Not to step on anyone's toes ( I apologize already if anyone takes this the wrong way) but even with bank points how did some major BCS coaches get to keep their teams? Once again there are others that kept their teams that I was like HOW! But 2 popped out at me the most cause I was looking to draft either of them.

Both were top 10 teams on the game last season, and both went 7-5. I understand recaps, sportmanship, voting ect...ect.. all come into play. I dont know what either teams win goal for last season was...but it had to be way over 7.

Like I said I have nothing but respect for both coaches to even play in the SEC or Big 12, but this is just a question that has me blown away.
Once again no disrespect to either one or AJ, just wondering if I mis-read the point system.

Thanks
1st and foremost, no offense, but there is zero chance of this being discussed on the boards, or anywhere for that matter.

if you check the 40-40-20 formula, win goals are not as big a part of the equation as you think

there are no conspiracies here....the list is right...sorry if you have an issue with it

:(
If he doesnt already, he should.
To be honest, Holmey, rest of the commissioners and conference commissioners do a lot behind the scenes that some of us do not see. I am not trying to blow smoke up anyone's ass, but these guys do a lot of stuff that I can only hope to have time for. Most of the guys like me have families, full time jobs and busy lives. The others have school too. None of the guys get paid to help this league out, so what they are doing is on their free time. Instead of wondering on how people get to keep a certain team, volunteer your time to help out with something in the NDL. There is no way I could even apply to be commish or any other responsibilities in the league, due to my job and family. But if some of you would like to help out, volunteer for something. It will not secure you a team high in the draft, but giving back to something that Holmey and the rest have done for us can be overlooked many times without noticing it. On a side note, I can never get my team Clemson, but so be it.........just enjoy playing your friends in online gaming. So what Weasel said, second.

It is what it is that is why I just decide to stay at mediocre Minnesota. The weather is bad, the girls are just okay and the fan base could be better but sometimes, just sometimes, I might see Prince at a club or at least someone that looks like Prince or maybe its a woman?

And Holmey is NC State anything else would be uncivilized!

Yeah thanks, I was actually hoping to pick these guys with my pick and then I saw you kept them :( Oh well have to look for something else.

I have been close, but the past couple of versions of the game have had NC State as a down team (compared to the B+ or A- they were early in the NDL). I got them by chance when people decided to boycott drafting them one year, and they fell to me around pick 30, when they easily could of been a top 20 pick.

And I am so glad russel wilson is rated where he is, as the past 2 years of QB have been absolutely horrible

Holmey better get all his Wilson time in this game cause Wilson prob will not be back next year. He is moving to baseball.
