    Once the league is formed, the ESPN League Website can be found at

    http://leagues.espnvideogames.com/index.php

    In order to view the league stats, post to the message board, and access league info outside of Xbox Live you must have a Microsoft Passport and that Passport must be linked to your Gamertag.

    To get a Passport go to:

    http://www.msn.com/

    While you are at it, I would reccomend downloading MSN Messenger. Once you link your Passport to your Gamertag you will be able to see you Xbox live friend's list and receive Xbox live alerts via Messenger. Additionally, you'll be able to communicate immediately with other members of the league.

    For information on how to link your Passport to your Gamertag go to:

    http://www.xbox.com/en-US/default.htm

    If any of you have any questions regarding how to do any of this feel free to post them here.

    Does anyone use MSN Messenger on a Mac? I'm wondering if it's going to take over as it does a PC. I don't think it can, but I wouldn't put anything past Micro$oft.

    I'm one of those artsy folks...I started on a MAC, but after shelling out 5 grr for a PowerMac I decided PC would be the way to go.

    I sure would love to get a G5 though...

    Oh dear God people I was asking a question, not starting a PC/Mac debate! :D

    I'll throw messenger on tonight when I get home.

    Personally, I think messenger is awesome. Especially the way it integrates with Live.

    PS: Messenger works fine, and it comes up as an external drive.

    Oh and for you Mac users out there that want a program like Trillian on the PC, http://www.adiumx.com/ , it works like a charm, and that way you can avoid downloading MSN to your Mac.

    AdiumX crashes every time I bring it up for the first time, if that makes sense. Power on - open Adium - crash - open Adium - good to go.


    I switched to fire.
