Starting the final round of the regular season. First match-up; Pittsburgh at Cleveland. I found a sandwich bag of styrofoam and shredded paper with my players and remembered that I use to use it as "snow" on the field. So this being the final week of the season, lake effect winter conditions would prevail. So it's a snow covered field at Municipal Stadium. Almost makes me want to put a coat on! Additionally I'm using my old 660 board with a few rust spots on the field to simulate the less than perfect conditions. The Steelers (2-2) are coming off a 37-0 thrashing of the Cowboys. The Browns (1-3), have only scored 3 points in their last two games, both losses; and Bernie Kosar has been sacked 7 times in those two games. While not mathematically eliminated from the playoffs the Browns are basically relegated to the role of spoiler.

Thanks all! Yup Benoit solitaire rocks! Though I'd love to watch some competitive league games and learn from their coaches. Nanook, teams and divisions are as follows: NFC West = LA Rams, Oakland Raiders, San Francisco 49ers and Minnesota Vikings NFC South = Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, Atlanta Falcons and Houston Oilers AFC East = Baltimore Colts, New York Giants, Washington Redskins and New England Patriots AFC Central - Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals

Hi all, I've started up my 16 team solitaire league this year after a long hiatus. I was in the middle of my 13th season when I quit playing, but fortunately I found the records and have recently picked up where I left off. Also bought a new board as the old one had some rusty spots that affected the players movement. Pics below are of the inaugural game with the new board, Atlanta Falcons at Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles won 14-7. Got one more game to play in week 4 and then off to week 5, the final week of the regular season where all the games are division games. 3 of the 4 division champions have already been determined with just the NFC West to be decided. Still plenty to be determined in terms of the playoffs. 8 of 16 teams make the playoffs. Happy to be playing again!

Now that is a SUPER trophy! Love the Pittsburghese too! I vote that the Steelers be in next season to defend the crown. Oh forgot to mention Palamalu's hair. Great attention to detail!

Thanks for the info Zak. I look forward to hearing your report!

Considering buying a new board. Currently have a model 660 that has some rust that I think affects the performance of the players. My question is how does the HIPS field compare to the metal field in terms of performance and durability?
