Cool and Collected

Collecting pop culture toys, comics, and collectibles collections

August 9, 2013 By Brian 21 Comments

Dun dun dun dunnnnn … The Madball Football League is back!

It’s that time of year again, and the Madball Football League is making its triumphant return!

Last year, the golden turtle was claimed by Poe Ghostal, and now it’s time to see who can wrestle it from his grasp.

All the previous team owners are invited back to rejoin this season, BUT this year will be a little different–this year you have to actually play (ahem Jaime). Also new this year, each team owner will need to contribute at least one item to the prize pack. Last season, we had some awesome prizes, and we want an even more amazing prize pack this year.

We are looking for a dozen or so pop culture/toy bloggers, who are also football fans, to join this fantasy football league. It’s a lot of fun and public shaming is definitely encouraged.  If you’re interested in joining (or re-joining), add a comment below and we’ll get you suited up for the MFL!

    So supposing someone didn’t know squat about football or the players. Is it possible to go into it totally blind without doing any research? I think it could be interesting to jump in and see how I’d do on luck.

      Sure it is, we had several teams last year that were managed by non-sports fans (and some of them almost won the whole thing). HOWEVER — it does require you to adjust your team roster each week to make sure all your players are actually playing. Ten minutes a week is all it needs to take, but some of us spend a great deal more time futzing around with things. If you don’t manage your team, or bail halfway through the season, it’s not really fair to the rest of the league.

      I’ll send you an invite regardless. If you want to give it a shot, I think you’ll have fun.

        Don’t listen to Brian, it’s all an elaborate ploy to embarrass us non-football-knowin’ people.

    I’m game. I’ve got a team assembled in another league but I think I can manage two. If there’s room I’m down!

      Of course! You should have already received an invite, but let me know if you didn’t.

    The sting of Tank narrowly defeating me and winning an MOTUC Trap Jaw as a result will never go away. Although Trap Jaw is not, vengeance WILL be mine!
