All Kinds of Fun!
No kidding. The website is here.
So far, negotiations for the teams is part-way finished. They are looking to have a 16 game season with no preseason. They are also incorporating a few changes similar to Canadian Football. Three point PAT from the 10 yard line, 4 point FGs from beyond 55 yards. No touchbacks or kneel downs.
Of more interest is an ability to ask the commissioner a question. I asked this morning about the availability of the old USFL stats. I suggested that publishing those stats in detail would be something that could add interest to the new league.
What I did not say is that the few of us that enjoy football board games could make teams for the various games. I doubt that Paydirt teams could be created, but maybe STATS has play by play information from the old USFL. (who knows?)
Keep an eye out for 2010. The new USFL is coming. Hooray!
Sycarion Diversions is a sister site of pinakidion.*. pinakidion.* deals more with religious and writing topics. This site houses information on games. Specifically, this has information on card games, board games, and role-playing games. Card games and board games are a collaborative effort with my friend Jeff. Jeff has created and briefly marketed one board game and has idea for lots of others. Role-Playing Games are my bailiwick. I've been playing since I was 10 starting with the Mentzer Basic D&D box. I stopped playing in college, but recently renewed my love for RPGs. In 2005, I discovered the Action! System from Goldrush Games. Since then, I have also found Microlite20 and OpenD6. It's a good time to game.

Part of the reason for this is that rules for games cannot really be copyrighted. However, the main reason is that the value of this site is the community I am a part of. Restrictions on ideas and games can delay innovation, even simple restrictions can be an impediment. Sure, I'd like a link and to be given credit, but that's up to the person.
