    the-oil-blog
    The commissioner has placed the orders for the championship mini-helmet and championship jerseys. Because the 'Mericans already have a helmet, their manager gave the prize to the Liberty Bowl runner-up Boomtown Brawlers. The Redlegs finished third in the Liberty Bowl. Below are the mockups for the helmet and the three conference champions' jerseys. View previous years' helmets and jerseys here. The helmets are made by HelmetNation.com and the jerseys by HopcoSports.com.

    2018 OIL Draft Orders

    With the 2017 season in the books, it's time to start determining the draft order for 2018. As a reminder, the OIL determines draft order as follows: 

    1. This league will always reward success. Therefore, the draft order will be determined by order of finish. The league champion will have first choice as to which draft position he wants, followed by the number two team, three, four and so on until the last place team gets its choice.
    2. The purpose of this rule is so that members perform their best in the playoffs (championship or consolation rounds). Those who continue to manage their roster and win will be rewarded with a better choice of draft positions. 

    ​Starting now, we begin filling in the blanks of the 2018 order, beginning with Zerger, Cliburn, and Brake.

    'Mericans, NFC Win Liberty Bowl

    the-oil-blog
    The Arrogant Americans have won the 2017 Liberty Bowl. As such, they have won the Tenequer Memorial Trophy and a custom mini-helmet from HelmetNation.com. But, since Cliburn is a benevolent overlord, he has announced he is donating the mini-helmet prize to the second-place finisher: the Boomtown Brawlers. It should look pretty good, and the commish can't wait to see the finished product.

    ​Congratulations to all three 2017 champions. The championship jerseys have been ordered, and the trophies will be shipped soon.
