Signing with a CPU is a work-around for a system that is broken imo. If Bort & CO is going to cite "no access to a training center" as reason to thwart training based on realistic circumstances then I'd have to say that signing with a team just to utilize their facilities until a better offer comes through is unrealistic.

Being unable to train on days -8 through 0 because a player is not on a team BUT being able to train on days 41-48 as a FA (I'm told you can although my guy was unable to) also makes no sense.

Regardless, moot point. Not enough support. I still stand by my opinion though. It really should be one restriction or the other if pre/post season training is going to be affected by signing status. Either cap it @ 30 and don't allow training or cap it @ 14 and allow training. The former is prolly the best as it would allow for a training restriction to be put in place at all times a player is unsigned as well as allow for a little leeway for those who have a few TP already on D41.

What is the point of having the restriction if there is a way to circumvent it by placing your dot on a CPU? It is extremely unnecessary. Just let dots accumulate TPs (and hell even train) during the offseason.

+1 to suggestion

Quick update on this. I created a player to test out the theory of the TP/Training restrictions being put into place to thwart SB/SSB players. Tomorrow my guy will hit level 2 via rollover. I just signed him with a CPU team and spent my accumulated training points (80 total to date). Combined with %bonus unlocks and multi-training, this is where he sits as a level 1 Run Block Guard (still have 4 tp as well)

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=4279099

So while he was allowed to stockpile 80 TP because the TP cap was lifted for newly created players, someone who has yet to find a team in the off season is capped @ 14? I seriously don't think this is working as intended.
