Hey, guys, I just wanted to share with you all an idea..

I stumbled upon a program called "Pro Football Simulator", in which you can create your own football (American-style) leagues, teams, and let them duke it out for bragging rights and World Championships. I figured, hey, what the hell, some people here might be interested so... yeah...

I don't know much about any sports really, but for the sake of promoting RP and such I will participate. I think though a new name for the sport should be devised and some minor cosmetic things should be changed, to in sure differentiation from the Footbal league that already exists.

I generally use these distinctions: Association Football for the footy-net game and Football for the pigskin-touchdown game. Other distinctions I use for the pigskin-touchdown game is "gridiron football" or "arena football". Those are some ideas. In Florinthus I have the FFA (Florinthian Football Association) for Association Football, and the FFL (Florinthian Football League) for Gridiron football.

I know Ikar called the international association football organization the OFF (Oracian Football Federation), so maybe we could ask him to change it to OFAF (Oracian Federation of Association Football) or OFFA (Oracian Federation of Football Asociations), or even FOFA (Federation of Oracian Football Associations). This is strictly to distinguish the touchdown football from the goal football. I know some people really flip out about calling it football or soccer or football or handegg or whatever, but really this Association-gridiron distinction makes it really simple and easy and we don't have to use the term "American" since that would be odd...

As far as naming, I'll change it to "Oracian Gridiron League", just for the sake of Ikar not having to change anything about his league, since he started his first. Purely respect, of course.

So... we have 3 members so far (Me, Mestra, Lomarre)
