Before the season, all the talk was that the Catsharks couldn't compete because our LB were too underleveled, our WR were too underleveled, our CB were too underleveled. Now we win three games in a row and everyone is saying it's all because of our one high-leveled player. The fact is, you guys put too much stock in player levels.

You know who hasn't complained? Our fellow teams from BBB 5 last year. That's because they saw us kick the $#!+ out of the conference with our guys who were oftentimes 3-4 levels below the rest of the league. We did it with great builds, active agents, and solid tactics. Did we add some high-leveled players this year to compete in an uncapped league? What else were we supposed to do?

Lastly, I'm not going to apologize for adding Michael B. In our inaugural season, I signed a level 4 FS to back up both S spots and play special teams (and he has done great at both). Because Scrap, his agent, liked the team and what we were doing, he asked if I wanted his HB when we moved to an uncapped league. Michael B's presence and role is a direct result of what we've been doing in Prince Rupert, not an exception to it. Recruit great agents and treat them right, and maybe their higher-level players will sign with you when they become FAs.

In conclusion, stop whining and beat us. Northern didn't complain about our HB when they beat the piss out of us week 1. Seriously, if you guys don't stop bitching and moaning I'm going to ask iMan to be even more obnoxious than he already is.

Best wishes,
Dave

Actually, when I chose to come to this team, I came from another A league with the knowledge that I would be joining a team that was going to an A league. The other A league I was in had players of my level or better consistently. I expected that it would be the same way with this league. I didn't exactly light it up in the last league. Granted, my YPC was good, but I didn't get many carries. I figured more carries would bring my average down, as it indeed did.

Look closely at the games. The Catsharks are great at blocking, and my guy is just making the best of it. There was a play in the last game where the TE blocked two guys. The TE is level a 35, and he blocked a level 41 Safety, and a level 31 linebacker. Michael B went untouched.


Look at the first game stats. He can be stopped. Look at the league stats. He isn't the best. As I said, it is a team effort.

He disappears for tough games though 10 rushes for 22 yds. Glad he's here though.

Can't understand why they are complaining about 1 lvl.44 player. Just look at this team : http://goallineblitz.com/game/team.pl?team_id=5903

This team went 0-16 last season
The team probably doesn't have enough stadium to keep paying its roster.
The have 42 total players earning 200k a piece. They only have 475k in the bank.

Hell, I am getting ready to start sending offers to these players.

GREAT EXAMPLE!

Twin Peaks played really really good but then again we didn't have our offense or defense installed yet but they did good regardless.

IMO, a good back will make plays on his own with speed, agility, strength and vision and at these levels receiving with YAC's being high seeing how he'd break tackles by the weaker DB's.

You sound like a broken record, welcome to A league where that's the whole idea, create mismatches with higher level guys vs lower level guys not to mention serious depth. It seems to me that you miss the BBB capped leagues. lol
