web layout for another student

another student here is starting up a business and he asked me to help him do the website.

here's what I came up with so far, there will be more of course, but I'm kind of peeved right now cause the ones I came up with both looked like a printed piece instead of a website.

any suggestions and criticism would be great. and oh the company is dealing with digital highlights. targeting football teenagers and coaches. he wanted me to stick with red and black.

*edit* linked now, sorry sorry :p

oh, you're an ass. link to it.

otherwise, it looks pretty good. simple and clean. I assume those are two sections of the site, one on top of the other?

you did a good job, pretty clean and fits the site.

#2 has my vote if you are desiding on one of them, I like the layout a lot more then #1. Very clean, looks good, and affected.

logo look likes the "ea sports" logo, but other wise looks clean ...i would like to see the subpages on how they would look for content...
