Hey guys. I'm the punter on Sacramento. Needless to say, I punt a lot.

As you know, we are on our 3rd owner in a short period of time, and he has not logged on since receiving the team. Eventually, the team will go to another owner, who has a decent chance of being another "weak" owner.

I wondered if I could help. I currently own a team that had lost 33 straight and was $1 million in debt when I took it over. We finished 3rd place a year later, and are rated highly to compete for it all this year. Additionally, we have a great stadium (all seats bought and future upgrades paid for), $10 million in the Equipment fund for the guys, and cash in the bank with many seats left to sell this year.

I've played in US Pro before with my Center on Kailua and my DT in San Antonio. Hopefully, those owners can vouch for me.

I know that giving a 2nd team to an owner is not happening currently, and that there is a standard protocol to how this should happen. However, for US Pro, hasn't there been enough folly with the Sabercats?

Would it be possible to have the team transfered to me?

I'm sure there are many deserving owners out there, many better than me. However, I do have a player on the team and can work diligently at avoiding relegation and keeping some games competitive.

Thanks for your thoughts, no feelings would be hurt if you strongly disagree.

Im all for it. You seem like a cool guy.

But ultimately it is up to Bort and DD and I don't think they would go for this. Never hurts to ask though.

Would probably be the best for Sacramento, but would leave to a ginourmous pain in the butt for Bort and Co. Imagine all the whiners that would come out of the woodwork to complain about perceived special treatment, especially in US Pro.

Yeah, there's a story behind them that I'll share one day...

They won't. They wouldn't give me or Boi teams we GM'ed for four seasons because we already owned one. Hell, I GM'ed that team before I even owned this one.

Both teams are now gutted and worthless, whereas under Boi or I, they would have at least remained intact.

What a great decision that was Support.

Hint: with enough data points, most equations can be solved, regardless of number of variables. Often one equation will hint strongly at patterns of other equations.

Punters are simple and cheap.

If you want to make it happen, then you have to make a choice; Sabercats or Druids.
If it's the Sabercats, then you'll need to arrange things on 3 fronts. With the Sabercats owner, with your existing Druids GM's, and with Support to make the whole thing happen. It's highly unlikely they'll arrange the team transfer until you first transfer away ownership of the Druids.
