Default IT'S A GOOD IDEA

COACHES,

It's a good idea to break off into sectors and start small and let this build into one somewhere down the line. 6 to 10 players would be fine. The key is to have fun doing this. " SOLITAIRE ON THE ROAD MINIATURE FOOTBALL LEAGUE " . Each league should have a starting point coach like wolf (commish). Let him determine who he thinks would be a good fit for his league. These leagues can start in small groups across america. A good fit

A PERSONS (NOT COACH AT THIS POINT) CHARACTER, WILL BE FRONT A CENTER IN THIS TYPE OF OPERATION.

This is like a group of buddies starting a madden league to play online . Who all live in different parts of the country.

***level Shelton told me this in the lobby of the embassy suites at the miggle in baltimore. " Character is what a person does when NO ONE ELSE IS LOOKING "

**Probably better to start with a few friends then build from references/recommendations into your league.
1) Do you know the coach personally ?
2)Do you trust the person to play a fair game.
3)Do you trust each league member to take care of your team and bases while it is on the road.
4)Do you trust the person while report truthful and accurate stats when they are not in his favor.

***All in All, if a person has a shady record in other areas of their life, chance are the sun is not going shine here either.

I was thinking, say a league started playing the shootout series rule set. The league agrees to play only with stock figures. FF.NET STOCK FIGURES ONLY WITH NO CUSTOMS. Each person in the league votes on exactly which figures and where they should be placed on the field. For example.

1) Speed demon wr to play on the right side of the field

2)sprinter wr to play on the left side.

***reason being, all coaches can tweak and develop those players for that side of the field.

**** all home teams are required to have a set of white stock figures that were agreed upon as the continous travel team. THIS WAY, ALL THE ROAD TEAM HAS TO DO IS SEND HIS BASES TO PUT ON THAT STOCK FIGURE.
mark the base, #85 or whatever #, sprinter left side. The home team will know to put that base on the sprinter who will go on the left side of the field.
So basically, we all will be housing the same visiting team just awaiting their bases and schemes to run. The million dollar question is, HOW DO WE KNOW WHEN TO RUN THEIR SCHEMES AT CERTAIN POINTS DURING THE GAME. For example, what if its

1) 3rd and goal

2)2nd and 14

3) 2nd and 2

How do we figure out if they want to pass or run ? do we use dice to figure that out ?

HOW WOULD ALL THE PLAY CALLING WORK ??????????


This idea will open up a new world for many folks to test thier skills against others bases and play calling. RIGHT IN THE COMFORT OF THIR OWN HOME.

That's a true home team with the visiting team coming in.

Also, we may have to consider a postal budget

1)insurance

2)delivery receipts

***In case the mailman leave a package at the wrong address

I like 2 day priority but it's more money. Maybe $2 and change for just bases or so. Depending on how many games (mailings) a $15 to $20 postal budget should be ok for the coaches in a league

You will be like an owner who's team REALLY went on th road without him.

thanx
