I checked the site out this thing seems pretty cool I will probably like it more once I get used to how things work. I made a TE.
Now you just have to sign a contract. Try to find a team with crappy TEs so your guy is starting or the back-up.

When you sign-up, you will receive "flex points" which can be used to create a player or two. The amount of FPs used to create a player will depend on the position that he plays. O-Linemen are 100 points, defensive players are 200 and QBs, HBs, & WRs are 300 points each. Some players are in higher demand than others so you should take a look through the boards before making your player(s). You can also use guides in the forums to determine the best way to build your players/distribute your flex points.
Once you create your player(s), you can find a team to play with and sign a contract. At this point in the season, there might not be a lot of player owned teams looking for level ones (you will start out as LVL 1 and work your way up), so you might want to sign a 1 year contract with a CPU owned team who isn't stacked at the position you play.
You don’t control the player during the actual game. The actual game is simmed based upon the build of your character. During the actual sim process, you can't watch. It lasts a short period of time ~15 min, but immediately after it’s done, you can watch a diagrammed play-by-play of every single snap taken.
All you are responsible for as a player is to manage where the skill points are assigned and build the character so that he fulfills the role that he’s supposed to play on the team.
Each season is 40 days and is split into a regular season and playoffs. The site will track your stats through each season and throughout your entire career.
I think its pretty fun, i know your only supposed to have one guy it says, but i actually have 4 going lol.
i've never played the sim league so i cant compare the two, but like i said, i think its fun and it gives you a quick football fix during the NFL offseason.
The following GLB players would be available to any MB member that gets ownership of a team. They would have to be traded for as they are currently on CPU run teams and their contracts won't end until after the upcoming season starts.

I'll be watching here if you get a team cash, and will see what I can do about getting my level 25 CB (level 28/29 after the first couple cames of the next season) on the MaddenBoard team

Can someone give me a link that tells the differences between the AAA AA A and BBB BB B leagues? I'm still trying to read up on how ownership goes so that I'm not completely lost when I start.

Differences are just the ranks. i.e. Pro-AAA-AA-A-BBB
If the actual running the team is the part you aren't sure of I do believe that there is an owner forum that can give you info when you get the team. Also, I am a member of USAORG now and I'm sure they will have a few guides about it. I will be sure to look whenever the grant me access to their forum.

I know that you won't be able to sign the higher level guys (like Tom's player) if you have a A or BBB team. I think teams from these lower leagues are only allowed to sign players as high as level 13...or something to that effect.
If you look at Pro team rosters, you will find that they are full of players with mid-20 LVLs. AAA team rosters will have guys in the high teens/low 20s, AA is lower, etc.
At the moment, I have 3 FAs who are under LVL 14 (they can sign with an "A" team) and a few more players that are on CPU owned teams (so you could trade CPU players with similar OVRs/LVLs for them if you like).
I'll check this thread later today or tommorrow to see if you got your team. If you don't get one by opening day, I'll sign with other teams.
I have been given a canadian BBB team that is starting off capped at Lvl 13 if anyone has any free agenct players that are close to that level Let me know ASAP.. I'll hook you up.
