Customisation of teams

If you want to change up, now is the time to do it, let me know if there’s anything I can do to help. Would like to keep it old skool AFL / NFL but throwbacks welcome too

We have two New Orleans teams, would like to see that changed to one.

Here's the helmet and uniform for California Redwoods (all one word)

I'll make the Breakers team into St Louis Rams (for now)

Any chance I can move the Mississippee Rivermen to become Pottsville Maroons


If it needs to be somewhere more regional, can you give me a list of options that would fit as my American Geography is atrocious.

There's not a lot of early pro teams in the south (you're in NFL south), so IMO staying geographically true would become a hard task.

Sticking to defunct NFL teams, there's only three that I can find... Dallas Texans, LA Buccaneers, and Louisville Brecks/Colonels.

Of course, teams don't have to be from the NFL. Any pro level American football league fits the theme. Pre-NFL, AFL, USFL, former (non-active) XFL teams, etc... (These are how I see it, as a former admin for this league. Gustoon may wish to amend these if he has a different view.

OK Lets go with the

LA Wildcats or Pacific Coast Wildcats https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles_Wildcats_(AFL)

A travelling NFL franchise in 1926 and an XFL team in 2020

Team Colours: Home shirts like the XFL Uniform, Road shirts White and Light Brown trim/numbers as a throwback to the NFL franchise

Stadium name: The George 'Wildcat' Wilson Arena, Carson, California - pays homage to Wilson who the original team were named after, whilst playing in Carson, home of the XFL Wildcats.

Hey Gus, it will cost up to 22 credits for an individual to make changes. The League Admin pays a one off fee of 5 credits (if I remember rightly) and can make as many changes as he likes to as many teams as he likes (including renaming rookies)

Oh right my bad I assumed everyone could do it once I’d paid up.
I’ll bet on the changes now
