I'm back again too.

Only 5 more teams needed, we are on a fast track to fill this low budget theme league in under 1 month. Pretty amazing considering, the higher budget leagues available.

I do enjoy browsing the NFL Theme League Classifieds archives and finding stuff like this.

This is an open request to WhatIfSports:

Please clean-up the theme leagues for the various sports that you offer, especially the NFL SimLeague. More than half of the "available theme leagues" for NFL SimLeagues are over two years old.

If a theme league has not filled up within 365 days, then it will likely never fill up. However, these leagues never disappear once they are open. This clutters the theme page and just generally looks bad, not to mention that it makes it more difficult to browse theme leagues.

Out of 57 available theme leagues, 21 are from 2007, 14 are from 2008, 12 are from 2009 ,10 are from 2010.

Please consider implementing a time expiration period for non-filled theme leagues that disband after a certain number of days.

I will do an update for drwildcat almost 14 years later. Here we are with a ton of league fees paid over that span, and a pop ad every time you try to read a post.
84 available NFL Theme leagues currently, 13 are from 2007, 7 are from 2008, 5 are from 2009 and 4 are from 2010 and the one from 2005 ....Wow


Our Season 4, is now only 5 teams away. Try it, like it or hate it. It's a different brand of NFL Football.

Hello all, I would like to join the theme league but not sure what a theme league is? Do I draft only players that have played within the franchise? If so, I'm a long suffering Browns fan so why end the suffering now?? It hurts so good!! That would be my team of choice.. Please contact me thru site mail. I am known as BubbaDbone.

It's great to have interest from the Dynasty Football ranks. I'm optimistic we will be full by the end of this weekend and have preseason games next week, all inside of a month. We lose and gain members and the beat goes on toward a Season 4 launch !!!

And I feel your pain. I can respect any diehard non-bandwagon Bills, Jets, Lions, Browns, etc. fans who have lived through years of heartache and agony just like Vikings fans have.

I could probably add Chargers, Falcons, Titans/Oilers, Bengals, and Cardinals fans to the list too. Sorry Panthers, Jags, and Texans fans, but you haven't been around quite long enough for the same level of suffering yet!

I have sent sitemail invites out, in hopes of closing this League out and start Season 4. But, We are still an open NFL market for new members. Join us, if this League turns out to be fun. Find your way into our 50 mil tournament.

We are Full in only 26 days, Thanks to our core group and 6 new members. We are off to Season 4 in record time. When a challenge is more fun than a bottomless team budget. Bravo !!!

DCarden, what’s your thinking behind going up by 3 mill until you get to 59? Especially curious about your going up by 3 until you get to 59mill, basically an open league at that point.

A good point DS; 59 is basically 60. Maybe we should try 47 ! :)

Great question, danpsull71
I consider 50-59 as untapped grounds for Leagues. Even at 59 mil it does not have to be a copy and paste from a 60 mil league. It could ask for players by eras, salary ranges on units or player positions. The 50 mil league needs no twists, it is difficult and fun. A 59 mil league could be fun with a twist or 2, and draw a few 60 millers suffering from cookie cutter fatigue.
