Well this freaking sucks on so many levels.

It's really sad to see someone who obviously cares a great deal about this game calls it quits under these kind of conditions. Best of luck RJ.

I'd have to agree 100% with that, as well...I honestly see this as a loss for GLB. As a whole, GLB is divided mostly into 2 large groups: The Bort Can Do No Wrongs & The Bort Can Do No Rights. I always saw RJ as one of the much, much smaller group located in the middle. That group has no desire to bash the shit out of everything Bort does, but also isn't afraid to point out the flaws in GLB and desperately wants the game to improve. They also won't sit there and apologize for every mistake Bort makes, but do give credit when credit is due. In other words, that group wants to try to help improve the game and has the guts to try suggesting improvement when they can, always at the risk of having both of the infinitely larger groups bash the holy hell out of them for trying.

IMO, we lost one of the good guys today


This is a good post. I don't agree with everything rj thought, but I respected that he cared and thought and worked for it.

Sucks imo

GLB sucks due to the changes in the past 2-3 seasons. I don't blame you from your choice.

Enjoy real life. I'm sure you won't miss this once you stop playing it.

Damnit, RJ, I'm sorry to see you go. Not because of the Gut job. Frankly, never cared much either way about them, but because I always liked and respected you and the Horns. For what it's worth though, as evident by my post in that thread, I thought the 'bitching and whining' comment was out of line myself.

I know that I'm reputed for long speeches, I will try to keep this one shorter.

-I was told recently by a prominent agent and tester whom I respected that my efforts to get Bort to see reason and to help turn this game into a success are little more than 'bitching and whining'. He suggested that if I hate the game so much, why not just quit? Well, I'm going to take him up on that.

-Season 9 has shown me that GLB is beyond repair. It is administered by a man who is in over his head, refuses to admit his mistakes, and will not see reason. That's a shame, because the idea behind GLB is an amazing one, and it's almost criminal that it has been so poorly executed. GLB will not ever be a fair, balanced, or realistic game at it's present rate.

-As soon as I make this post, I will be selling the team. There are *fantastic* agents available on Spicewood, and every single one of them has a great build. In fact, those of you who sign players off of this team will realize just why I am so frustrated with GLB. Neither my quarterback nor any of my other players will be available for recruitment. I am never logging into GLB again, so the morons among you feel free to flame away, but it will fall on deaf ears.

-I apologize for leaving a gutted team in USA Pro - but honestly, what does it matter? Statistics are meaningless already. I would say that at least doing this would open the MVP race up again, but apparently even the method for calculating THAT is whacky in some fashion because despite having 2300 yards and 29 touchdowns through 3 games, Hugh is now only in second place.

-Good luck to all of you who choose to stick with GLB, and to all of you dedicated to it's continued improvement. I personally may believe you are fighting a losing battle with an obstinate and clueless programmer, but I do hope you succeed and one day will make GLB into a game worthy of it's brilliant concept.


Don't tell that to the braggarts and the people boosting already dead players keeping the Big Guy in the dark........lmao

This is not a game for people with integrity tbh , it's full of exploits(yes all games have them) , cheaters(muti's abound) , bad game mechanics and the only reason most won't leave is because of the cash left on the table. This game needs a restart but that will fall on deaf ears like all the great suggestions to keep the money flowing that go unheard/unseen.

This is a great game and I begrudge no one who quits because honestly I think they're smarter than most , me i'll cut and burn till the flex is gone or the game restarts. One day the dream will unfold hopefully.
