The draft is underway!

Click here to go to your war room, or visit the war room item in the draft menu.

This league has just begun! Because this is a new league, it will be a few days before the allocation draft begins (the countdown timer above shows when the first pick will fire). This is a great time to get a team as you will be able to build it from scratch! If you don't want to wait for the draft, though, check to see if there is a team in an established league that you can take over.

NOTE: As of the last sim, this league was under the minimum 20% capacity. Invite your friends to join MyFootballNow to keep this league alive! Then send them to this league to become the owner of a team! The league will expire at 8/01/2025 8:00 am.

Does it really have an effect on anything or is it just cosmetic. It really doesnt seem so on field goals or passing game. If it does have an impact on kicking then having a basic setting for max FG would be way off if you had a 15+ mile an hour wind in your face

There is an effect, but because you can't gameplan around it it's not terribly significant. For example, fumbles are more likely in precipitation, snow reduces traction and acceleration. Wind does affect the flight path of the ball and thus will affect FG accuracy depending on which direction it is blowing.

I do have a plan to include the forecast, and once that's in place increase the influence.

Wow, I saw an Arizona game with 101 heat and thought how they'd fair if they had to travel to say Green Bay.
