    Hi all,

    That time is upon us again.

    As we want to start season 3 on Monday May 6th, and needing to facilitate four days for the four pre season weeks, I've the option of Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday of the previous week.

    I know, but by the time the Superbowl is played we are looking at next Monday/Tuesday. Then we need two days for resignings and then the different FA stages. Pre Season will be available by Thursday the 2nd? :pac:

    I'm dying for the Free Agency and Draft, the most fun part of an online franchise imo.

    Yeah i love the FA part, no real interest in the draft this season as i gave my 1st 2 picks away, i still have a 3rd and 4th pick i think, but i would'nt be a fan of the draft anyway, just prefer using the real players.

    I'm going to abstain from voting as my roster varies each week and is all night time. as long as I get two weeks notice I can make sure to have the night off.

    No, before then, The championship games will be played over the weekend, depends when the superbowl gets played, maybe Monday or Tuesday. Re-signinings should open after the week is advanced post superbowl.

    Tuesday is winning at the moment, although can we do the draft with out the commish? As Ben's availability is questionable that night.

    Transfer commishness to someone else, same as what happens when he is away for the summer.

    The question is... who is going to be the commish and will he be allowed to ban a bitter divisional rival that he's yet to beat in 4 attempts :cool:

    On a side note, does anyone know can you do resignings and free agency thru the Madden Career website, and if so is it any good/reliable?

    We would be safe for 10pm on those nights though.

    Also, could provide a brilliant distraction when other people are taking FOREVER with their picks.

    Tuesday is currently winning, however, I do hope the Superbowl will be played by Tuesday so we have enough time for everything. If the Superbowl isn't played by Tuesday, we may have to have it on the Wednesday.
