The new cards come out around the time of the Superbowl, and the new season usually comes out in early March. We're having a pre-card draft and are looking for some alternates. Please see the "holiday pre-card draft" post for more details. I will let you know what to do if you are interested.
Opening Day for S-O-M is February 13th this year, about 2 weeks past normal. The online game will be 4 or 5 weeks later if past history is any indication.
