I blame the Poison and Worst team threads.

That LV and EZ game should be fun to watch. Clearly the best two teams in the conference right now. Although I'd really like to see Las Vegas add some other agents to their team even if they keep starting all the same players. It's just cheapens the experience to play someone knowing it's just one guy sitting there controlling 44 players. It just goes against the nature of the game, even if it isn't cheating by any means.

Crazy game for LV. I can't figure out how they get it done. He must have something figured out. Crimson has the East locked up unless they get hugely unlucky in the playoffs, and it should be interesting seeing how they do against the West. I think EZ and LV are near locks for the title game for the West, can EZ avenge their loss?

I think it's a matter of player spec is equal to, if not more important than, strategy. He has control of every training, level up, and equipment point. That makes a huge difference. He doesn't have to deal with people not paying attention to good advice and spreading equipment points across 6 attributes and then complaining about how much it costs to fix it, or people (like myself) who by lvl 10 had half of their allotted SP in the SA tree. It's literally taken me 10 levels to turn my DE around and I still have about 4 more levels before he'll be productive again. Bad builds can really hurt your team, but if you slow build 40+ players you're going to do really well.

It's even more amazing that they were 1-15 last year too.

He slow built them for a season. You have to give the guy credit. He had a plan and didn't deviate from it even though he was losing.

Yeah no kidding someone figured something out along the way.

I wish they would just limit it to like 10 players by 1 agent per team. People don't understand how big of an advantage it is to own every player on your team. It feels like cheating to me, hell I got 3 players on my team and I feel bad about that. Of course I love managing my own team and dealing with the players. It's a pain in the ass but I enjoy it.

I have 14 of my own players. I did that when I started just in case I was unable to find truly loyal and dedicated players. I signed a kicker and ended up retiring my own kicker at the beginning of Season 2. Remember Butch Biggs? I was willing to retire my own players if needed but never had to. Now I've got a great group of folks who appear to be dedicated to busting balls the Ballbuster way. As long as we improve every season, that's all that matters.

Someone made a good post, and teams that have either 1) A single agent for all his players, or 2) A limited few number of people with all their players, or 3) Coming from an outside source all together - all have a huge advantage. It's like herding cats a lot of times.

We have two conferences in one league, and I did say conference. PinTBC is my main man back to when I GM'd an offense in Season 1 so I love the Crimson, but I wouldn't say clearly. There are 4 teams that will give them a run for their money. The west is not weak at all.
