We can also imagine Tweak or MFCA.org special articles on MFCA teams, with pics, interviews, vids, etc...

I don't know if it can be successfull concerning marketing (I'm not a business man at all ), but it will be fun for sure.

Default I BELIEVE BOTH SHOULD BE DONE.

COACHES,

1) MFCA STANDARD TEAM 1-16

2)MFCA PERSONALLY ENDORSED TEAM.


There may bee coaches who would just like to use a standard team. Meaning, there could be 5 to 10 coaches with the same team. Example,

mfca red dragons

used by coaches throughout the country. Any newcomer can make a team of red dragons also since it is a mica standard team

But coaches like myself want there own oersonal team that is there creation. Said teams will mix in with the standard teams so you have the best of both worlds.
IN ANY EVENT, THIS GETS US AWAY FROM THE NFL AND NCAA ALTOGETHER. What if something happened and the NFL said i don't like what your doing regarding pictures or whatever with their brand. WE WIL HAVE OUR OWN BRAND TO CONTINUE ON WITHOUT MISSING A BEAT.

1)16 STANDARD TEAMS VOTED ON BY MEMBERS

2)UNLIMITED PERSONAL TEAMS GRANTED UPON A COACHES CREATION.

WE MUST GET AWAY. FROM RELYING 100% ON SOMEONE ELSES BRAND WHEN WE CAN THINK FOR OURSELVES

***We create our own brand then we can freely advertise and promote at will. we will always have the nfl looking over our shoulders as long as we continue to use there product publicly.

Here, we give coaches the option to use a standard team where the work has been done for them. Or create a team entirely in there own vision.

***The way many coaches like the cowboys, steelers, redskins, etc etc.
Im sure many will like the name and design of a standard mfca team and adopt that team. Paint and decal them like any other NFL OR COLLEGE TEAM.
That is their option.

Default this sounds good....

I have been working on a team of my own and this would be a gr8 way to get to use them.
If i can i would like to stake a claim to a team for the league.
I have a uniform design, team colors and logo and everything.

Hmmmm...., making up our own teams, I don't know if I could do that. It'll be tough, but I suppose I could try.

Perhaps the the uniforms themselves are not as important and the names and primary colors, so that the public may be come familiar the the teams and the MFCA. Let's go with 16 standard teams

Andre's Red Dragons for example, Primary colors could be Red, yellow and black; coaches could come up with their own design....
I already have an idea for a sweet "Red Dragon" jersey. Its a cool name.....

We need more than a handful of coaches to get involved with this if its gonna work over the long run.

Teams and colors I was thinking of:

MFCA Neutron Stars- silver and blue

MFCA Incas- yellow-green- gold- red

MFCA Green Wings- green- white- silver

MFCA Wolves (Weird Wolves?)- red yellow and white

MFCA Great Lakers- blue - green and white

MFCA Dark Energy- purple and black

MFCA Miners- red and gold

MFCA Clowns- (Al's famous team)- red- blue-white

MFCA Dixie- red and grey

MFCA Empire State- red and blue

Default THE SET

COACHES,

I have some names i will unleash shortly. But here is a possible set up that is simple.

I WILL USE "RED DRAGONS " AS AN EXAMPLE HERE TO EXPLAIN THE LAYOUT.

JERSEYS

1)ON THE FRONT OF THE JERSEY HAVE " MFCA " RIGHT ABOVE THE NUMBERS.

2)ON THE BACK OF THE JERSEYS HAVE " RED DRAGONS " RIGHT ABOVE THE NUMBERS. Red dragons will replace individual players names. The team will be recognized just as 1. YOU PLAY WITH THE RED DRAGONS.

3)MFCA SHIELD TO BE PLACED ON BOTH SLEEVES.

JERSEY COLORS

We can do 2 things.Develop a standard overall team color for the RED DRAGON for any coach to use.

Have alternate team colors for the red dragons.

FOR EXAMPLE

Just so coaches maintain some sort of connection with their favorite teams. THEY CAN PAINT THE RED DRAGONS IN THAT TEAMS COLORS. I don't recommend using the stripes, just the team color.

1) national loves the 49er's (PAINT THEM RED AND GOLD)

2) MANY LOVE THE COWBOYS ( PAINT THEM SILVER BLUE AND WHITE)

3)MANY LOVE THE STEELERS ( PAINT THEM BLACK AND GOLD)

4)TREKS LOVES MICHIGAN STATE (PAINT THEM GREEN AND WHITE)

5)KEN ALLEN AND MOZEEK LOVE THE GIANTS (PAINT THEM RED GREY AND BLUE)

6)ARTLAX LIKES THE PACKERS (PAINT THEM GREEN AND YELLOW GOLD)

7)KARIM LIKES THE OLD SCHOOL BUCS (PAINT THEM CREAMSICKLE)

8)MEGAWATZ AND WOLF LOVE THE CHIEFS (PAINT THEM RED AND WHITE)

*** THESE ALL ARE THE " RED DRAGONS " THIS SCENARIO WILL BE IN PLACE FOR ALL THE MFCA TEAMS.

WE WILL TALK LOGOS LATER

I can speak about decals freely in public because these will be ours. Once the team names are decided upon, we can create just a helmet decal based on the team name. we can shoot some ideas to wolf.

BEENUT

One thing about beenut, if i need a decal in different sizes and in any color he has no problem doing them. He can create on the computer. So yes, WE CAN CONTACT BEENUT FOR MFCA DECALS FOR THESE TEAMS

What ever color you paint the jersey, ofcourse he can provide you with any two tone numbers. Also the MFCA for the front of the jersey and RED DRAGONS (EXAMPLE) FOR THE BACK OF THE JERSEYS.

AND THERE YOU HAVE YOUR MFCA TEAM !


*** THOSE CREATING THERE OWN PERSONAL TEAM. Beenutt can create any number scheme you'd like. It all can be done rather easy if we just sat down and did it !

Default PIRATE RICK

Rick,

yes you can stake a claim. HOLD ON TO IT FOR THE

MOMENT. DONT LET THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG. Once a coach states he is creating a personal team AND NO ONE ANYWHERE HAS USED IT BEFORE. That claim will be yours solely. WHY, THAT IS YOUR PERSONAL TEAM. The standard MFCA teams can be shared but not the personal teams.

1) don't mind working- create a personal team

2)don't have time to work- pick a mfca standard


YOU DO HAVE THE OPTION.

the day we'll make mfca teams, it should be a good idea to put some stuff (logos, etc...) for free download (pdf) too for people making their own decals

Default ATT TREKS

Treks,

Do you have the power being part of the MFCA governing body to green light this project. I don't see responses from any others so maybe they are not interested . It can happen if we push forward.

I believe what we should do, is creating some sample teams. "If we build it, they will come"
