Guys. I am currently on vacation now visitiing my girlfriend. Everyone that knows me knows I would not stoop to the level of cheating or anything to the level some people on here are trying to say. There was a team with team, whether that is their 1st string or not, and we worked out a deal. This again was for positions that I did not have AND not by lack of trying. I am trying to do what I can to field a good time without going against the rules. Again guys for people that know me know that this is not my intentions. Some have the luck of having people on their teams that know a lot of people on GLB, I dont' have that luck. If anyone really has an issue with this. Please PM me and let's talk. Let's not assume I am doing something without knowing. Thanks again guys. I hope this does not become a problem.

I don't see what the huge problem is here. It's very hard to recruit players right now. Even if the players were released and then signed. Who hasn't tried to do that here? I know I've needed a backup mid-season and tried to get a member on my team to see if he could (in example) get his 4th string OT released since I have no desire to make a trade for a player who won't be playing a major role with my team.

And comments like these make me laugh, it's just too funny...

I love it when people gripe about the sim changes. People who tried to learn the system instead of using football smarts are burned now. Go figure that in a beta football game, eventually the creator would try and make the sims turn out as lifelike as possible. Why would a LB need tackling? He wouldn't he only need speed to run down players. Why would a WR need catching? Oh he can just run by everyone. And my favorite. Vision is just plain useless. It's not like Vision (and Confidence) act as Awareness does on Madden. Yep, those 95 Spd, 40 Awr, 60 Cth WRs are great on Madden!

Your right, however there is no guarantee that the developer will make those changes. So you have a choice of building correctly for the way the sim should work, or you try to be competitive with those that are taking advantages of the way the sim actually works. Given the choice, I want to build to suite the sim and be successful rather than build for the real world and be a loser. If we were guaranteed the sim would come around then you have a point, but the sim is no where near realistic and in many ways less realistic. I've neveer seen so many KO returns for TD and 80 plus yard runs in the history of this game or any other. It's crazy.

1 Mark Colombo level 25 OT
2 Fellix Jones level 21 HB
3 Tank Johanson level 23 DT
4 Stephen Bowen level 23 DE
5 Marcus Spear level 23 DE
6 Marcuss Monk level 24 WR
7 Case Casey level 19 QB
8 Mike Alter level 23 DT
9 Junior Pace level 23 OT
10 Thomas Daveys level 20 center

Some of the guys who left the Seattle roster roster this season, the sad thing is that the amount of money you were paid for these guys will not be worth the home playoff you missed out on that I think you would have got.

Exactly, the smarter thing to do, if you wanted to make upgrades is build your fan support up so you can sell the tickets for way more then they are worth and get home playoff games...Then trade the players you dont want in the offseason, this is the complete opposite. You can then still have fan support, still make upgrades and get the most out of your team. The way they are going about it is exactly what the rule prohibits in trading, "tearing down one team to build up another" only reason he can afford to do it is cause he has a team full of his players, he can afford to take a season off cause he dont have to worry about what his players would think

Anyways I PM'd Rodriguez, I have nothing bad to say about him, he is just trying to help his team and he had a tough offseason, I do believe there are better ways to go about it then he did.

Most of those guys I cut and got nothing for them. They were getting only a few plays per game and thus not much xp.

My fan support is already high and I already sell the tickets at 2.25 times expected so thats not the problem.

I have already payed for seven upgrades and have nothing left to build other than the 300 sections which I can't even purchase until the other sections are built.

Again, I did not expect such a back lash as this did not seem under handed at all to me. Anyway, sorry for some of the harsh words early on.
