And BTW guys, if you noticed, not one time thoughout all of these posts have I called anyone a name. I've been called an Idiot, a Nancy, a Whiner, a Loser, a Prick, uhm...what else am I missing....I know there were more.

Integrity and Character, Loyalty and Honour.

The players on my team would do anything for me (or atleast I think they say they would)

Just want to exploit network of GLB 'friends' that take advantage of the system, thats it. This league doesn't need another team with level 35+ players. We'd almost weeded them out....hopefully Bort will re-align again and promote Nova, Niagara, and Yellowknife regardless.

The point of the realignment was to put teams together in each conference that were close in levels. I really don't think it happened like it should have. That plus the fact that people refuse to use their Game Planning abilities to show who the best team is. They seem to always revert to BUYING a championship. I personaly do not have a problem with it as I play this game because of the GREAT people I have met in game. But there must be some way to stop people from buying championships. ALA the "Yankee" syndrome.

NFLVols.. in regard to the trade that you keep complaining about (that has been explained to you thousands of times already);

You act like , even in the NFL, no team ever trades for a player, and then that player never plays a down. That's what happened. It has been explained to you MANY times, and you keep ignoring it. A fair trade was made... the team that got the player decided he didnt fit or that they were able to bring in another even better player, and he was not needed to play. END OF STORY.



As for high level players:

You have high level players, and have yet to explain how a level 30+ player from a Pro team is any better (worse?) than a level 30+ player from a non Pro team. Who cares if my players came from WEP league... its not like my imaginary players gained "experience" from playing at "such a high level".

Any player BBB or Pro has the same experience at this point... come season 15 after th initial players are retired, then you will see the upper echelons having the higher level players consistently and the "lesser" leagues will have what's left over.

Are you saying we don't game plan? We aren't winning only because we have good players. A solid game plan is every bit as important as the roster.

Oh shit. He has inadvertently insulted Warpriest and he had to make an appearance in this thread. You messed up now :-\

Oh and yea this trade you are complaining about is stupid. Check the Fire's history, we have a huge history of bringing in players, selling players, buying players. We are constantly upgrading and WR is a position we have not been happy with. We thought we were going to need a WR. We bought him from Chris who had the exactly same max cash offer from another team even with the expiring contract and so we matched it for him. I then was able to reassure our WR situation and decided 5 WR was too many so I had to part ways with the WR. He of course was not needed on the Mules or he wouldnt have been traded and wasnt needed on the Fire. He choose to go to the Mobsters. Could have chosen any team he wanted to when I released him and he did. Just because he wanted to stay close to this group of owners dont hate. Bookmark the player and I hope he goes back and plays for the Mules sometime and you can scream foul some more. Stupid.

Don't take things out of context.

When your Players ability makes your game planning ability irrelevant does it matter? Like I said I do not disagree with the tactics you or anyone else use to win. Its your team do whattcha gotta do. What I am saying is that BORT should have done a better job of realigning teams to ensure that the lvl difference was ALOT closer to begin with.

Now having said that if you want to take what I said as a personal attack then go right ahead. I have better things to do than care about how you interpret what I type compared to how someone else had interpreted the same post. This argument to me is Absurd.

If you take a look at season 3 Africa AA #2 you will notice that the Zimbabwe Beavers lost 1 game. Once they lost that game they went out and ensured they out leveled each team by an average by about 7-10 lvls at each position. IF that is how you want to "EARN" Championships than that is your right. But If you only beat my team by 3 points and you out level me by that many lvls at each position. You have game planning problems. Each team does it a little differently.

Doinitin Djibouti slow built up until lvl 28 or there abeout. They are mainly lvl 32 players at the moment and would challenge most USA Pro teams, would certainly destroy any team in this league. Thats just the way they built their players is it right or wrong? Who cares thats how they wanted to build their team that was their right.

Having said that the Memphis Maulers believe in being loyal to the ones we came into the league with, the players that where lvl 1 when this team started and went through the first few seasons being a very average team. Now we are a bit better do we SUCK like some of you like to say the East does? Heck No! Is it our fault that some teams want to have High lvl players so they are guranteed a better chance at winning? Thats not how WE do things. So we will keep who we have because we enjoy keeping our team together because we enjoy being part of the Maulers not because we think we MUST win or we are worthless. This is a game gentleman and thats all it is, And the Memphis Maulers are having fun playing together......so I'll happily keep with the Maulers win or lose.

Oh NFLVols as a Bama Fan I must say I HATE Phil Fulmer.
My great Uncle is Johnny Majors used to eat Thanksgiving Dinner with him every year in a small town North of Huntsville Alabama. Not alot of love for UT. But I will certainly have more respect for the school once Phatty is gone.

Now I'm calling complete BS on this trade issue, no way in the world were you even considering keeping him. You guys have 92 MILLION Dollars for the San Fran Fire. Your current WR's are all above level 36....Coachy Jones is just now level 28, when he was traded for he was more than likely level 22-24. Don't give me that BS. With 92 million dollars you could have gotten any WR you wanted. Complete BS.

Bug off. What am I lying about? Its MY OPINION.

I keep forgetting most players on here are under the age of 25 and lack the maturity to discuss and admit they are wrong. Or atleast see that there is a possibility that it is wrong.

Who cares if my players came from WEP league... its not like my imaginary players gained "experience" from playing at "such a high level".



Its not necessarily the issue with the high level players. Its that the high level players are in Canada A#2 where their is so much disparity that its ridiculous. We have about 6 games a year we actually need to game plan for.....

Point is Chris knew this, he knows this LEAGUE. Brought players from the same REGION to a lower level. My goodness look at out conference? Its pathetic. We'll win 10 games by 50+ points. Thats just ridiculous.

I DON'T want to be in Canada A, I want to be in another league that is more competitive top to bottom. Canada A has new BBB teams coming that were capped last year, how many new ones this year? 6? Then you have the slow build teams.

I tried to get us moved up a league but they had already moved/realigned so it was out of the realm.

We've been around since Day 1 of this league and out players have grown in this league. Yes, we made some moves this season, but we replaced them with the same level guys that we had (mostly me bringing my guys over, my mid level guys) I did bring in two high level guys because we had 3 DE's go away, 2 went inactive and the other wanted to be retired. I was left with 1 DE. Very easily I could have brought all of my 'stud' players to my team. I have a LBer that had 30 sacks in Africa AAA last season, I have a level 34 HB that ran for 2000 yards last year. I have plenty of players that are much much better than the ones of my own that are on my team.

My main beef is moving down two divisions in the same region, and bringing established pro players into Canada A#2 Eastern Conference when its already WAY out of whack.

Whatever guys....I don't enjoy beating teams 100-0. And I don't want only a handful of games a year that we have to game plan for....

Our roster turnover isn't nearly what the Mules is....the main changes that were made was the previous owner has been inactive since early October....he had 7-9 players. I released or traded most of them for the earliest offer I received.....and I did inform them that the player goes inactive constantly.

We had a level 35 TE last year, this year a level 34 TE. We had 3 DE's that would be about the same level as some of our DE's this season. I had an agent that didn't want to boost his players, so I traded them to his team for my players so I could boost them, equal trade level wise - helped both teams.

Again this league is out of whack, it already was, but was going to be better, but the Mules made it worse by bringing in a RINGER team.....probably pushing on of us top 4-5 teams out of the continued realignement in the upcoming seasons.

Again if you look at my roster, most of the team has been here for a long while, the offseason moves this year were to get rid of an inactive owner that owned 7-10 players and was the previous OWNER of this team. I've been a GM since Day 1 had full control except Defense and Finances until mid year last year. Since then we've lost 3 games in the regular season.

In my OPINION Chris used poor judgement. First off bringing the guys from Canada AAA to Canada A...then not asking to be moved. With the right communication, I can gurantee you that the Mules could have switched spots with the Manitoba team since it was being sold.

NFLVols has an opinion not exactly sure why he is being bashed for people not agreeing with it as it is HIS opinion. I could understand why people would want out of a conference that there is no chance of competing in, unless your team plan involved not being able to compete this season in the first place.

That is my plan...to win and get out of this conference, competition is too weak. But there are only 4 teams that pose a threat on our side and one of them just went from nothing to Steroid Machine in a low low league with 10 teams that have no chance.

CMJ33, all of the bashing is coming from Mule players. Almost everyone of them have called names....etc etc. yada yada yada.....however they're all also affiliated through GLB on several other teams....and pat each other on the back when needed.

I'm done, message is sent. Obviously I caused a stir, cause they keep responding denying and defending themselves.....
