I thought of it with a run and a jump into the others arms type of reunion but that's close enough to what I think would happen...

Thanks for the Warm Welcome fellow franchise owners. The Utah Utes football season, making it to the Rose Bowl for the first time and an exciting Playoffs in the NFL stoked my interest in this game once again. I'm happy to be back and I hope to be able to compete with you all using the Dogs rebuilt defense and new offensive weapons. Thanks for the attention and improving moves made during my time away from here almaric.

I have been thinking about moving the team to Utah this offseason but would like my team to be in the South since i'm in the NFC South so I may not........


Not a whole lot of people are still “in division” so to speak. 3 of the AFC East teams are West of the Mississippi.

To be fair, I think my team is based on South Dakota. I've been wanting to change this. No skills at the make over though.

I dabble. I'm about to change my next season to include all my league achievements...because I'm that guy. Every time you look at my logo, you'll see all my championships and super bowl appearances.

When Tazmania is in the NFC North, London in the AFC South, South Brisbane in the AFC North, Oakland and Irvine in the NFC East, and Wilmington and Manhattan in the AFC West, I think all geographic boundaries are pretty meaningless now.

The only division with the "classic" alignment remaining is the NFC West.

Do they NEED any geographical reference or could they be Gold, Red etc.

We don't, but at the start, when I created the league, I kept the "classic" NFL conferences and team names. But I allowed people to change names/cites, with no restrictions, so this is where we ended up. It's more fun I think with people able to move/change. Especially since there is no game impact. I think a "road game" has the same impact whether in London or New York. The only difference is the weather - if someone moved to Alaska, they would play a lot of cold weather games and that affects the simulation.

Let's not forget that once upon a time the Falcons and Saints were in the NFC West and the Cardinals in the NFC East (and the Cowboys are still in the East!), so geography has never been a point of emphasis in the real NFL either. Even today there's that classic AFC South team all the way down in... Indianapolis? And of course that AFC West team way out west in... Kansas City.
