I was wondering who everyone thought was the most improved team this offseason. I haven't really looked around the league too much, but I think it has to be the Sunnyvale Trailer Park Samsquamch's (formerly known as the Hutt Valley Spartans). We got a new and better owner. We also got a chemistry grace period. Chemistry is what killed us last season. We were a seven seed in the playoffs last season, and we lost our first round game in a blowout. But this offseason we have picked up 3 level 15 CBs, a level 13 WR, a level 14 LB, a level 16 FB, a level 12 C, a level 12 LB, a level 18 DE, a level 16 guard, a level 16 DT, a level 11 RB, and a level 15 OT. AND while we did all of this, our chemistry has gone UP, because of a new owner and a chemistry grace period. I really think we can make a championship run next season.

Has anyone out there improved more than us?

EDIT: We've just picked up a level 18 FS.
another edit: signed a level 18 HB, a level 16 WR, and a level 16 Kicker.

The Vikings picked up a few 20+, and a bunch of 18s, 19s... but chemistry did take quite a hit.

I brought my NT and FS over to the Vikings, should be an interesting defense

Jordan and I brought over 4 of the 20's in the starting line up together. I'm looking forward to lighting it up in the secondary. Your WR's better watch out on those slant routes.

Moving down in leagues must have been real challenging for you guys.

I'm glad to see a lot of you went out and completely changed the faces of your teams.

still a little sour about us knocking you out of the playoffs?

Actually we didnt change much at all, the only reason we have so many new additions was because a LOT of my team from last season got a team of their own (1024 teams released).I never made unnecessary cuts, just filled in the holes.Thanks though

plus Exar0s signed alot of players owned by guys who already had a player on our team so we kept the owners core

as for the chemistry we really didn't loose that much compared to the new talent we got on both sides of the ball......i see some teams down to the 20's in chemistry and only added like lvls 16 and 17

Of our new players (just a very quick look shows about 13 new signees right now), about half of them are players of current Vikings who brought their players here from another team, and the rest as Exar0s said are to fill holes of those who left. I don't think anyone has been cut from this team as long as they're active owners and fun guys (pretty much our entire team)

The level gap is going to make a big difference for one season tops. The important thing is making sure you have the right kind of agents owning your players, particularly your starters. Seems like the Vikings are taking steps to that end, hats off to them for that.

Level gaps aren't really all that big of a deal either. Last season in Africa AA#4, we had a team that out leveled everyone by 4-5 levels at the beginning of the season and damn near everyone beat them anyways. Build quality and tactics are much more important.

Speaking of chemistry, the owner of the Niagra Falls Sundowners runs his team like an idiot and has managed to murder his whole team's chemistry in a matter of days. Anyone notice? You guys should be thrilled that they are going to blow this year.

Who the hell are you? I may not have a player on a team or even coach a team for any matter but there is no need for you here because at least I did something for this league.
