Boy the flood of offers continues. WR Roger Jenkins has accepted the offer from Berlin/IrishHand, LB Richard Jenkins is awaiting the offer from Icy, and G Buster Jenkins feels very lonely right now.

Offer sent from the Toledo Swords

It's bordering on the absurd. 21 PMs in the last three hours regarding Davis. One guy sent a treatise that was FOUR full paragraphs, I assume about why I should join his team. (Zero chance I'm reading all of that.) I'll be glad when an offer comes from a name I recognize. Their PM interface doesn't making deleting very easy, either.

I'm still filling out my team. Needs are:

Level 10+ FB to start
Level 9+ TE to start
Level 7+ WR to be the third guy and return
Level 10+ FS to start and a 5+ FS to backup
Level 9+ OT to start and a 5+ OT to backup

I'm hoping to get MrBug's DT and CB in, then I think we'll be set. If anyone has guys in the above group, PM me in the game. Here's my team link:

Potatus Frye signs a one year deal, gets a $100,000 bonus + 3500 a day.....

USA pro league....

I have offers from the New York Sack Exchange (which says it includes you but was an 0-16 team), Newcastle Surfers, and Riverside Revolution. I don't have one from the Toledo Swords.

I think I'm going to retire Guard Buster Jenkins so I can spend his flex points on the other guys.

Arles,

Not sure if he'll let me out of my contract as it stands. The CB is up on Day 1 of season three, the DT is up only on Day 9 if he still holds out.

Worst case we'll wait for both guys if that's OK. Both will start once we are able to land them.

Anybody got a good LB (like level 11 or higher) available? My team isn't quite the class of IrishHand's or Icy's, but we are a pretty solid team that just got swapped into USA AA league. My team is in good shape, but we need a stud LB to lead that part of the defense. Finding a well built LB in FA is becoming close to pointless...lots of bad builds out there! Anyway, if you have one, let me know! :)

Other than that, I'm excited about the swap. We won't go 13-3 again, but the goal is to be competitive and stay in AA and we'll build from there.

OK, we've filled the starting OT spot and WR spot. If anyone has options on the others, let me know!

The CB is out of the contract

Glad to have Bug aboard. We have some room for more FOFCers. Just send Arles an IM in the game.

Arles, PM sent in the game but as I said, I have no idea what's going on with GLB.

Buc, I think we're stuck now. Since the CPU now runs Ben's team, I can't sign or even trade for your guy. I think they plan on giving it to another owner. At that point, he would either have to agree to release or trade you. That said, if you can find a way out, we'd love to have you!

I have a level 16 CB available. I'd like for him to go to someone on these forums:

headtrauma, contract sent. Come join Bug, Cartman, me and others!

headtrauma, we could use your TE, CB and FB. All would start.

My FB and CB are on board!

Excellent. The team is really coming together. I could give you an offer for your TE, but I promised the level 12 guy some time so you would have to backup and be a ST demon.

Arles, i'm trying to get my wr cut from the team.. but i got a feeling i'm stuck till day 7 at the earliest

It's OK. I'll be glad to add you whenever. We are OK at WR to start the season.
Bug, I sent out your new FS a contract offer. I may be signing a level 10 guy (who will boost) to start, but you would be the only backup and a big ST guy.

So am I the only one who basically got bored enough to quit this game?

I never got involved, though it sounds sort of interesting.

I think it is what you make it to be.

I skipped most of the talk after Ben said he's dropping the team: I have a Level 18 QB if Ben lets me go.

Bucc is in the same boat you are. The CPU now controls the team, so you can't be released until someone else takes over the team, and then you have to talk them into letting you go.

Looks like its too late. :(

It's not CPU now, but I would be surprised if he let me go. I will write him.

Jesus people are like vultures.

Been a FA for all of 30 seconds, 3 offers are already in.

West Bend Warlocks could use some DT/DE, Backup HB, Backup LB help.

I have the team through at least season 4 so, not going anywhere

I shot you a PM there Ragone. We could really use your WR on the Trolls.

We have two final needs. I'd like a better QB (lvl 10+) to platoon with Mustang's guy and one WR who is better than level 10. If Ragone can come our way, that would help.

But, if anyone knows of a level 10+ QB, he would be in our starting 2 and get a ton of PT.

Wish my QB was higher, but he's only a level 5. Sent him to an Oceania team to get some PT for a year.

Just got a level 12 QB, so I think we're Ok there. We can still use a top WR though!

I created a ST WR Arles. Just go through my plaeyr page to check him out

OK, I'd like to add one more WR, so you're OK if he's 4th-5th on the depth chart?

YUp. I created him to be a return man :)

Ah, I have Shifty Cruiser at CB to be a return guy too. ;)

That's fine, I wish that the WR position had return specialist as one of the special skills like the CB position does.

Are the forums lagging for you on gb?

No, you're not. I've been on the fence these last few days about what to do, and I've decided that this game just doesn't do enough for me to justify my time. I'm gonna retire Arthur Fonzarelli.

terribly. What do you think we need now. I was able to sell some lower level guys that wanted out for some cash. So, I will have around 100K coming in tomorrow. I am thinking we need one stud LT, one better WR (I landed a level 12 one in a deal, so maybe he's enough) and that's about it.

The level 4 RB we just signed is boosting to level 7 and is a power back. So that's good enough for a backup. I also have a level 9 (boosting to 12) LB coming in via trade. Mustang's QB will boost, so that's a level 12 and level 9 QB. All my guys will boost so I think we should be in good shape.

I was looking over the rest of the league and I only see one team comparable in talent

Yeah, what do you think about renaming the team to:

Lost City Idols
with this logo:

That's pretty good :)

So according to the site, they are going to put in some xp penalties for having a player too high for the median level of the league they play in. I have to say this strikes me as a good idea to prevent team stacking, though I wish they would also make money worth something, which would go a long way to getting rid of the same problem.

W. Brown also led his league in PR avg last year at 20.4:)

Yeah, I think this is a great idea. They'll phase it in like the chemistry, so it won't mean much this season. But, if over the next 2 seasons, suddenly there's an onus on keeping the levels somewhat normalized it would do a lot for normal players. I also like the idea of level caps for the really low leagues. It allows non flex point guys to play and have fun.

I wonder if having certain stadium/cash requirements to get higher level guys isn't a bad idea. That way, the pro and AAA leagues would have bigger stadiums/cash to start. Then, combine that with higher minimums for 20+ players would keep the new BBB league from signing 6 level 22 guys.

Yeah, I have our starting CB and SS on returns right now. I'm just a little worried about wasting the energy of two of our top defensive guys on returns. I'd rather use Bug and my guy once they boost to save our starting D. That said, you will probably start as KR this season because you have so much speed.

OK. I have a Level 18 QB. I was on Ben's team until he sold it, and the owner is willing to work on a trade. Who is interested?

We just got a level 12 guy who's active and I want to rotate him with Mustang's guy. So, I think we're set at QB. Your QB looks like a real nice build, though.
