Are these things jacked up or what? They make no sense whatsoever.

I dont know what you mean. My DE got +1 agility, +1 strength +1 First Step. I understand it not making sense in the fact that all 3 of the guys on the Cranes that received deals from last season were all backups, my DE(#3 DE), buddies CB(#4 CB) and our 3rd string QB...

We had two DE's with over 30 sacks last season and neither of them got deals. I had like 2 sacks and I got one...

Its just a lottery system. The higher your fame, the more chanes you get to be picked for an endorsement. If you're playing at a level higher than the league recommendation, then your chances are decreased for being picked for the endorsement.

We have back-ups with 10 tkls last year getting endorsement deals ... along with guys that aren't even in the league this year ... as well as last year.

That's exactly what I mean. I'm sure the rewards are great ... but they all went to the wrong players.

Yeah, it's a good idea, but executed poorly. If anything, endorsement deals should go to the top performers of LAST season. People who actually earned endorsements.

The Current got 11 out of the 16 available in BBB 8 from last season.

Well if thats the case then my team should have received more than 3 considering we had a bunch of people near the top of their respective lists. Its just a lottery system where each 1 fame = a ticket and then a random drawing.

What they should do is put the top 3 players from each category into a drawing for the equipment for the league endorsements and then do a team endorsement for any team in the playoffs that isnt quite as good but still useful, ideally let the owner choose the recipient.

Yeah i agree with Dirk on this one. Endorsements should be given to those who deserve it not just randomly given out.

There are a bunch of things i would change about it.

1. No one playing on a gutted team would get one
2. No player on a team getting relegated would get one.
3. No player switching teams mid season should get one.
4. Only players who played in that league the year before are eligible. Players on teams that get promoted are the only exception.
5. If you are 5 levels above or 5 levels below the league expected levels you dont get one.

I would then sort the players and create a pool of eligible players off this list. Then add a value to each stat that a player can get(make the point values different for each position, ie sacks are worth more to a DE then a CB but an Int is worth more to the CB then the DE).

I would then make a list of the top 10 players with points at each position and then give them a weight according to where they fell in the points lists (10to the highest points value 9 to the second highest, and so on). Fame could also play a role in assigning weight. Then i would have them randomly chosen like the NBA draft does, with the players with the highest weight having the best chance of winning.

This sounds like a good idea. But, I can almost hear Bort groaning at the thought of the programming that would go into this to get it installed.

Interesting thing about this.. a player from LXA actually agrees with you guys.... all except for #5... If a player is better, HE'S BETTER.. doesn't matter the level... hence the Caps, as a level 40 player can't go in lower level capped league....
