    Take a look at the Season 3 standings. There are way too many unplayed games there. That WILL be taken a look at when it comes time to hand out teams for Madden.

    Anyway, your response is why we won't be doing polls, signups, headcounts, etc until more people have had a chance to experience both games. No sense in doing that now when some of the Season 3 members haven't played both games yet, and then a week or two from now they decide they like Madden better after finally playing it (but would have voted ESPN right now due to only playing it).

    Like I said, maybe do some informal polls in the NFL players forums (before we start doing public polls) for Season 3 members just to get a feel for who really wants ESPN no matter what (not, who really wants Madden but will play ESPN if they can't get in the Madden league... which would turn into a MLB/AAA situation and Tris10 isn't going to build a 2nd scoreboard for a league that's not going to even complete it's regular season again)

    I definately agree about the missed games issue with season 3. There will be plenty of teams available

    It's Madden or bust for me....If it's an ESPN league then I will bow out and gear up for hockey season...That is if I can get a team :wink:

    We'll have an official voting poll to decide on one or two leagues and if one league which one, but not until probably sometime this weekend.

    Since my flight is in a couple hours, can I vote early since i won't have internet access?

    My vote is for a singular Madden league.

    If not, I will put my vote in once I get back.

    No, you can't vote now (you don't know the options for voting either), you can vote when you get back.

    I do understand that some like me didnt really want to buy both games but Im glad i could THIS time... ESPN is/was collecting alot of dust... i just didnt want to play it.. (and this is no slap in the face to espns group.. They made a great game.)
