What, you wanted to continue your sweet streak of never winning championships with those dots? Good choice imo.

Congrats. You won some tournament nobody wanted to play in. Good job. I'm guessing the only reason you had to play semi-pro teams was you couldn't get enough other teams to sign up, and if you are done with the tourney by now, I'm guess it was a 4 team bracket. Congrats again.


yea no one wanted to play... thats why these teams signed up and so did others..

LoDD
Richey
Bogota
Cybertron

it was also done by EL



LoDD didn't really want in on the combine tourney, just asked for an invite to the forum to feel it out. Then got angry emails from whoever was running it that we had been entered despite never really signing up. We had already accepted a scrim offer from Cybertron and just used that as our tournament game. We shit the bed in that scrim and were one and done but I saw no good teams in that tourney tbh.

But congrats on winning an 8 man field. And congrats in advance on your 3rd place finish in the real tournament and the TOC in advance.

i agree that ignoring teams that dont recruit you is a legit reason not to join them. When i have a FA i normally factor that in to about 80% importance on my decision to sign with a team. I have also decided that I will no longer sign dots on teams that dont make contract offers to the FA dots.

That's crazy talk, as I only sign with teams that don't recruit me. It's more fun that way.

Hehe

Well for instance LoDD needs an elusive HB receiver which I have one he could sign right now. http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=2147984 . Would be his best HB. But then I decided I would rather have him on a D league team then do that.

Some people never have problems signing dots. You know that Ubasstards just as much as I do.

Yeah, recruiting used to suck. I don't think people actually do that nowadays. Maybe the Laos dudes still do that, but they are the hardest working group of agents in GLB.

Is truth. I have had many agents volunteer dots for LoDD in the past few seasons. Recruiting is a breeze as long as you are winning.

Could have used Kotoll's o-line dots this season but he folded up shop too quickly last season and dispersed them We ended up getting dots with better EL with an agent who is far less cancerous so I feel like we won the sweepstakes there. At least his dots got a gold trophy in the combine tourney that no one cared about.

I really want Sal Basss to bring his receiving HB back to LoDD next season, was so much better than the guy we have now and he had much better production on our squad last season than he has had on AA. Hopefully I can talk him in to it.

No thanks. We already have two much better HBs. Nice third place trophies though.

Well they are trying which I think is obvious. And I felt they had the most need with at least some talent at the OC/DC positions. Your team, Ubasstards, and RNG fall more into the just passing time until Pros so I didn't bother checking need on those two teams. I pretty much approached Combine just as much as they tried to recruit me. It was the other 25-30 teams that got all pissy because I ignored their PMs or just signed my guys to my own cpu team.

But it will be interesting how they do this season. I actually watched the LoDD vs Titans game and wasn't very impressed but shit happens. And all that really matters is that both Titans and Laos will be in the playoffs. Will they step up ? Honestly I have no idea.

As for LoDD they have been impressive. 7-0 . 6-1 in ranked scrims. But this to me is the first season that I think they really have been tested. I mean last season the Pitbullz went 13-3 in the same division and they are not one of the stronger teams. Hell go back to season 20 to season 24 and the Pitbullz were 1-5 against Pàràgònàl ƒòRçè and I closed down PF for not being competitive. LoDD has been surrounded by alot of weak teams for seasons. But this season gets rid of all those beliefs... at least to me.

For seasons I have said unbalanced builds will make teams struggle. But with the new training/leveling system we all now find ourselves with balanced builds at this point. This is not the time to lose and struggle because to me that is a major tell on your team.

Sorry I didn't run him as much as those two. But I do know numbers ....

Tupac Cat - 946 rushes his total career. (7 season not including this one)

You ran Lt. Reginald Barclay that much in 3 years (859). Same with Abe Blinkon (3 years = 912)

Average per run ?

Barclay - 6.2
Blinkon - 9.6
Cat - 9.9

And Tupac Cat catches while your other two haven't done much there.

So uhh yah. Not sure who you are trying to fool but those two are not getting drafted ahead of Cat

That crappy dot has spent half his life slumming in regular and competitive leagues because his OC wasn't good enough to keep him in Elite. Of course he has better average per run, he was involved in blowouts every other game.

Compare their playoff stats even discounting the laughable competition and you quickly see who is the real deal and who is the pretender.

Mer have you even looked at your past opponents and where they are? Or the fact that the bottom of your division is in fact your old division? PF spent most of its in elite #1 until its last season.

The good teams in Elite #1 have beaten us as often as we have beaten them over the past 4 seasons in scrims and tourney games. The Steel Rain, Richey, BSS, Bogota, RNG have always given us good games but we have given as good as we got. That is a short list tbh, and Paragonal was never on it. We never lost to that crap team and most of the teams I listed put horrific whippings on them too.

Paragonal would have lost to most of the teams in Elite #2 the same way they did in Elite #1. As was born out when you guys lost to teams that demoted from Elite #2 like Fat Jaws in your epic failure season in competitive.
