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.

Custom Leagues: Anyway to have just a single city name like the default teams do?

I took over Jacksonville in CUST-21 mid season. Now that the off season is here, I used the customization feature to move the team to Albuquerque. However, I'm having trouble getting the name that is displayed for my team to display the way I want.

When I started the only name displayed for my team anywhere in the UI was Jacksonville unless the an abbreviation was needed and then JAX was used. Then I made the following changes:

1) Customize->Change Name: I went in and replaced Jacksonville with Albuquerque and hit save.
2) Customze->Change Team City:
-- Changed the Actual City drop down list from FL-Jacksonville to NM-Albuquerque
-- Changed the City Display Name from Jacksonville to Albuquerque
-- Changed the 3-letter abbreviation from JAX to ABQ

So to summarize, I replaced every instance of Jacksonville in those Customization items with Alburquerque and my displayed team name changed from "Jacksonville" to "Albuquerque Albuquerque" Hmm...not really what I was going for.

I have since gone back and changed Change Name->Team Name field from "Albuquerque" to "Aliens" which makes my team name Albuquerque Aliens which is the name I want...but I wanted the team listed simply as "Albuquerque"

Is there anyway to do this?

I think you're right, once you've given you team a name it can't be removed via the interface. I've removed "Aliens" from your team name so you should just be "Albuquerque" now.
