time to bring the pain austin. a little payback seems to be in order for this game.
you are our only loss from last year that we haven't paid back yet, fancy boys! we're comin' & HELL"S COMIN' WITH US!! (love that line)
Isn't this what you were saying in Season 2 after we beat you in Season 1?But I would not be surprised. You levels are higher than ours and ever since that 309-0 game, our team has been haywire. I think we may have fried some of the code the sim uses to run our team. We've had an awful lot of inexplicable #### happening lately.

I'm not wanting to meddle here, but I do not see how you are going to get anything but absolute garbage time on that team. THey are all L22+ and you will probably only set foot on the field when its a blowout. My Fancy team is similar and I would not even put an L8 on Special teams.I would really urge you to try and find a team that fit you level better, since you will have a hard time leveling up with no playing time.

That said, Da Raiders and SnowMOnkey know their stuff and that is an excellent team.

But you are meddling. And I wouldn't start undercutting other teams, unless you want that done to you. Who are you to delve into the motivations of Da Raiders?

Should I stay on my current team until I level up enough? I know nothing about the ins and outs of this so all advice like this welcome.

Hey if you want L8s go right ahead. I thought maybe there was misunderstanding somewhere and I was hoping to prevent four future pages of "Why did he sign me if he's not going to play me." I also think its fair to let fellow FBGs know that it is not practical for an L8 to expect any playing time except blowout minutes on a L22 team. If that's not the case I've certainly left it open for you to correct me.

Until you reach L16, it is my opinion that players are best off in situations where they can get an average of at least 35 plays/game or their growth will be severely stunted. 40-50 plays is optimal, but only incrementally better. Below 25 plays/game is when it really starts to cut in to your development.But being in a good organization is also very important and I know Da Raiders is one of the better owners around here. I know he would be honest with you in what you expectations should be, if you ask him.

I'm not on the team, so I have no idea. I'm not going to predict what Da Raiders' plan is for Gator. I do know this - on a team with many high level guys that I had last year, I played some low levels to develop them. Ultimately, there are a dozen different situations a team full of high level players could have regular use for a low level guy. And from what I know of Da Raiders, he's a stand up guy and won't bury people on the depth chart. So either Gator will get playing time, or he'll be informed by Da Raiders that he should find another team.
 
:bye:

cos is pretty much on the money. i wouldn't want someone's #1 player at level 8. you wouldn't get enough time. HOWEVER, if you'd like to jump on board & learn from people who have already ####ed up, so know what not to do, learn tactics & be part of a winning extremely high level team, come on board & let's rock! there are only 3 games left in the season for us, my lower level players will see time in 2 of them. a level 10 fb who wanted to play for us saw 36 & 33 plays in our last 2 games. you won't play in playoff games. completely up to you. i'll sign any fbg to a 1 year contract. (ends on day 40)

 
How does this work if I finish this season(gain another level at least) where I am and then try to join up with you next season?

Good to know about a Raider fan. ;) Awaiting reply from PM. :wub:
I created a player for Da Raiders when he posted in here saying he needed players quickly for his then expansion team in Season 1. He then proceeded to trade me after season 1 to a random team without discussing it with me.
thanks drifter! i had no real clue what i was doing then & have apologized to you at least 3 times & have told you that i have regretted it ever since. i did send you to a pro team that had won the championship the previous year, but whatever.this decision has haunted/pissed me off since i made it. drifter is one of the best player owners out there & i ####ed up plain & simple.
 
for anyone that is heading up a new team (or a crappy one), I've got 2 players on D-League teams that I would like to move onto real teams for Season 4. they will both be at least level 12 by the start of Season 4. I have built them with specific positions in mind, and they have solid builds. I would like to start, but don't need to...I just want snaps and a good team atmosphere.

speedy, blitzing OLB - Carnivorous Contraption

pass blocking LOT - Endless Void

if you are interested in either, please send me a message in GLB and indicate you are FBG. I think the guys on the soon-to-be-pro ***Official*** Football Guys can vouch for me as an agent and teammate.

doesn't matter what level your player is. we take all kinds. you will probably benefit the most by playing one season in the d leagues then moving up. but thats not necessary. pm da raiders or myself over there. we'd be glad to have you.

I'm DC of Tim Tebow sucks and its a new canadian team. I could use you, but we're waiting until the offseason to sign anymore players. The team chemistry hit is too much right now. If interested in coming to play with us, shoot me a pm. My user name over there is statman68.

I'll shoot you a pm later. Can't get on that site from work but I could use your OLB and you'd probably start. Depends on if you boost or not.
 
Has anybody seen or heard of anyone selling their GLB players? I've got an account with 4 players. A lvl 23 OT, 22 LB, 16 DE, 14 RB.

I just don't have the time needed to keep up with these. And, with a baby coming in a few weeks, it's gonna get even worse. I've dumped $ into these guys, so I'd hate to just give them away.

I haven't, but I've taken over an account because the player didn't want to screw me over.
 
I have a level 15 elusive back that will want a FBG expansion team to call home next season. He is the only lower level player I have that may survive my player purge.

Low Ryder

Well, I don't think Bort approved of anyone making money off of the game. But if you keep it on the dl, Bort doesn't care if a different person takes over a particular account.

nice. a 6.7 YPC is solid. true, it's against D-leaguers, but it should still translate fairly in lower level human leagues.
Very short sighted build IMO. :cry:
The head fake is great against a bunch of D leaguers with low agility and vision.... down the road you need a heck of a lot more speed and agility to have any real impact.

yeah, he blew is wad on the SA's, but at level 9 he has time to correct it and still be a solid elusive back. especially if he hasn't boosted yet this season.

Why? He's several levels away from competing against high vision defenders
 
What are you guys defining as high vision defenders? Baggins showed that the combination of high agility and SA's can be darn effective against higher level guys.

I'd define it as 50+Doesn't Baggins have Juke too? I think Juke is more effective than Head Fake...just speculating here

I have a current level 12 but will boost to 15 at the end of the season G.

Would like to go to a run oriented team. Looking for a 1 year contract with min $50K bonus to pay for upgrades. Prefer to start but will consider other possibilities as well.

If he starts moving in the right direction now. I think the head fake is prob the least important SA for the elusive back as well. Just not a big fan of this. I can see him being pretty effective in the D leagues but then really struggling in the real leagues.
