Is this where the ***OFFICIAL*** celebration is being held?

I was going to pop champagne but my wife told me to stop being such a dork

My wife is 100% unaware of GLB and will remain that way.Great game!

Mine too. SHe didn't understand why I was getting so mad at my phone over the weekend....Go DETROIT!

Mine knows. She helped name one of my players.She even wanted me to buy flex points so that I could boost him and give him the full +6 custom equipment.

Mine knows also. Infact she is Jabba the Hut, all-star center of the FFA. She kept asking what I was spending all my time on when I first started, and she wanted to give it a shot.

Awesome.Unanimous selection to the all-star team too.Congrats to her.

I have a level 2 HB on my original account that I never created a player for. Had 600 Flex points from the two bonuses so I made the HB. Would like a backup spot, preferably not too deep.

What happened to big shirley?

Thomas Desroches left the newly crowned USA A League champion Detroit FBGs, creating a void at RB there. Big Shirley wanted to move there, so I released her.

So when does season 2 begin?

We will be more balanced than last season.. but I'm wary of a full out fun n gun if that's what you mean

He sold his soul to the devil(actually he just wanted to play with a buddy of his that owns a team)

From Bort posted April 21...

The offseason will be a few more days, less than a week for sure.

Just never venture into the other forums... I only go to the announcements, suggestions etc and my team forums.ETA: Should give us an appreciation of here. The reason why it is enjoyed is because there is a line placed clearly and that line is monitored and enforced here. There, it is pretty open for abuse.

Level 2 HB looking for a job. Like to get a special teams nod and hit some third string if possible. Second string may be asking a bit much. Low Ryder

Can anyone tell me why the entire DFBG's defense isn't nominated for all stars?

 

[The Duff Man]

Can anyone tell me why the entire DFBG's defense isn't nominated for all stars?

Because it is impossible to do a proper all star team right now. There is no way on D to separate out positions. The only way to look at DTs for example is to go to every team page and open up the player profile for each tackle, and I am sure noone who posted in that thread did that. They likely put their own DT down, and maybe checked one or two from some of the higher ranked teams.

Since I watch the Milwaukee games, I love the way John Hill plays.

Well I obviously think my NT was great, but the only reason he was decent was because of how good the entire D line was. I guess if I were to do nominations I would just fill in our entire D

 

[larry_boy_44]

if bored... we should nominate a team of FBG-only All Stars...

who played the best out of all the FBG teams???

Promotions have taken place. Detroit FBGs are now in AA in preparation for restructuring tonight.

one of the guys on my team asked, should i use my new flex points to level or buy custom gear?

what is the shark move, is it to use it on the custom gear?

We just signed a RB. If Duff doesn't mind his guy sharing time, I guess I can do it.

Hey guys. Homer here.

I created 3 players with the plan of getting a new team and starting off with lower-level guys and building for the long haul. Well, the situation has changed and now I have 3 players without a team. If anyone is starting a farm team or something, let me know.

Lvl 4 QB http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=139430

Lvl 2 FS http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=139556

Lvl 2 LB http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=143209

Thanks.

 

[phthalatemagic]

Why didn't you buy a team?

 

[Josie Maran]

Why didn't you buy a team?

Potentially some big changes happening. If so, I won't really have the time to manage a team.

I'd be interested in opinions on this too. I'm currently a Level 5 SS.

 

[WVU Alum]

I created a level 2 WR, posted my availability and got 25 offers in 5 minutes. I love the 700 new teams... sadly half of these guys didn't even play in season 1...

 

[WVU Alum]

Just got an offer to be 4th string on Flathead Just Go Krazy...

 

[ChampBailey24]

wow....some people are really active. 50 minutes after being released from Detroit I had an offer from a Pro team...

 

[aardball44]

My Level 5 Guard is being shopped around as trade bait by my team's owner. Aard de Gaard is the only player I'm running who's not on an FBG-owned team. I do plan to level his butt up to Level 8 later this week.

Aard de Gaard

Make my owner a trade offer

 

[Keys Myaths]

I got a crazy-stupid contract for my new DT.

If you want the maximum, it's out there for you, with a good signing bonus at that.

The best part is the 93 owners you reject. Nearly every one of them is whining about something.

It is a players market for sure. The only downside is if you get on a team that isn't good and doesn't make the playoffs. It is a LOOOOOONG break if you don't make the playoffs.

I've posted this on the forums, but i think this is an example of the devs poor business sense. There will be a lot of inactives that never come back from this break.

 

[Wild Young Billy]

Will one of you guys with a new team please trade for me? This game is not much fun with no one I "know" on the team.

I'm riding the bench as a Level 6 Center.

Yeah.I'm just leveling/moneying up with 1 year contracts with this guy until a FBG team needs me.

I sent him an offer for a Lvl 7 FB, his starter is Lvl 6 so maybe he will take it.

When does it turn back "on"? My strength level hasn't changed since the title game despite me having it on Intense Training ever since then.

No overnight training, salary, or XP gains until season 2 begins. I don't think the "when" has been answered yet. Last I saw was this (posted Monday by Digital Daggers)...

The offseason will be a few more days, less than a week for sure.

 

[aardball44]

I plan to level up my existing players as soon as the new season starts, but in the meantime I've created a couple of rookie OTs and gotten juicy new contracts while the gettin' is good. I plan on building a pair of pancake machines this season from the ground up.
