I guess you don't have faith that Bort will have an epiphany that he would make more $$ with accelerated player building, huh? Until then, it's an untouchable record.
ps: is he missing 10 points of equip?

break block + SA EQ

only cause people are scared of signing on such a low level dot....
and lol if that dot was actually playing his position the first few seasons....
(also gg for the non negative me)

well, they should be scared of signing low level dots these days as they'd have no chance. The game was different back then though. There were no level 72s except those beginning to decline. It was always a mixed bag of level 60+ dots back then, so though he was severely out leveled, it wasn't as bad as it would be today. Not to mention a lot of the dots in the WL back then weren't exactly built that well. He also had double break block% before that was cool, and a decent SA investment at that young of an age. The latter is something you just don't do these days. He was always exceptional before coming to the WL, with a build drastically different from what was normal at the time.
On top of that, he wasn't meant to come to the WL his first season. After going 9-7 in WL S12, Dakar was expecting to head back to APL. We were having a difficult time replacing our LDE, who was arguably the 2nd best in the game the season before. So we thought Ima End would be ok for APL, so we just went and did it. Then we were shocked to find ourselves in the WL still, and pretty much too late to replace him. After two games playing as a level 52 dot in the WL, he had 10 tackles, and more productive than half of the WL LDEs out there. So yah, he was playing his position, and doing it solidly. By the end of his second season he was level 59 or 60 and had a 7 tackle, 3 sack game against MPHD in the 2nd round of the playoffs.
It's a different world now though. You couldn't have that success at a young age any more, you just can't. Which is why i don't think this record will ever be beat unless by someone purposefully sacrificing a roster spot to do so for a STOP or something. But a guy legitimately being productive for 8 seasons likely will never happen again unless the game changes in some major way.

16 more sacks over 8 WL seasons than my LDE had in 3.
yah, Ima was very rarely a superstar, just a productive dot. Jules was a beast in his day.
