Mutants playing football?

Ok so in the before times when the retro games this podcast plays were just games I owned a Sega Genesis. Well actually I still have the thing. But I digress. On this console were a pair of games that were outlandish and due to that were just plain fun. These games have alas been neglected up until this point. These games were Mutant League Hockey and Mutant League Football. I actually owned the hockey game and I had bunches of fun playing against my brother. We tended to split games; I'd win on points scored but he'd kill all my guys. Again why exactly am I mentioning this? Well the guy who made the originals on that venerable genesis is trying to remake the game now that the trademark has been something or other. I'm not a legal person. If you want in on a football game that doesn't take itself in any way seriously that includes field hazards such as holes in the field or landmines they've started a Kickstarter at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mendheim/mutant-football-league?ref=live. Help them get it going and perhaps we can see a game fill the niche of over the top sports games again.
