Beginning in 1971 I played in a solitare league. It was the NFL but I realigned the divisions to reflect the 60's AFL/NFL. Since 1981, I have played Tudor NFL Strategy as a solitare league. Mantaraydre talked about going against real life coaches in a simulation mode. I do this now with my Strategy league. As I watch NFL games I now chart the plays that are called. I accumulate the data and make a game plan for my opponets out of it. Then I try to create a game plan to beat the other team. In the spring I will try to make a Miniature Football league out of the old BIG - 8. In my planning for this I looked at my old rules, and with MPFL stops I hope to make a good league for myself. I do not have a car so I cannot drive to any tournaments. In the one tourney I have played in, I realized that I will never be a winning coach. But as Paul Brown said once " losing is S#!$$&, but it is better than no football at all."
