Tweeter's Madden Central

Welcome to Gee-Tweeter's Madden Central. This site is intended to be informative and in no way, trying to bash any league. These are simply my opinions from my madden experience.

You'll see on the tool bar on the left there's a frequently asked questions link, that was taken right from madden and modified for easier navigation. You will also find a step by step document on connecting to your opponent for all of those rookie leaguers out there. Of course, we have to have "For the Critics." Some league owners may feel that I critiqued their league unfairly. Please post any opinions on there instead of flooding me with instant messages.

Again, this information is strictly from my experience and is based on my personal opinion. However, guidelines were set to fairly judge the league.

Commissioner dedication: Does the Commish handle issues in a timely manner. How does he react to a heated situation, for example 2 owners that fail to cooperate with each other. How does resolve player issues. Does he use his support team (co-Commish and other management people). Does he hold the utmost sportsmanship for his team owners even in the face of stupidity.

Player/Owner involvement: How often are the player and/or owners on-line to play their games and talk trade.

Rosters: Are rosters up to speed with the current NFL. Or are they customized fairly.

Server Availability: Is the server available when needed.

Accessibility: Does the league have a website and/or use forums to communicate league ideas and player movement.

Coming soon: Team page for each team that I have. Individual Player Stats, Records, Rankings, etc...

Well, thanks for stopping by. Hope this site helps, as far as your madden league experience.

On-Line Leagues	Team/Record	Pros	Cons	Rating	Media
JFL (Jungle Football League)	0-0	31 team league. Looks like another good one. Recently joined. Heading to off-season right after play-offs.	No comments at this point	Not yet rated	Yahoo
PFL (Pure Football League)	3-1	24 team league, which moves a lot of the dropped teams' players to free agency. This allows other weaker teams to obtain necessary talent. If you like the feeling of being a real NFL manager and coach, then this is the league for you. Salary cap infringements, player contract clauses. Monitored player movement. Custom rules that you will not see anywhere else. All league officials are highly involved with the progress of the league. Many teams have their own websites. The list goes on and on.	A few roster errors have hampered the league from really taking off, but looks like the current one is a keeper.		Yahoo
MNFL (Madden NFL)	1-2	Awesome 31 team, Coach Only League. Very nice, well kept, up-to-date website. Here you have to out-wit your opponents, not cheese them to death like other leagues. Uses all-madden-net forums.	Because this is a "Coach Only" league, owner are hesitant to trade off their better players, but the teams are well organized.		Yahoo
CNFL (Cable NFL)	5-1	Very active 31 team owners. Trading and playing their games promptly. Top notch players in this one too. Server is up round the clock. Uses all-madden-net forums.	Simple website, but it has all the vital information that you need.		AIM
PFL (Playaz Football League)	0-6	31 team league. Off-season was done in about 3 days. That's pretty good for those that never got that far. We've just started season four, and by the looks of it, there are some top notch players on there.	Read the rules. If you are accustom to certain anti-cheese rules, you won't find them here. Individual defensive movement, 3-4 OLB blitz-with the line shift is allowed in this league. Commish response, "there's a way to beat it."		Yahoo
STWF (Strive to Win Football)	2-2	Well organized 31 team league. Commish tries very hard to keep the owners happy and keeping the league running. Excellent website. Lot of hard work went on the site. Utilizes all-madden-net forums, which is a big plus. Owners are very active to trading and playing their games.	Some cheese play, but what league really goes with out cheese?		Yahoo
PML (PIMP League)	4-1	31 team league. Lot of effort put into the website. I could sit on the main page and sing along. Owners are pretty active trading and getting games played. Utilizes all-madden-net forums, which is a big plus. Server is generally up for use. Commish dedicates a lot of time to the league and updating the website.	Some may say that teams are a bit lopsided. Hmm, how can an expansion team have an "over-all" better the Rams or the Steelers? You decide.		Yahoo
Europa	6-4	31 team league. Server is generally available during the entire day. Informative website.	Because the league was restarted 3 times, a lot of players have dropped out, so there are several open slots. Some teams have been open from week one. No recruiting support to fill open slots. Played CPU 3 weeks in a row. By the looks of it, I'll be playing CPU the next 3 weeks. Not a league to stick around in.		AIM & ICQ
2K2	11-4	31 team league. Server is generally available all night. Some decent competition.	Simple league. Players play when the want to and only by their strict schedules. Many open teams throughout the season. Commish takes a while to get back to you. I played the CPU 5 times already.		Yahoo
UFL (Ultimate Football)	7-3	Outstanding 31 team league. Commish is hard, but he is fair. He has great support from his officials; especially from he web guy. Makes you really feel like a true NFL team. News, highlights, reports. Quality owners, very competitive players. Generally, league is full to capacity. One of the best leagues on the net.	Player movement is not monitored close enough. There have been reports of lopsided trades through out the league.		Yahoo
POWFL (POW Games)	7-9	31 team league. Every week there's always some to play because of a unique subbing system. Never have to be the one stuck playing the CPU. Extensive website that has all necessary information about players and teams. Stats & Standings. Server is usually up round the clock. The league is very competitive and top notch players.	Owners are very hesitant to trade players. Lot of trash talking among owners through out the season. Server is on EA.net, so if EA is down, then server is down. Two instances during last season where league was down for an extended period of time.		Yahoo
