Why is there a Level 51 CB in our league?

It seems like it's not a battle of tactics but rather just a battle of recruiting. The teams that are dominating in our league usually have a lot of super-high level players. I'm not whining because everyone could've recruited high-level players equally, but I just think that it's messed up.

Are you really putting down a team for being a good recruiter? What's so wrong with a team going for a high level player, the point of the game is to win, not do what other people think is fair.

No he's got a point, the BBB league is suppose to be 20's- like 38's but sometimes teams with high level players who drop from the A go into a BBB league and dominate. It's ridiculous there way to many stacked teams in BBB leagues

No, I'm not saying that they don't deserve it. They are winning and they deserve it since they recruited the best. However, I don't think it's good for the game in general. It's sad but I have the most fun in d-leagues because each game isn't a foregone conclusion.

when I started in this league (season 5) there were 6 teams with an average player level of 40+ in the west division alone, I mean it still needs improving but it is better than I have ever seen it

You can't blame teams for good recruiting, only person to blame is Bort. He needs to do a mass reorganization of the leagues of the teams average level, and do leagues like that, after 8 seasons leagues are bound to get a bad good/bad team ratio.

When a high lvl. player comes to BBB he takes a stat hit also and a pretty good one. Like my WR he has a ton of drops and also is slower than he was in A7 so it can be bad also b/c you dont know what kind of performance he will have. If you dont have those kind of players what happens when you get to A you get your but kicked and then you get dropped back to BBB. In all actuallity lvls really dont mean anything if you have a 51cb with a bad build then a 38 wr could take is lunch money and 300 yds.

the real question is would you be complaining if that level 51 player was on your team?

didnt think so.

I'd certainly like that level 50+ CB on my team.

Ronnie has a good point. This guy used to play in a Pro League and now he's in the BBB leagues?

This was his old team until last year:

So to go from the Pro Leagues to the BBB's is kind of like going from Varsity to Freshman "B."

Good recruiting or not, why would you ever want to drop down that far if you were this guy? Probably the same type of person who likes to play pickup basketball games with 5th graders so he can shoot over them and get every rebound.

It doesnt matter, because the skyforce will dominate anyway.

Let me know when you are finally able to connect the dots.

Yeah, I'm certainly not blaming them. If the team I DC for could have gotten a L51 player in our league, I would've done it. I'm just pointing it out for discussion.

I probably wouldn't complain about him because then he'd be a teammate, but the point still remains. What's the point of playing something where you can predict the outcome of nearly all your games? It's becoming a game of recruiting when I think it should also involve tactics, builds, and even luck.

What we need is a USA "C" league. That would keep the higher-leveled players separated from the slow-builds and worse-off teams. I'm sure it's hard work, but this would be the best thing added to the game and would keep a ton of people's interest. It would be much better than these endorsements that rotate from player to player during the season and don't add up to a hill of beans anyway.

I'll go ahead and +1 this.
