I'm in with Texas

I'm in with Florida

My buddy asked me to sign him up with California. His username is acd245

I'll take Iowa.

Yes to Michigan.

Any stadium rules?

I didn’t initially post any restrictions on stadium. Ideally I’d say choose one located in your state. How do you think we should handle teams in states with no stadium option?

If we play with 24, please include me with Indiana

My two cents- states with no stadiums should select either ‘what if sports’ stadium OR stadium in close proximity to selected state ( for example, Connecticut would choose New York or Boston)

Ohio, please and thank you.

At this cap, I think my home state of Washington can compete!

I think if you don't have a stadium at all you should pick a stadium from a contiguous state.

Also I told 82689 the wrong username, Could you switch me to California please.

Looking forward to this! Thanks.

Oh, I'll take my home state of Connecticut. Mo Vaughn, George Springer, Rob Dibble and a bunch of Irish guys from the 1890’s.
