Season 7.0 info


Theme League ( NFL28761 ) : 50 Mil NFL Challenge 7.0


This is the Lowest Budget that you can build a team from 50 mil. A brand of Football like no other WIS NFL league.

Season 6, We are in Week 1 today Nov.19

Join us for Season 7

Q & A time with the Commish :

Q- What makes being a WIS NFL League Commissioner tough or hard.
A- The hardest part is filling leagues. The tough is keeping a league going, without a huge budget or gimmicks like Unit or Player limits.

Q- With a budget of 50 million, how does this league continue on to a sixth season.
A- This league is a budget Challenge and some members find that to be fun. Then, this League History page helps to market our 50 mil brand in the forum.

Q- So, This low budget brand of football is different by being diverse regarding the team building aspect ?
A- Yes, A 50 mil League is where WIS should be starting newbies, not in that 60 mil Open League garbage dump of same players and units.

Q- Have the 60 mil style cookie cutter teams had success winning here ?
A- No, A Rod, OJ and Crazy Legs have a combined 0 Championships over our 5 season history.

Q- So, You feel your 50 mil NFL product is better than Open League NFL football ?
A- Yes, When our Coaches look at their match-ups each game. They never look at a team with all of the same players/units on Offense or Defense. That's the 50 mil Brand

Q- So, do your Top teams avg over 35 pts a game on offense ?
A- Yes, In our history in all 5 seasons a team has hit that mark.

nice homework on that post, "D-Car".
It appears I can call Tonawanda an "outlier" based on their lack of $ spent on offense.

from above
avg FG kicker 57.5
avg punter 27

Here is a small strategy item I pass along..the cost of cheap punters is
RATING $
15 . $403
14 . $381
13 . $359
12 . $337
11 . $325
10 . $325
- it costs an extra 22K for each point above 12
- but it only costs 12K to *get* to 12
SO. I always buy the minimum 12-rated punter when going cheap
