The 2011 season will get underway this week with the start of the Preseason. The Preseason will run for four weeks starting with the traditional Hall of Fame game between A II P and H this week. Though there are no Hall of Fame inductees this year, the Hall of Fame Game will return to Philadelphia for after a one-year hiatus from the Hall of Fame founding city. It will mark the first time H plays a game in Philadelphia since a Week 13 2009 loss to Tormenta. H left Philadelphia after the 2009 season (in which they went 3-11). The Preseason will conclude with the Mexican Seafood Classic between 69ers and United in Albuquerque on September 1st. Preseason is usually a springboard for the season in that it gives teams opportunities to gauge their rosters, most notably rookies and draft picks, as well as players in different situations. History has shown that successful Preseason results do not automatically ensure team success in the Regular Season. However players that have had successful in the Preseason, usually go on to have a good season, or in the case of rookies and backups - successful futures. With the Preseason, the entire roster counts towards a team scoring each week, so it will be easy to track the development and production every week.
