They don't have to miss a game at all. I told them when we first started this process that if they wanted out ASAP, to send me a PM and I would send them a new contract which would allow me to trade them. Everyone who has done this has been traded or has a trade pending. My kicker choose not to do this yet he still decided to come to this forum to complain......ponderous.

I would understand people being upset if they got nuked for a season or even a half season. However, any HH player who chooses not to be traded out will miss at the most a couple of games.

Either way, HH wants our new slow-build guys to get all of the reps now to get the new process underway since it will take multiple seasons to reach its fruition.


Quick question for you Fruitbat.....where else was I supposed to go with this since I was locked out of the team forum and you nor Frost will respond to PMs that I have sent to you? The one response I did receive said for me to have the team that was interested send a minimum offer but I still havent received that updated contract that was promised if I found someone to make a trade with. Unfortunately the team that I was speaking to does not want the chem hit right now that is caused by making a trade and would prefer it if I was released so they could sign me but apparently since I wasnt able to work out a deal in the 12 hrs between the announcement of the team changing and being locked out of the forum I am just shit out of luck. One other question....if everyone else has already been traded or has a trade pending, why is it going to take another 2 days of me sitting on the bench not earning XP before I can get released?

Seems to me that with a slow building team like this that is going to be getting spanked on a regular basis game in and game out this season you could at least throw me on the kick off return team or punt team.....should be plenty of snaps in those departments to go around and still get all of your level ones plenty of experience.



You had two choices, PM if you wanted a new contract so I could trade you OR hang on for a few days so I could release you. You didn't PM me asking for a new contract. Therefore, you should hang tight for your release.

Everyone else hasn't been traded (or pending). Some people obviously would prefer to be released and they will be shortly.

I think this issue needs several hundred more posts because your kicker missing two games is obviously of paramount importance to all of GLB. This is the very definition of making a mountain out of a molehill.

We could have kept this in the team forum and worked it out that way. And the PM about the new contract is a moot point because as I have explained multiple times the team that I am planning to move to doesn't want the chemistry hit right now that a trade will cause. So why waste time with a new contract if the trade cannot be worked out right now anyway? It still doesnt stop you from offering me a new contract right now that ends on Day 40 of this season does it?

But whatever.....how would you really feel if your players were held out of the lineup on purpose and did not receive any game XP for several games? Be honest now.....

A few games? You have missed 1 game.

Look, in your shoes, I wouldn't be happy. I can understand that people wanted to make a playoff run. There was no ideal solution. In the grand scheme of things, I would feel horrible if I benched your guy for a long time but he will miss only 1 or 2 games.

Just wondering........why are you in such a hurry to get released if the team you are going to can't sign you until the off-season anyway?

They are picking me up to replace an inactive guy. I dont remember all the details on chemistry because when I was an owner I never really worried too much about it but I guess if he gets me via trade its a larger hit than just picking me up as a free agent. Right now they can make do with the guy they have and they feel the chemistry hit by making the trade would be too much to absorb.

Also, most of my other guys are on a team that belongs to a good friend of mine and I also GM for. Last season, we combined all of our high level players to my team and tried to make a run in the EE AAA#1 league. That didnt work out so well so and then I decided to sell my team due to some other circumstances in an effort to scale back my GLB time. I farmed a few of my guys out to other teams but moved most of them to his team which happened to drop down to A level due to the horrific season they had last season. So right now we are in a very non-competitive league and are blowing teams out left and right. If nothing else, I could sign my kicker to that team thru the end of the season and let him play kickoff and punt coverage to make XP and then move him to the new team in the off season. It would be better than sitting around not on a depth chart and getting no XP. And according to your other posts you said I would be released in another 2 days so that is at least one more game missed.

lol, you're an idiot. me being concerned about the shitty treatment the agents on your team are getting means i'm jealous? that really is laugh out loud funny. what could i possibly be jealous of?

all your trophies?

your top notch style of management?

your 1-2 career record against us?

your second failure as a team in 2.5 seasons?

the fact that you singed 10-15 of your lvl 40+ guys to an AA team?

please do enlighten me
