I'm WAAAAAAAIIIIIIIITING.....
Is there any Tecmo going on?
Come on people, tell us what's going on! I haven't had any vicarious Tecmo action for weeks!
After an amazing Super Bowl I in which the Cincinnati Bengals clipped the Philadelphia Eagles 7-6 in the greatest game ever played, founders Matt O'Toole and Nick Ciofani decided to go dorm-wide with their obsession. Chas Claus and Tim Daggett agreed to become the first hosts of TSB and the gray box took over room 301. Seventeen players signed up to play and the draft order was done completely randomly. The Bills, Oilers, Chiefs, Eagles, Bears, and 49ers were banned from human use. The first terrible pick was the first draft choice ever, as Jim Higginbottom (who, to his defense, had little idea who to pick) took the Redskins over other more suitable teams such as the Raiders and Giants. Jamie Peters pounced on the Giants with the next pick, I took my Bengals again, and Aaron Turner landed the Raiders. A few weeks into the season the commissioners decided to allow Todd Weaver to join, but we forced him to take the Patriots.
TSB2K, the moniker for the second season, was a huge success. The commissioners were able to crank out a season of 18 players in about half a semester and most of the people involved had a blast. The growing monster that was Tecmo attracted six new faces for the third season, leaving four teams to be banned. Those teams ended up being the Bills, Giants, Raiders, and 49ers. In season two, the Raiders and Giants were not banned as their divisional counterparts the Chiefs and Eagles were off the market. This season the Bears, Oilers, Chiefs, and Eagles were all in play. To deal with expansion the system that is currently used was implemented.

Apparently it's a really hard thing to do, because for some reason the average (or perhaps below average) person has problems thinking things out to more than one, perhaps two, steps ahead. Please take the time to read a previous post from Schlegel:
Why is it that I have won the Super Bowl with two teams that have never won it before?
...I'm going with a failure on the part of those who came before you *cough D, cough Smiley.*
Hmm....might there be a reason TJ hasn't posted the Super Bowl's outcome? :-)
NFC Wild Card game one: Lions vs. Eagles--Sanders takes on QB Eagles, but the fact that QB Eagles can both run and legally throw the ball (besides the fact that his recevers can actually catch) carry the day for Travis.
