That really isn't the point. And Lincoln is a top team, If not the Top.

The question currently being discussed is why Lincoln selected 3 RB's who have done nothing in their careers. Where as toons who have accomplished plenty, are ignored.

To me that says a few things. The first thing is that Lincoln knows what they are doing.

The second is that the are not recruiting players based on their stats.

And that is where I have a problem.

If stats mean nothing going into the WL, then why do we bother with lower level leagues. If the results of our actions mean nothing compared to our last 3 seasons, then why do we have teams lower than 60? For WL its all about our stats when toons hit the peak.

So why do we bother? The 3 top HB's in the WL did nothing to get stats along the way.

Maybe this will all get fixed with the new changes to slow building. I don't know.

But to have the 3 HB's on the top WL team accomplish nothing on the way there? That is just silly.


i cant speak for the other 2 HB's....but bear's HB spent several seasons just mentoring because he really doesnt care all that much about stats...hes mostly concerned with being good in the pros and the WL. Not only that...but hes a great agent and doesn't even care about the amount of carries i give him...it could be 20+ or it could be 0 for the day...he really doesnt care. That is how he has always been with his dudes. At the same time...he has one of the best builds ive seen for someone who didn't cap build at all.

I'm sending blind contract offers to FA's in the marketplace based on the green interest bar now. I mean ... if the bar has green that means something, right?

Anyone have a script for that?

i sent a blind offer to your HB because i think he could put up more yards than Crypts HB in a lolAA league.

Means they have a really shitty build and a lot of people are leaving comments.

If you want an honest assessment of why you were rejected then open his build and prepare to be critiqued.


See here is where I have a problem.

My HB was not rejected because his stats were bad. In fact, they were better than all 3 of the signed HB's combined.

He was rejected because his "Skills" were not high enough. And when is production was measured against any of the 3 backs they have, it not only eclipsed them, it obliterated them.

Maybe this is a legacy issue. Maybe it is season 3-4 people figuring out how it works at the highest level. Maybe it gets corrected with changes in the game, but I still find it strange that WL teams are looking for skill only players.



I'm sorry, but how else do you want it to work? I've been on Lincoln for a long time, and we're not anti-SA lol. Our players have plenty of SAs.

HOWEVER

Are the sim rolls based on stats? No. They're based on attributes. With the disparity in some leagues, stats are almost pointless. Not saying your HB sucks, but BUILDS are what win games, not stats from previous seasons, and that's all it really comes down to.

And that is why he is a bugs mod and you aren't anymore.
