two green jerseys, the two black jerseys,
- the two "D's" and the two "S's, and
- some of them NE Pats colours too (so predictable guys).
Hopefully the graphics load on your PC's, as I am getting a few random ones not loading up.
Also, I have created a 'DRAW' tab at the top that has the fixtures. Currently playing 14 of the 17 regular NFL season games as regular FMINFL games.
Week 15 of the NFL season is the FMINFL Bowl game. Weeks 16 and 17 in the NFL are scheduled for Christmas Eve and NY Eve, so I'm going to let you all enjoy that holiday season without tipping.
Or maybe introduce a bit more finals action.
To be confirmed, and feedback also welcome - let me know on the twitter.
Also there is a tab up there called '1'. This will be the dashboard for all things Week 1.
- Games to tip, and eventual results.
- Your match-ups and results.
- All the league tables.
Its a work-in-progress now, with faux scores etc while I test it all out. Eventually each week will have one page to itself as well.
Also, I have a 17th player who wants in. If I can scrounge another 7, then a third Div will come in, with a finals system of sorts.
I will reserve the right to edit the divisions above as well if a third comes in.

Will update more as it gets completed.

OK players.Here is the first post on this new and currently evolving game.
As before the rules are reasonably basic. Tip NFL winners and margins of the win.
Your tips go had to head against an opponent and nearest the pin (if correct) gets the point.
Bonus points for accuracy.
Defeat you opponent and get a win. Just like a League.
IMPORTANT to note, I will follow the NFL protocol of
Visiting Team AT Home Team
in the selection listing, and in the tips entry form.
So you need to remember that now a HOME team tip is a NEGATIVE number.
STRUCTURE
Currently there are 11 players, and a 17 week regular season.
I am taking out 1 of those 17 for a final, and there are other games played over Christmas / New Year, so the actual play could wind up being only 14 weeks (plus final).
14 weeks = 8 player groups (7 games per player x 2),
SO ideally I need 16 players, which is 5 more than now.
Draw and other detail on tables etc to be updated on this page later.
