Another one bites the dust!!! Sorry guys but I am going to be getting rid of my team in the next couple of days...I have to go away frequently in the next little while and do not have the time or resources to manage a team...It's not fair to my players or to the league to carry on this way and I am just going to cut my losses and try to provide the next owner with a good amount of cash to rebuild and try to compete in this league...this is good news to teams in the west and even worse for the east...it was great playing with all of you for the past couple seasons and I wish you all all of the best...I will keep an eye on this league as we all know that it is one of the most competitive in BBB. All the players on the team are up for grabs and if you can offer them a starting spot then I will consider this league's teams first...keep up the good work guys!!!

Ahh and he sends 3 of his players to EZC!

I guess that explains why he's ignoring my PM and offer.

I wouldn't even want to play in the west, even going undefeated isn't that big of an accomplishment. Neither is any of the stats awards for touchdown or anything else. I'm glad to be in the east where every team is competitive. I would be proud to lead in stats in the east unlike in the west...

You are crazy if you don't think going undefeated in the West is not an accomplishment. Although its easy to get 7 or 8 wins, the next 8 are still pretty hard. EZ is still around. As is Fresno, Minnesota, SNK, etc... If you can beat all 4 of those teams (or if you are one and beat the other 3), that's a pretty big accomplishment.

The Stats are pointless. Although everyone plays the same teams in the conference. It would be better if it were conference awards instead of league awards. With so little in common in schedule, might as well compare stats of USA Pro and our teams.

Apparently I am not doing the right thing...I got a PM from a MOD and he said I have to stop making trades. He said it is not fair to the new owner taking over the team to have no players. I think its more unfair to the players that will now be stuck on a half ass team. Don't you guys agree that it is better to just start over fresh? I have had a couple people contact me already about wanting to take over the team once it had been gutted. I thought that this was the best and fairest way to go about things but apparently not.

Mod's have no power in the game. Don't worry about that. If the owner has lots of cash, he'll be fine.

I've heard of players sticking with the team, only to end up getting stuck with some inbred owner that has the IQ of a turnip and frequently wets themselves. What you need to do, if you haven't already, is offer trades for your players if they're interested. If they're interested in staying on the team, that's cool too. The fairest way is to leave the new owner with some $$$. I wouldn't know because my Ballbusters will never be gutted unless my wife threatens to leave me. I wish you the best!

yeah, you just can't hand out big Bonus's before shipping guys out. That's what pisses the Mod's off. Other than that it's all up to the players, really.
