Yeah, I like the suggestion to "kill" rookie and do at least another season in vet.

Really, you don't need to kill rookie though, you just need to start dots off with a lot more SP and take those extra SP out of later seasons or drop a season.

This is where I am too. I see it from the perspective of Rookie ball being so bad a gateway to the game. Nobody comes in wanting to go through an entire month of players tripping over themselves and letting passes hit em in the face when wide open. If you've been here a bit you just game it a bit usually knowing that certain plays do well with underdeveloped players. But if you just started out, I see it as a horrible entry to the game.

Wow. Despite their poor chemistry (sorry, couldn't resist), Whoville (and their mostly CPU roster) knocked off the upstart Hookers. I'm not sure if this is a case of excellent playcalling by Whoville, weird RNG (3 turnovers by Atlantic City), or an indictment of rookie ball in GLB2.



Hookers will think twice about spamming 3 WR rollout/toss strong from now on.

At least make QBs walk like brainless paraplegics in QB runs, maybe needing a huge ammount of carrying awareness/physical skills to properly run, or maybe slide as soon as a defender gets close to him.

Skeletor slides for nobody!

Best part of rookie is team building. The rest is sadness.

This might be the biggest issue in the game right now concerning retaining new players.

Run Stuffers just moved into top 10.

You put up a good fight for most of the game, Erie.

Qb Runs were neutralized by both Who and Hookers today. I don't think either team called ZEB, Who couldn't due to tag conflicts and Hookers didn't because it would have been a bad idea. TE passes are terrible right now. We had one huge play to a TE due to a scouted play that actually did not bounce of the back of his helmet, and he didn't collapse in a heap either.

Hookers were on the bad end of RNG giving Who a short field twice. Who capitalized on one of them. Hookers could have easily won 3-0, but it didn't work that way.

It was actually a good game in terms of play-calling and schemes which is what makes this game fun.

Ouch...that drop hurt!

Good game.

Rookie is good for newbies to learn the quality plays in the game and how to work the tactics calender. It gets a bit more c9mplicated beyond the early stages. Sure ito can also hinder people from continuing because of how they lose but it's truly a coordinating game at this stage.

Black Mamba League could get interesting. 4 of the top 11 in rookie are on a collision course to meet in the playoffs if this trend keeps up. Big games today in Black Mamba for first place.

In some hours one team will be chosen to lose a game, who will be the lucky one?
