Man, I'm glad I finally got the contract offers from the Meatballs.
FREE AGENCY BLOWS!
Having your inbox and your alerts flooded in a span of an hour blows hard. And looking through the messages, it's ridiculous how pathetic some of these sales pitches are. I'm actually offended by some of the messages I got that were trying to get me to join their team.
"We'd love to have Sebastian Jackson on our team creating separation and blowing by defenders..."
REALLY? What makes you think that Sebastian Jackson is the type of receiver that can do that? Do these teams do any research at ALL? Or do they just look at his level and ASSUME that he's faster and a better fake artist than the competition?
"I'd love to have your WR creating separation, finding seams in the defense, and streaming down the sidelines for the <team name removed>"
I guess they weren't the only ones who feel like he's so much more than he really is.
"We'd definitely want to run Jackson up the seam..."
I wasn't aware teams had the ability to send specific receivers on specific routes. But if you could, please send him on the same route every time.
"We will offer you max cash, max salary, and a promotion."
Great, just what I was looking for... a team willing to sacrifice their entire future just to secure a high level player. Throw in 3 1st round draft picks and it's a deal. And what is this about a promotion? I didn't realize I had a low rank.
"You will be getting at least 40 plays a game which should get you your 100XP"
It's nice to see a team at least show that they have SOME SORT of knowledge about how players earn XP after level 29, but I'm pretty sure I only really need 1 play in order to get my minimum 100XP.
Anybody else get any gems from other teams?
