Galk-

You need to get Greg Rice off the Cheetahs and back to your team

Clearly a nice team though. I have to look deeper into your roster before I would place you on the list though to be fair.


How many testers do you have on the team?

If you have a nice advanced scouting script too, then maybe top 3 or 4.

idk how many testers. I've never asked but there are definitely some there. (They never tell me stuff though , jerks).

Oh, and Greg Rice isn't very good. You should thank me for keeping him in Canada. My SS is the good one.

I'd say Wolfpack for one of the spots, they're pretty well known for their build strategy. As for another, I'd probably say the Banzai Nites from O-Pro Zeta -- they've dominated that division for awhile, and only just got knocked off this season after a 3 or 4 season streak of winning zeta.


and yet still no nites eh lol

1.) You are on like 10 of the top 30 teams, so a trophy or 2 would be expected.
2.) None of them are YOUR team, which is much harder to do.
3.) If Havoc gave me a GM title en route to another 20-0 season, does that make me a genius?

If you want to prove that you are good, go get another team and see how long it takes you to get a trophy of your own. THEN and only then do you have any room to talk.


Seriously? My team is on par to win a League championship this season unless we choke. And BTW SI, the difference between you having Havoc give you a GM title and me OCing MM and helping them win the West including upsetting MEM is huge. I actually helped them earn it, while you were just there for the ride. It's not too hard to figure out.



You didn't put that team together. They have had the highest leveled players in the game as far as I can remember.

This game has been mostly about levels since the beginning. That is changing more and more each season, but you couldn't OC the Mayans or an underleveled team to win anything.

Since I think you outleveled MEM, I'm not even so sure how much of an upset that was. It was only an upset because of how disappointing that the Marauders had played in the past despite their levels.

A.) nice job with the win
B.) it doesn't prove that you are a better OC than anyone else
C.) has nothing to do with the topic of this thread - how to build a winning franchise and the teams I see as being top franchises in the future


If you want to suggest the Marauders, I think that is a very legit thing to consider. But instead of saying "hey, what about the Marauders?"......you say "SI sucks". Whatever.



1. I would say MEM was right on par in terms of levels last season (and probably this season)
2. We were not good for a long time due to getting a ton of non-boosters/custom and some people who just happened to know nothing about football at the start. Take a lot to make a 4-12 team a 12-4 one in the USA Pro. Including we can't get shit for fan support (still at 21 High Income after a total record of 27-11 the last 2).
3. The rise has only peaked in the last two seasons, which has lead to 4 playoff wins and a Conference Championship.

Also, jrry does deserve some credit. I was terrible with the OAI until mid two seasons ago. We are basically co-OCs since then. The AI setup came from him though, and it took me the rest of that season to start getting a really solid feel for it. The playoffs were a joint effort.

(Not saying I care if we are on this list or not)



So we got to the 2nd round 2 seasons ago, got to the league champ last season...does that mean we win the gold this season?

I'm actually glad that the Rippers aren't on this list. If we got praised by SI, I might have had to take a shower.

HERE IS HOW I WOULD RANK THE TOP FRANCHISES

NOT IN TERMS OF WINS/LOSSES ENTIRELY, BUT HOW THEY ARE RUN, AND THEIR CHANCES OF FUTURE SUCCESS:


...



I'm still deciding on the order and what other 2 teams to add. Maybe 'Nites? SGA? Mayans? Tire Fires? Monarchs? Pimps? Trout? Brisbane Heat? Legionnaires? Pa Dong? Emmaus Green Hornets? Lots of well known and well run teams out there. Whatever number I pick, I'm sure people are going to be upset. I'm quite used to it by now though. I can handle the insults.



It is time.
