FULL SEASON: OPEN
Fellas, be sure to check your schedule's. Make sure you don't play anyone twice and that you have 12 games. I finished up the schedules late last night after an EMS run in the early morning. So like I said check your schedules. We always open the next block of games on Friday.
Also, remember you signed up to be apart of this, do your part and get your games in like you committed too. Hit the scheduling thread to set up times.
Make sure your playing the NDL way, that doesn't mean line up and run the same read option play every play. If your running the read option this year, and your using it 9 out of 10 plays, just remember that CR time. The read option is the new triple option. You may have it down to a science but remember to mix it up. And on defense, running the same formation 9 out of 10 times cause "it works" is not the NDL way.
That takes me to my next point....with the reduced teams this season, we will be watching CR's closely. If you end the year below average you could find yourself in the farm trying to work your way back into the NDL. I can't remember the last time I gave someone a 4 on a CR let a lone a 3. If your giving a 3, you need to explain why your doing so. And if your a Coach that think's all 4's is a good score to get, you really need to re-evaluate your game.
The NDL has always been about much more than just this football game. The football game is what bring's us all together, but this community has always been about much more. Keep that in mind.
Good Luck to everyone. I hope everyone has a great season.

Should we all remind you in the morning that it is your anniversary so you don't get in trouble?
