NationStates Jolt Archive

The Premiership season starts in just over a week and i thought it would be in the spirit if we had our own Fantasy Football League, so i created a Nationstates League! Just go to www.premierleague.com, scroll to the bottom left, click on Fantasy Football League, register, pick your team and then click 'leagues' on the right hand side and type in this code to enter the Nationstates League 71938-13819. I hope that wasn't too much for you to do lol, hopefully i'll see you all in there!

My team is _DC_Dynamites, all nationstates players are welcome to play!

Come on, who's the best football manager in nationstates? play to find out...

One last bump up, bring on the new season and roll on the games~!

We currently have 6 nationstates teams, the more the merrier!

For a second i thought it was American football... bummer.

Only real Football here, come and join up!

9 teams and counting, anyone from Nationstates is allowed to make a team...

American football is real football. I guess I should have guessed that it was soccer when I saw the name of the person who started the thread.

No Soccer is the original Football seeing as English football was created before american football. Thus we hold the word 'original'.

I'm in. You guys are dust. :mp5: .

No way, the _DC_Dynamites rule!

^- that's American football.

14 teams and counting...

Make a team, join the action.

The more the merrier!

So how do we play games and stuff. is about every week they do a simulated game or something.

Who caresa about the Premire ship? Go Division one (I know its the campionship but...I HATE THAT NAME CHANGE.) Anyway I support the Reds. Nottingham Forest FC. Far better than the Premership.

How can the Coca Cola Championship be better than the Premier League lol. There's a reason why the 3 best teams from the Championship go into the 'prem' and the 3 worst teams from the 'prem' go into Championship...

18 teams and just over 1 week to go, make your team!

:headbang: Realdorado's finest club Los Maleditos bought some reinforcements and decided to participate in the Nationstates League. We wanna win!

Better football. Teams may not be as good, but it's more competive and teams have to work. Every year it's a compition, not just 3 or 4 teams for the top spot, it's 10 or 11 teams for the playoffs every year.

I know, it can be very exciting, my team Crystal Palace went up through the play-offs after being in the relegation zone in december!

Aye, and heart breaking, after that loss to Sheffied United in the playoffs a year or two ago. Now that was awfull. Even worse that the SU fans started singing "Easy!" At us.

Division 1 looks like being really exciting this season. There's a lot of strong teams all thinking they've got a good chance of promotion - West Ham, Wolves, Ipswich, Sunderland, Leicester, Sheffield United and my team, Leeds (ahem).

Leeds-ROLF.

I reackon you'll be another Bradford mate. You'll middle table this season and next season have a relegation battle and the season after that you'll be down with the Direby.

There's plenty of excitement in the premier - i'm a Liverpool fan... one day beat Man U next day lose to Norwich - a rollercoaster of thrills :)

P.S. Fear the Donkey FC :D

American Football = Shit

Overruled!

American Football is great! I'd probably like Rugby...but most ignorant Americans like me have no clue how its played (just being honest).

Nobody else in the World plays American Football.

All it is is 50 people who eat 2000 eggs a day running into each other really fast. And the team with the most mass usually manages to push the other team across the line for the 'touchdown' (boring).

I totally agree with you, i decided to watch the superbowl last year to see what the fuss was about, suffice to say it didn't live up to expectations...I ended up falling asleep after about 10 minutes *yawn*

i want to join

Then join! ^__^

Despite the fact that I know nothing about Professional football, and against all common sense, I have joined.

If nobody else in the world plays American Football. How in the hell do you explain NFL Europe and Germany itself having at least two teams?

To answer your question; Just because there is a minority of useless american wannabes making teams doesn't mean anyone takes any notice of there games, just look at their attendances and lack of any media coverage lol.

Anyway on to the more important issue of me whipping everyones arse in the Nationstates Fantasy Football League, watch out everyone, its going to be a public slaughter! haha

Just out of interest, and it should create some "friendly banter :)" what teams does everyone support? And who do you think is going to win/do well/get no points at all etc. ?

I know nothing about football (soccer). So how does this thing work?

....I swear to god I never knew that. Just goes to show, everyone apart from Americans hates the bastardization of Rugby (American Football), and don't even TRY to claim American Football is more popular.

HAHA! very funny, but seriously though the jokes on you and your american football loving mates. Why do you think real Football is the most popular sport in nearly every country in the world, its no coincidence.

Im in and ready to kick some ass!

Seriously though American Football is just a crap conversian of Rugby., just like Baseball of Rounders ect.

Gaelic Football! yeah! *looks around at puzzled faces*

Theres just one bad thing about them that stops them from being popular around the world. The players dont get payed :( .
