I was merely showing that's there's parity outside of BBB this season. Forgive me for thinking that I could provide evidence without public backlash.
It's primarily because whenever people complain about D-Line impotency, someone comes in and goes "HAY GUISE MY LEVEL 10 DE GETS SACKS, EVERYTHING'S OK NOW"
Well I'm a DE playing even competition in a shuffled cap 24 league,
You can stop right there. At those levels, most OT's have just spent in STR/BLK and maybe a little into AGI. By the time you're lvl 40, if things stay the same, you'll be a 200 FP dancing partner.
I disagree. I think that the shuffling of good teams into our league has provided us with stronger competition, especially in the O-Line. I can make the same argument that I don't have enough strength yet, so I should get pancaked more if a block is engaged, but I don't. So there's 2 sides to the argument.
Dude, don't even try to argue that capped leagues provide insight on other leagues. Like I said, my DE who was around level 25 at the start of last season had 66 sacks last season and has 0 this season at level 32 in a decent league. And there is NOT parity in your league so don't try to argue that either.
When did I say that it brought insight to other leagues? All I was saying was that in my 24 cap league, I've gotten x stats so far. That's all. When did I Relate it to Pro leagues? The interaction across the board needs an overhaul, but I don't understand where you're coming from with regard to this 'insight' or whatever.
I fully expect our team to be moved to SA AA next year, and I'll go back to fighting for 1 sack in 16 games. But I've been rebuilding with this team for 2 seasons now and it's finally our time to shine. I was only providing stats though. Sheesh, people draw conclusions from everything nowadays.
So let me get this right, you come into a thread talking about DEs being broken to say that your DE has good stats then you argue about your DE doing it against equal level teams but yet you think you're saying nothing? What's the point of posting then? If it's only to talk about your DE stats, take it to Game Recaps. This is a thread on how to fix DE interaction and why it is not working.
The thread title is 'Anyone having problems with DEs still?' and so I answered the question: not for me. I posted stats to support my claim, and was instantly blasted: 'LOL A LEAGUE GTFO NOOB'. I answered the question again and then provided my opinion that the interaction is still not fully fixed and needs more tweaking, to which you related something that I never even said. The thread may have evolved into talking about why it's not working, but I thought I would just answer the thread title and move on. Sorry I don't share your awesome opinion. Bort is already testing a solution to enhance DE/OT interaction by stunning the OT sometimes, so that should the the end of the thread by your accounts, right? Or do you want to bicker more about my simple post of information and answering of the thread title?
Bickering sounds good to me...you? Well, I apologize if you feel like I have attacked you but like I said, things get a whole lot tougher as your player gets higher level(unless you keep him in a low league). I know about Bort's proposed change but it has not been added yet nor has there been a date set(to my knowledge) where it will be added. It's also hard to be optimistic on this change when many of Bort's OL/DL changes have just made the DL off worse. Hopefully it will work.
I don't like bickering too much lol. I would rather state my opinion and then let the flame wars proceed with other people, like this retard zilla or whatever his name is. I think that these changes will spark new interaction with the DEs, and I know of the tribulations ahead of my player once I reach higher leagues. But I feel like I've already been through a few, being on a rebuilding team and all. It's hard to stay optimistic when you're getting raped by 2 seasons straight

other than that, I think this brief convo is over. I am tired of scrolling down our quote pyramid lol
