I am not saying your backups should complain, but simply pointing out that those 2 players could play more then 13 snaps in a game that you led at halftime by 61 points.

Also, I think that your QB would be perfectly fine not playing in the 2nd half until your backup is too tired. No reason for him to take 73% of the snaps in that game.

You obviously do a damn good job with your team. This has nothing to do with your team, players, or how good y'all can be in this league. I didn't even accuse you of running up the score, but I simply pointed out a few things when your GM stated "If people would bother looking at the box score then will find all of our players play equal reps."

When I looked at the boxscore like he said I saw that wasn't the case, and in a game that you were winning by 60+ points at halftime. Just didn't jive for me, but run your team however you want. Like I said you are doing a good job, and I am not trying to start anything. In my original post I wasn't even concerned about your game or your team. It wasn't until GO TEXANS said what he said that drew me to your boxscore. At that point I hadn't looked at it.

I gotcha and I can easily see your point, but you might want to stop and consider that maybe those backups are owned by some of the same people that own our starters.

LMAO....whatever people no one tried to run the score up.


I never said you did, but was pointing out that the boxscore shows that some guys could have had some more PT.

Again, why should your starter play basically 73% of the snaps in that game? The Care Bears are one of the best teams in the league, and when they played a far worse team their QB's were about 50/50 on snaps.

Like I pointed out you guys are still playing your best players when up. I didn't say you were trying to run up the score, but again what is your starting QB doing playing 73% of the snaps in a game that you led at halftime 61-0?



why do you care?? it's none of your business how much time my guys get. i'll say this one more time so you'll understand.....every single player/owner on this team is completely and 100% committed to the exact same game plan. All of us sign off on our responsibilities. I can't help it if it's not the way you want it, but since I've never met you before I really don't think your opinions will weigh into my decision making.

Let me worry about my team, you worry about yours.


You don't even get what I am saying.

I already said do whatever you want, but don't get all up in arms when someone talks about teams running up the score. Especially when you played your starting QB basically 3/4 of a game you won by 100+ points.

You obviously didn't see what I posted originally when I said:

"I didn't look at what the H-Town did, but a lot of these teams are running up the score."

I wasn't even saying your team had done anything until you two started defending yourselves. Notice that I didn't directly address your team until after you two started defending yourselves. Interesting....

Well forgive me for defending my team considering we've been bashed and dumped on ever since we got here....hell, one of your league veterans thought it appropriate to flame us in our own league forum last year and didn't even realize we'd be the team to advance....bet he's scratching his head on that one right now.

A couple of weeks ago someone said we'd be lucky to score 30 in this league because our offensive players were all 14s when we started, and now our name is being mentioned in posts about running up scores. So you can see why we're a little touchy right now.

Now, it's because my QB was a lvl 14 when we started this season, and hasn't been tested against this level of competition, that he plays so much. As we go on we'll make adjustments but for now he'll continue to get the majority of the reps until I've seen what I need to see from him. period.

This is a long season and we have no idea how well we'll do so we're approaching every game the same because we have to. Thanks for clarifying yourself but please understand that this team is way different than others because of the commitment from everyone on board.

I'm through with this subject if you are.

Maybe we have to stop starting backups in these games to keep our points scored up higher than 43.


I didn't look at what the H-Town did, but a lot of these teams are running up the score. I am not saying that this is what they did, but I would think most would use it as an opportunity to build some quality depth instead of running up the score.

Just found it kind of funny that a lot of teams are using these games to pad stats. Sometimes you can't help it because your backups are scoring, but a lot of owners/GM's are at least trying.





The only reason you were mentioned was because the other dude talked about your team. My response was I don't know about H-Town, but thanks for playing. Reading comprehension is an amazing deal.

Again, I said "I didn't look at what the H-Town did, but a lot of these teams are running up the score. I am not saying that this is what they did."

Pretty damn cut and dry.

Not a problem. I think we understand each other. I don't have a problem with your team at all.

It wasn't even directed at you, but I can see why anyone would defend their team/want to defend their team.

Good luck to you the rest of the way.

To CDW40 you are right about the reading comprehension and you did not mention our name first so that makes it my bad.Just seems everyone wants to belittle the new teams and enough is enough.If everyone wants to play ball and talk ball then I'm all for it.We never came here and showed anyone any disrespect nor did we intend to dish anyone.


Anyway like I said my bad and the best of luck to your team this season.

I just scouted out the Gangstaz. Anyone who is giving H-Town a hard time needs to go take a look at the Billy Creech depth chart.

I do it early to mid game day, really depends on whats going on. It takes me 30-45min to do them unless I am forced to use the laptop...then it takes over an hour most of the time...slow ass laptop fails.
