Hey everyone,
I figured I would fill the league in on what really happened with the 'Topes (it's a boring night). I owned the team from season 2 until the end of season 4. I brought on Kevindurant35 and Skinzfan as my main GMs. They did a fantastic job. In season two we signed a great young CB, Perfect Boobs, owned by Florida__Boi08. After season 4 I received a PM from Skinzfan saying that due to personal issues, he wouldn't be able to be my GM anymore. Skinz and I went together like PB & J. I was already watching and re-watching gameplays. I was working hard on the offense, trying to analyze every play. I was putting in WAY too much time. I decided without Skinz, I should just sell the team. I offered the ownership position to anyone on my squad. Florida_Boi stepped up and the team rallied around him, so I sold the team to him. The first week or two, there were gameplans, then the forum slowly died. He was unreachable, and often wouldn't answer PMs. I re-negotiated a few of my players so they would have better equipment, and lost my renegotiate ability. It was more of a glorified GM position, I had no abilities. I eventually told Florida that I would be leaving the team in the offseason, so I had my GM position stripped. He eventually gave it back to me so I could help renegotiate contracts so they could afford equipment. I renegotiated my LB's contract so it would end on day 40, and posted that I would be joining the Rapid City Sioux and everyone was welcome to join. Skinzfan also posted saying he was leaving. We were both banned from the forums and stripped of our GM abilities without even a PM. I made promises to these players and Florida claimed that he would run the team the same way. Now my former players are stuck on the 'Topes with an ownership that doesn't gameplan, and just attempts to sign the highest leveled players available. He flat out tells players that they can't get released this offseason. No one probably cares, but I did want to give a reason why the 'Topes weren't as good as their potential.
Best Regards,
Winger

Also, I forgot to add that he offered three times to buy my account from me. That's when I started going against him and had my GM abilities taken the first time.

It's a shame with all of that potential on the team.

It is to bad, I would have liked to see what the Topes could have done with a full game plan.

Best of luck to you Winger and the rest of the Topes.

Bigchief is a great agent! He was with me from day 1. Built a kicker for the team and everything. I wish I had been able to get him out. Unfortunately, my powers were stripped before I could do it.

Oh I agree Minnsooner, but the last thing I wanted to do was have another gutted team in BBB #5. I let the team choose, and they stated they wanted him. He let them down.
