I put J.Joesph on the block for two weeks, i contemplated his age and salary, and asked for a 2nd round pick. No takers
Before the Draft i said i would give him to the highest bidder and a 3rd pick was all i got. This becomes his value. I can drop him and get nothing, or take a 3rd.
Wouldn't this be a trade that would HAVE to go through?
Wasn't his value established properly?
The perfect trade would be one in that both partys win and everyone in the league sees as fair. This could be accomplished with 32 great owners looking after their squads.
Now I know two franchises are having issues with funds (Cowboys and Steelers)....but here are the reasons we do owner mode.
It allows us to find out which players are FOR REAL. If a guy takes over a struggling franchise and is dedicated to turning that bitch around......then we know we found somebody great.
I do understand we already know that Viper and Lonestare are good owners....but this is just another reason why we do it. And I do understand your frustrations right now.
*Note: you both have home games in Week 1 so you should have enough funds after that.
Our YouTube Channel will be LOADED with games and highlights. All you gotta do is share your clips to the facebook page above "MEFL Commish" and I can convert it into an HD YouTube Video within 5 minutes.

I want to make a poll on when advance days should be. Please vote on this as advance days are a very important aspect of the league. My take on it is that the long advance period should be during the week as many people are very busy during the week, especially me. However, everyone is different and some are busier on weekends. Hopefully I can get as many people to respond as possible so we can see who is available when and what would be best for the league.
New Steelers owner here and thanks for letting me in your league. I'm pretty new madden online player so I hope you don't beat me up too bad. I got lucky to get my favorite team and plan on being here for a long time. So MEFL your CHAMP is here!
Sl1cks1ilverman your contributions to the website are not going unnoticed. Thank you for posting matchup threads a day early. If chrebet was to cut off his hands in a freak cooking accident, its good to know the website could go on with guys like cabbage and slick. NICE JOB!!!
just signed sean phillips, want to move Sean Phillips from DE to OLB. Phillips played OLB during his days as a Charger. Please approve before season starts!!!!
I have resign from the league due to time constraints, I'm in 6 leagues and have decided to cut down to 3. This leagues just happens to be one of the last leagues that i joined and for that reason I'm letting this one go. I have enjoyed being apart of this well ran league. I wish nothing but the best for all that are apart of this league. Thanks for having me.
I just would like to see if anybody would be interested in doing a little MEFL online league for NBA2k14 on the ps4. It really would be just for fun (nothing overly detailed). I could make a little section on the website for the league and I was thinking we can run it for a month or two and have a kick ass playoff in the end to determine a champ. To make it fun i would say we need at least 6-8 teams, 12 would be awesome but probably unrealistic. Anyways, if you happen to have this completely sick NBA game, let me know if you would be interested in doing something like this. If we get enough...
check it out boys....top right corner of FORUM PAGE.....we now will have the last 4 Weekly Matchup Threads that have been replied to up for view. This will allow EVERYBODY to view the GAME TIMES for broadcasting easier, so you can check out a game when you'd like.
A change has come in New York as tcmagic97 takes over the reins in New York. With the team sitting at 5-8, it is time to focus on next year. It starts with cap space. When tcmagic97 took over, the Giants were in negative cap space, but after cutting many key vets, the Giants are on the positive side of the payroll, although big cap penalties are sure to come. Hopefully with solid play from Ryan Nassib and the offense, as well as the defense led by Jason Pierre Paul, the team can finish the year strong and gain momentum for next year.
just a reminder guys...as we near the end of the regular season and the playoffs approach.....ROAD TEAMS PLEASE ANNOUNCE THE GAME START TIME on the weekly matchup threads and obviously broadcast the game.
nearing the playoffs guys will have more interest in watching these games.
....alright so here it is. I'm gonna leave it up to YOU, the League to decide.
mjFutures is on the waiting list currently, however I've had many people (in our league and NOT in our league) telling me not to allow him in.
Reasons: He's been banned from the MaddenSimLeagues community as I confirmed that with the community commish. And they have only ever banned 5 guys I believe. He and MXL had some controversy as well. So not only did 1 league advise me not to let him in but another league with a lot of good credentials also did the same.
Here is how you do it: --"Double Click" the share button at the start of the game to create a starting point. Then every 15 minutes of REAL TIME you must hit the Share Button once and go to the Share Screen. This will END the video clip. Do that every 15 minutes or less and keep doing it until the game ends. You can then upload those 4 or 5 "Video Blocks" to Facebook and share with the league.
in this league....in this forum....we encourage activity and creativity.
you wanna talk some smack? go for it. you wanna write an article on your team? go for it. you wanna gent about a bad loss u recently had? hell yeah go for it.
I've seen a couple of contributions....mostly in the scouting report are which is great.....but just a reminder that we love forum active owners talking about their team and the league.
this forum/website was created in August I believe (4 months ago)...with the start of Ps4 around a month and a half ago we had around 40 registered users.
we now have 100 registered users on the default site and 92 on the fantasy site.
...just wanted to let you guys know that our Hall Of Fame is NOT just a token or gimmicky thing.. we do have only 1 person in there right now...BUT over time we WILL add to it. Don't think of it as only a "winning" recognition....it is much more than that and will only accept the immortal owners that have a ton of years in this community under their belt...and that they do everything the right way. ...in have a few nominees in mind right now...BUT we will not admit another person until at least M15.
....see now this is another great reason that Broadcasting IS the best feature to happen to Madden Franchises of all time.
I happen to hop on the Falcons / Panthers game with under 2 mins left and the Falcons with an 11 point lead....and Otis and the Falcons have the ball trying to run the clock out. Panthers are clearly Run Blitzing the house. Otis does a little drag with his TE and gets close to a first down...
....now at this point he has a CLEAR PATH to the endzone...instead of scoring, he RUNS INTO Contact and gets tackled to make it 3rd and 1. He picks up the 1st...
....when you encounter an opponent that is NOT doing the right thing...either breaking a RULE or playing in an UNSIM way....we have a "DEDICATED SECTION" titled "Gameplay Complaints" on the Forum.
This is where you bring these topics up, in which they will be investigated and addressed.
You can also get a hold of either Me or Cabbage also.
I thought I was crazy and losing XP before I could spend it. So this morning after my week 4 game I did my practice (won, +2,000) and then wrote down how muck XP a few guys had. Now that we have advanced I looked again and I'm not crazy, I'M LOSING XP! here are the results;
Pos. Player XP morning XP now LT D.Brown 7044 4044 MLB J. Mays 4200 2035 DT R. Seymour 3326 2001 HB A. Smith 2001 2005 FS ...
Through 5 Weeks of play....there is 58 Total Players injured. That equates to almost 2 players per team.
....just wanted to let you guys know we are keeping an eye on it.
....use your backups, don't scramble like a mad man with your QB all the time, easy on that turbo button...its nice to have a little realism with injuries as it is a HUGE part of football.
I'm 39 years old (original ATARI kid ) been playing games my whole life, I now only play Madden, and only watch football on T.V. lame i know. so my opinion on these topics come with some experience, but my know how on forums is zero, until I joined this one, and this is my first sim league, so i will make mistakes. I have a wired connection, rarely drop games, and active every day!
I was disturbed by the bashing I was taking, in the chatroom, while trying to play a game with the 49 ers. Now I'm going to try to defend myself.
The Game of the Week Feature on the MAIN MEFL MEDIA page...(tab in upper left corner next to FORUM tab)....will now have the actual LIVE STREAM directly on it.....front and center!!! Its a beautiful thing...
I played the 3-0 Titans last night....and after the game was over I came away saying that this guys is a really good sim player. double d...keep it up man..your a good player and do it the right way.
also ive been hearing very good things about the Giants....jdawg26.
Just wondering if anyone else is seeing way to many injury's? My last game with the Raiders we had a total of 15 or more injury's in one game? It was almost every other play someone was getting injured. My team alone has 4 guys out for at least 5 weeks. Not sure if there is something we can adjust to calm it down a bit. Anyway my game with the Raiders owner was crazy good almost got my first W lol but couldn't pull it off.
I was going through the league stats and seen a funny glitch I thought Id share. Under fumble return yards for defense 3 guys have 65,535 return yards ahahaha. Not sure if anyone else noticed this or not just thought it was funny.
So we've come to a crossroads here with our Broadcasting efforts.
It is very evident that some guys struggle to broadcast games due to a poor internet connection. The biggest thing I see is when guys are wireless the stream never comes through well enough, and in some cases I've received complaints about the game becoming more "laggy" because of the broadcasting.
I feel that THIS FEATURE is the BEST THING to happen to Madden Franchises EVER. To be able to view other games and scout a guy if you want to is truly amazing. It forces MORE SIM BALL, which is always...
