Dangit! I refuse to join that bandwagon. Seaside will pick up a few more wins next year and give the league some better competition.

GO 'VADERS!

Yep. A western team hasn't been seen in the Metro Bowl since season one.

I'm going to start my own bandwagon...Go River Heights!  Hardly a longer shot out there, but that's the way I like it.

A well deserved title. The best regular season team wins the champion crown. That´s not inevitable [:D].
I support the Comets, as I mostly like the underdogs.

Well, another great season is in the books. Now, taking a break for about a month and a half or more (or less) and then will return to begin season four. Meanwhile, here's what's happening...

- Currently working on an awards page and should have it uploaded soon.

- Waiting for the next MF update as has yet to touch it at all while wrapping up this season. So, will be playing around with the next update to see what it can do. However, also like to wait for jdhalfrack to release his special importer utility that will allow folks to save most of their current league stats and history and import it into the update. He's hit a glitch with it, but hoping he can work things out.

- Once patch/update is applied, will be assessing each team and updating draft profiles based on team needs. Don't know if the game spits out a draft log. If so, will try to post it. If not, will be posting a quick glimpse at the first round draft picks, as usual.

- There won't be any coaching changes this offseason. But, will be doing quite a bit of work on updating game plans and game situations as a result of new features from the MF update.

Stay tuned.

You can view the draft for each year. Dont think it prints out a hardcopy though.

Great pick up. But the Makos also lost some bigtime players to retirement...

Peppercorn RB (age 30) played 3 seasons
Kennedy QB (age 28) played 3 seasons
Clay WR (age 28) played 3 seasons
Flethcer RB (age 26) played 1 season

Is this normal (NFL wise) for players to retire in their late 20's. I'm not sure why MF is not more tollerant to keep good players around well into their 30's. But, from what I've heard retirement is random.

Career lengths in the NFL are usually determined by the teams rather than the player.  Most players who "retire" that early retire uncerimoniously after being cut in camp, which really skews the "4 year career" average the NFL always talks about.  Players 48-53 on the roster are usually "interchangable parts"; a 5th receiver, 4th TB, or a 3rd string LB who plays special teams, someone which can be replaced by someone cheaper and of equal ability next year by a street FA.
 
In general starters retire due to age (Farve), a serious injury (David Pollack), or a series of nagging injuries; most other people are forced out of the league because they can't find a team willing to take them.
