Has there been an update to this list?

Dude, your QB hasn't even bought all his regular equipment. Not sure I'd call that 'set.'

Well, he's not perfect, but he is the best I can get. He will boost to 14, so I guess it's better than nothing. I have asked him about this.

It's when you use flex points to level up the 3 times, done at the end and beginning of seasons.

Hey guys, I have a level 13 DE that I really am not going to need. He is my player but I am bringing on a Level 19 DE and would have 1 more DE than I would really need. Figured, I might look for options. Was looking for max cash (or actually a level 13 or higher CB willing to be a Dime back would work too) but would be willing to give a FBG discount and trade for $275K. I do not 'need' to trade him but thought this might be a good option. I am thinking of more of going to an expansion team or lower level team and have him start since I can have him on the bench of my team.
Any interest, let me know.

Looks like he has 6 now. I was just quoting the first post, which is out of date.

Not sure about all of the new teams but the first page is pretty much a novelty only at this point. No one is really using it to scout for teams or join anymore. So I am not sure of the value of adding new teams as opposed to just Adding em to your sig.

so after a couple months of this how do you guys like it?
for me I sold my team because it was a lot of work and time, now I have just 4 players and it is fine. I do miss the power I had with Playing time, now I’m at the mercy of the owner.
at the beginning I dumped around $30, I'm done using my money on this, but I will just casually participate. while when it came out I spent a lot of hours there.
Also some of the people that are working for Bort should learn some better customer skills.

I am still enjoying it and enjoying running my team. I tend to do the dynasty modes on vid games and spend more time putting together a team and sim thru the season than actually playing the game so this is prob right up my alley.

also this is my 1st mmorpg that I actually played, and I was never a fan of RPGs except for 2-3 titles. being a football fan was the main reason I even considered trying a MMORPG

I have never done any other on-line games and being a football fan is what got me over there too. Most of my vid game playing on X-Box or whatever is usually sports related with the occaionsal Halo or Call of Duty.

There is a major loophole that I hope they close, but if they don't I am not going to be the only team not taking advantage of it. I think they should disallow roster moves during the playoffs.
In AAA2 last year, the eventual champion added a Guard that was a level higher than what he had on his team just before the championship game, then added a WR before the championship game. The WR caught an 80yd bomb enroute to a convincing win. The loophole can be used if players contracts end during the playoffs.
Basically if teams have a verbal agreement to assist each other, they can sign their players to 40 day contracts on day 36, and the next season that player will get freed up in the middle of playoffs. They could stay on their team or if their team is out they could go to another team for one or two games, then rejoin their old team for day 1 of the next season.
You could only do this every other season, but you wouldn't want to move the whole team anyway, just a couple of guys. This might be enough to turn the tide on a close playoff game.
I really hope they close this loophole, there is no need for contracts to expire mid season. All contracts should expire at the end of the season, and at the very least there should be no roster moves during the playoffs. That being said, I am not going to sit by and watch my competition do this again while doing nothing.
For this season I have 3 lvl 16 DEs and one lvl 16 LB that all expire on day 36. If my team ends up being out of it and your opponent if playing these games then look me up and you can fight fire with fire.
I am only offering this to FBG teams who aren't competing against each other.

I'm extremely frustrated with my team right now. We out level probably 90% of our division but finished near the bottom (6-10 record). We played a team today that we pretty much vastly out-leveled due to most of our team boosting and there's not and we still lost. I'm a level 20 HB, I had 12 rushes in the game. 8 went for positive yardage, 4 went for negative yardage. This is pretty much a common theme against the tougher but should be beatable opponents. I feel like I'm playing behind the Dolphins o-line but we have level 21, 21, 22, 20, 19 across the line and playing against level 18's, 19's on the better teams and still getting dominated. I think this is managements fault, game planning, players not being active etc but I'm not sure, anybody have any input?

I'm going through "player creation" withdrawal. It's been over a month since I made a new one. Started thinking about names today though.

Yes it does... And by "bang" I think you meant LA's DEs banging our QB Smoke Squatiron to the turf. NINE SACKS! ouch.
Congrats to LA on the 9-6 win... What a crazy-### finish.
One minute left Score is LA 6- FFA 3
FFA wide reciever Theslo Whitegi drops a 3rd down pass at the Riot's 2 yard line with 47 seconds left.
FFA FG brings it to 6-6.
Next posession, LA is forced to punt with 17 seconds left.
LA force a fumble on the punt return, LA recovers!
LA kicks the game winning 46 yard field goal.
Game Over.

Oh hells yes. Most definitely. Our 20 RB needs a better blocker. If you're built for running I bet we can get you in a few carries too.Grinnell Pioneers

Link to build my fb Tell me what you think.
I have to say, havent found one other FB including Borts, who have higher bars then me. Borts dude does have higher running but I have higher blocking. The over all bar is equal. I would like the rock 5-10 times a game but understand the roll of blocking is primary a fb roll. Will keep him to view all for 1 day.

Awesome, looks great. We'd love to have you. Our biggest weak spot currently is FB, where we've got a non-boosting guy who is only level 14. He's pure spec'd for blocking, though, so it works for us right now (barely). The Pioneers are 28-1 and are currently on a 20 win streak going into this season. If all goes according to plan, we'll be in Oceania Pro next season.ETA: Whenever we actually get to control our gameplanning and situational players, we could use you as our short yardage back, as both of our main RBs are speed backs.Link to build my fb Tell me what you think.

I'm holding off on boosting any of my higher level guys, so I couldn't help myself and created a new level 1 LB today and put him in the D-League. of course now I will have to create an offensive player to even it out.

We are about to have some fun FBG FFA-style over at GLB....
I am shocked at how many people 'flame' Cobra Kai and Tea Baggins over there. (both CK owner and Tea's Agent are FBGs)
Either way, we are stirring the pot!

Is there any benefit to training Speed as an OG or OT? I've noticed that when the LG pulls, he can never get to the hole before the HB no matter how much speed he has.
Does speed actually help when facing speed DE's, or is agility the better option?
Speed isn't listed as a major or minor attribute, so I didn't think it was that important for O-linemen.

What OG level of speed have you seen when pulling vs the speed of the back? I mean.... the highest speed I have seen on a G has been around 12. My power back has almost 30 speed. So, of course he is not going to get there before the RB. As for your facing DE's... agility.jevy said:

Read the bug forum post about G blocking AI. G's with 30+ speed and agility are unable to pull any better than those with 12 speed.
