People are going to get upset when they feel they did things the right way and think another team brought in a team of "ringers". The fact remains you are not the only team to have recruited some high level talent. your team((especially AZ)) has been very vocal about how good you guys are...that is automatically going to put a bulls eye on your entire team.
heck even I can't wait until the wasps bulls and you guys start playing each other. should make for some excellent games.
Now *I* feel like i should clarify
I agree with Saerin, i got nothing against you or your team Bolt. I dont blame you for wanting to bring in the highest level talent you could find. You wont hear me dogging the Bulls or Wasps either. Nothing you guys have done is against the rules. Do i agree with it and the system that's in place? No, of course not, but that's neither here nor there.
I just think it's idiotic to not have some sort of cap on a AA league when it's just too damn easy for trophy whores to bring all their highest level guys to these leagues, when Pro teams (otehr than the top pro teams) have a hard time fielding fully competent rosters. I have a level 43 DE playing AAA ball because he was the best the team could find at the time. If that doesnt tell you something is wrong with the system, then i dont know what will convince anyone.
Bolt, youve never been on here bragging about your team etc, and neither has Jeremy or trazer (and frankly, with the players you have, you really *shouldnt* be). If you guys cant win with that much ringer talent, then there's something wrong. I realize AZ is probably 13 or 14 or something just by the way he runs his mouth (keyboard), so i think that's rubbed a lot of people (not just me) the wrong way. Unfortunately, that comes down on your team as well. Anyone that's known me for some time on here knows im as good a sport as anyone. I have full respect for teams that win games within the spirit of the game (ie, no cheese plays run over and over, etc). You guys have a great team, but i stand by my initial opinion that it's a AAA roster (with some pro guys mixed in). Not dogging you at all, just the system. To give Bort credit where it's due though, at least theyre fixing the lower leagues. But with players hitting 60+ all around GLB now, you have to have SOME distinction between level 45 leagues and level 60 leagues, otherwise youre just asking for more and more gut jobs by teams that cant compete at the level theyre at. That's just no fun for anyone. It's like allowing Division I college athletes to play in high school leagues. I hope they fix this in the future, but im not holding my breath.
