I feel for ya though. My son took over an Oceania Pro League team that was gutted in the off-season. It's hard as hell playing in a Pro League and having to re-build from scratch.
One of the guys on my teams, took over the Utopian Legend.
I don't know if any of you were following that little mellow drama last season, but it was a USA Pro team that apparently discovered/exposed some cheating by Tim Harper...and all hell broke lose in the Pro League. When nothing was done to punish Harper, the entire team quit. The owner released all of the players, and they instantly retired them all. Bort countered by permanently banning everybody from the Legend from GLB, but the damage was done...word filtered out that their did appear to be some favoritism towards the Alpha Tester teams. It was a mess and there was a lot of finger pointing and quite a few people left the game...and it was probably one of the main reasons the new "Sportsmanship" rules are getting coded in.
Anyway, the team instantly was filled with CPU players and put up for sale. One of my guys was next on the list and couldn't believe the "luck" of being able to buy a Pro team, and jumped at it, not knowing the history of what he just got himself into. Now, he's getting slaughtered as he has to face THE highest leveled players in this game with CPU's and whatever meager FA's he can find. It ain't purdy.
Man that's crazy. If the Beef think they've got it tough, imagine having to play the New England Patriots every game. And the ass kicking won't stop there...they'll get beat down in several leagues on the way down.
ouch o_O
