INJURY SETTING: RENEGOTIATION RULES: (Some leagues have gone to last-year-of-contract only for renegotiations. Note any reneg rules here.)

It really doesn't matter, though. I'd say that the main reason for putting dates is so that people can know whether the league was converted, or is FOF2K7-only. |
Dola:
I'm going to list CFL, FOFL, IHOF, and USFL with start dates of "FOF2K4 release," since it's pretty clear that all four came together in some form or fashion before the game was released. Similarly, I'll mark the leagues that started Nov. 2006-Jan. 2007 as "FOF2K7 release." |

Wow. I posted on behalf of a multiplayer league to provide information specifically requested by SkyDog for a project he's doing to benefit FOF players. Never expected to get a petty insult in response. Rather than clutter up this thread, if you have anything to say to me, feel free to send me a PM. Thanks. |
