Ray... War Room Rumble sounds really good. Thanks for the suggestion.

Stoney... I agree your entire post 100%. The last couple lines spoke volumes. After reading posts, some of the new people in our hobby have come to believe that this game is being played a hundred different ways, and that rules and equipment change from person to person. When that's hardly the case. I'm going to start a new thread explaining this.

3) Rules that are put in place to maximize the strength in their game.
4) Ego's
Most of this could all be overcome if Miggle produced a detailed rule book. Which would outline the playing this great game. Unfortunately they are not capable in doing so. Which is sad to say.

p.s. Old School, I love your quote... it speaks volumes on the issues in electric football

Wally, (First let me say) Thanks for coming back to the EF scene and posting again. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts and insights. I also agree with your post, but I think that the points you make are the way things use to be in our hobby instead of how they are now. Many guys in this hobby travel to play in different tournaments and some guys travel to play in leagues outside of their backyard. As Coach Stoner alluded to... the backbone of rules are basically the same. So Wally, my question is: "If rules, comfort levels, and how we're playing isn't the problem... what's the real problem?"
Just my thoughts,
OldSchool
