ADVANCE
The league will advance every 2 days at 10pm EST. Make sure that you will be able to get your game in otherwise don't even sign up because slackers will be removed.

GLITCHES
I have zero tolerance when it comes to glitches, so if you get caught doing ANY GLITCH you will be removed. If you are unsure if it is a glitch then it MOST LIKELY is one. Don't be afraid to ask if you are unsure.

OFFENSE GAMEPLAY
Your HB should not be your leading WR.
DO NOT call inside runs and run outside instantly towards the sideline
DO NOT swerve, try to use the juke/spin/stiff arm move
DO NOT drop back 15-20 yards every play.
DO NOT scramble to the sideline right away with your QB unless under pressure
DO NOT run the same play over and over, please mix up play calls
Presnap:
You may put players in motion, however that player must be set before you hike the ball.
No Huddle:
Hurry up offense may be used, but ONLY under these circumstances:
Within 2 minutes of the half
Anytime in the 4th if you are down by a large margin

4th down rules:
You may go for it on 4th down if it is reasonable, such as:
4th and 1 on or beyond the 50 yard line
4th and 2 on or beyond opponents 10 yard line
You are down in the 4th quarter you can go for it anytime if its reasonable
If you are up by a good amount, don't go for it, just punt it away and be considerate of other palyers


DEFENSE GAMEPLAY
DO NOT run the same play over and over, please mix up play calls
You must engage the O-Line if you are usering the D-Line
