IMO, that would generate quite a bit on interest... Best of the Best

[/QUOTE]I'm all for it, but I'm not too sure Lenny and Emil would want to give us any publicity from it. We'll be the AFC of Super Bowl III and my guys will be the boisterous Joe Namath!

Go ahead, Perry, intercede and make it happen!

7-on-7 battle royal, team and individual event, just like the NY/CHI Grudge Match, Greg. You and Tom pick our 7, Lenny and Emil pick their 7. Match made in fantasy heaven.

You would have to do one 12 team league and another 14 team league. This way both formats would be In-Play. You take the scores from the 13 WCOFF and 13 NFFC owners and see which group outscored the other in a total points, 17 week season. You could likely make this happen in Vegas on that Tuesday or Wednesday after the NFFC draft. Most of the folks come early or leave late anyway. In one league the WCOFF folks get the "odd" picks and in the other the "even" draft slots. Both leagues would each draft from the frist position.

Excellent, TCH. Then the two sides would only have to agree on any mutually chosen players who play in both events.

Anyone want to try two satellite leagues this year with that format, drafting in August online?? I think I know of at least 13 die-hard NFFC members who I'd put up in this competition. Ted, Perry, et al in the WCOFF, do you want to see if 13 members of that Hall of Fame want to do it? I think it would be great for both contests. Let's get it on and at the very least do it for bragging rights.

Who's ready to start the NFFC vs. WCOFF Grudge Match thread? We'll host the 14-team online league draft and WCOFF can host the 12-team online league draft. We'll total up the points and it's winner-take-all format from 13 owners on each side. If the owners want to put up some money to participate in this, I'll agree to pay back 100 percent in prizes. This would be worth the price of admission for me.

For those owners who do both and are successful in both, no problem if you wear the other uniform. It would be great fun and nothing but good for both contests. I'm in if everyone agrees to it.

By the way, nice format Rob. Never thought of doing two different leagues and adding up total points. Double the fun.

Work up price and specs, Greg, as I've got one league left to get in.
