Blood 'n Guts Football is a fictional league using Front Office Football 2007 that is about to enter its third season. We've been using The College Years, but this year will be switching over to BB because a) outputting info from TCY is a chore (to say the least) and b) I'd like to allow guys to actually run some of the college programs.

The obvious issue is getting the draft classes out of BB and into FOF. I'll hand-edit these if necessary, but will be trying to use dr.flounder's BBCF to FOF Draft File Importer. At the very least I can use the util to get the players' names and bio info and do the ratings by hand.

I'm posting here in case anyone wants to get involved. There are also a handful of pro league openings for anyone who has FOF2K7 and would like to play in a linked college & pro league where you can recruit a guy and watch him progress through college, be drafted into the pros and eventually retire, maybe even as a Hall of Famer.

The league's website is here (http://bloodnguts.legendsport.com). The BB portion of the site isn't up yet, I have to do some housecleaning and get the file right before we start.

DOLA - forgot to mention that I'll be bringing some new blood to BB as some of my FOF GMs will be buying the game to participate in the college league. An early holiday gift for Arlie!

We just had our first phase today, budgeting/scouting. Still plenty of time to get involved before the first down of the Blood n Guts College League is run.

BnG College just finished the 1968 season and we're starting staff hiring for 1969 tomorrow. Plenty of good teams are available, please stop by http://bloodnguts.legendsport.com to check out the league.

You can even follow the players' pro careers after their graduate through the BnG Pro league (which uses Front Office Football).
