Then there is your team, which is even higher leveled than the Legionnaires, not by working hard, but by the virtue of being a season 2 expansion team.
Arguing with you is useless because you don't care. You'll do what you have to win. Recruit better? Naw, I'll switch to a lower level league. Game plan better? Nope, switch to a lower leveled league. Suck it up and work harder? Nyet, let's move to APL. Screw up my stadium expansions? No problem, I'll move to APL.
Do you not see anything wrong with that?
I see your point but I think you exaggerate it mercilessly to make it. I was skeptical that Bort would allow it but he did. If you don't like the way the game is being run, you can attempt to use the various methods of communication available to you which I'm sure you or some others have or at worst, for other teams who "shouldn't have" been swapped.
The bottomline to me is. I'm here now and I'll approach it like anY other owner. Have fun with it. You appear to take this personally. I can also say that you diss my team for swapping here but you could also embrace the challenge brought about for the other 31 teams here. I've already told Hokiemon in private that I expect his team to win. That's humility. I didn't come here saying I'M GOING TO BEAT EVERYONE'S ASS HAHAHAHA LOL IMO. I just showed up and the hate kind of stacked upon itself. Is it a great situation for everyone? Just depends how you look at it and I don't think it's going to destroy OUR league. But it will weed out some stragglers who don't work hard enough on their teams whether it be recruiting or gameplanning, etc. Fight Club had to earn its keep for 3 seasons in USA AAA1 and managed to eventually finish 4th after two seasons being in 9th. It's not impossible to turn it around dramatically, it just takes a lot of work.
