Here's the pitch from the Guadalcanal Gunners:
http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=2964We're an Oceania Pro team that recently saw all it's season 1 and 2 builds sail away into retirement. We're retooling the roster by bringing up our second generation boys but we have a few holes to fill to complete the rebuild. Center and a WR are our only definite need for season 14.
We won't be contenders for the crown this season but we won't be blown out of the water either This team is in it for the long haul, it started in season 3 and the GM's and I have plans on keeping it running well through season 25 and beyond. We already have a third and fourth generation in the works and we plan on being competitive at the Pro/WL level indefinitely. We have a fully functioning system from Peewee to Pro and we have GM's that have been actively involved for a long time. All the information/schemes/plans will be explained to you if you decide to join. I've personally GMed teams for the equivalent of 25 seasons, the Guadalcanal Braintrust has the equivalent of 80 or so seasons of experience (though with the moving target of the sim that sometimes doesn't mean much). We're involved, vocal and we rarely have a complaint from players about their time in Guadalcanal.
We always get equipment on our players. It may not be all in one season (depending on cost) but we'll get at least 2-3 pieces a season. I strongly believe that line play (O and D) determines how successful you are, so you'll always be at the top of the list when equipment goes out. I'm personally active with the O-line because of how important they are to our total effort.
If you look at my personal players, they're spread around Oceania Pro. I strongly support the region and believe it has been one of the most enjoyable places to play in GLB. I see no problem bringing a potential rival onboard, I've done it many times before.
Truth in advertising. Season 14 may not be much to look at when it's all over but it will set us up for our future march back to the WL. Even taking the pounding we did last season, our total regular season record is 143-33 (.813) and it's only going to keep getting better as we refine the system.
Thanks for your time and consideration
