Default Item Gallery/special issue ????

I would like to see the MFCA compile a gallery of items that are used in the game.

Sort of like a photo section of all the different types of standardized figures, then a section of those figures made into custom figures. Different types of boards. Different types of passing sticks. Different types of dice, ttqb's , footballs, sideline markers, field markers. A stadium section, not just FF.com or miggle/tudor but there are others.

It would be a pictorial archive for the ages of everything miniature has to offer. It could be a special tweak issue that has also the rules for every league and tournament that is associated with the MFCA.

I think it would be a great seller if we try to actually market our hobby/game/sport (works your back more then bowling ) and keep it alive long after we have gone. These items are in basements, storage areas, attics, and stow away closets all over the country and world.

How many would go for a pictionary history of miniature football ?

There are way too many out in the "just like a virgin" miniature football world who don't know real competition exists. They have to outnumber us thousands to one.
If excalabur sold over 40,000 games last year to JC Penny alone, there are Dad's all over the country trying to get their sons to enjoy what they had as kids.

Let's see 40,000 to MFCA members 187 is 214 to 1. How many went by the poorly marketed item and passed it by, tens of thousands. This is just J.C. Penny.

We could try to free market this book to church organizations, public service organizations like Coach Karim is involved in and maybe even the NFL, AFL, and NCAA. Remember these are only my alleged mind working after finding out it is Jimbo's birthday. Gosh, he seems like an ageless wonder when he plays. :-)

Dreaming about the game is often as much fun as playing.
