Alright, fellas, the Warpath Madden League for XBox is officially formed, and we are ready to begin the inaugural season as soon as everybody picks their teams.

Krills, I still need your gamertag so I can add you to the invite list!

Unfortunately, we only had 7 people throw their names in the hat, so we'll be fielding a 7-team league this go-round. Hopefully, we'll get a couple more seasons under our belts before Madden 2006 comes out next August, and we should get a better turn out for those seasons.

We'll have a 14-round season, wherein everybody plays each other twice, followed by a 2-round playoff. The 3 teams with the best overall record make the playoffs; the team with the best overall record gets an automatic bid to the championship game.

Rounds will have a 3-day limit, and there will be no byes, so we're looking at a 42-day regular season.

Games will be ranked, with 4-minute quarters, All-Pro difficulty, fatigue, injuries and fairplay rules.

Since everyone here is a Redskins fan, I've decided to draw names at random to determine the team selection order. Here is the order:

1. Kingerock
2. Dr. Drayne
3. Krills
4. sactre77
5. FL SKINS
6. FRPLG

Unfortunately, the league formation process requires me to pick a team before it will create the league, so I picked the Lions. Hope that's okay.

Kingerock, please start the team draft by posting a reply to this thread with your team selection. The remaining players will post their selections in order.

Once you have made your team selection here, I will add you to the league invite list and you may login to the league page.

Let's get this thing rolling! I'd like to start the season this week.
