I guess it was totally random with the handout of endorsements. Nothing against DE Roscoe "Stampede" Davis Jr., but why would a level 4 player get an endorsement over guys in the 40s and 50s. You would think you have to prove yourself before getting any endorsements. In fact, i don't think any of the DEs who are listed as the sack leaders even got any endorsements...very strange.

I didn't look through them all yet, but i'm sure there are other players who got them that didn't deserve them.

The local endorsement run has completed. These will be active for tomorrow's games.

Keep in mind that these are just the local, lowest level endorsements.
Better, MVP-level endorsements will be coming in the coming weeks
as we figure out
the MVP formula. For a refresher on how it will work, and how this first run worked,
check out my announcement a few days ago.

Also, I've gotten reports that some players' cache did not expire properly when their
endorsement was updated. If you're finding that's the case, try un-equipping and re-equipping
the item to update your display, and/or hitting the refresh button on the equipment page.
It's entirely a display problem, so if you don't do it, the correct data will still be used
in sims tomorrow.

Like i said..why waste an endorsement on a level 4 player. A player with absolutley no stats at all should never get an endorsement.

I understand they were handed out randomly...but that makes no sense at all in my opinion.

I agree kinda stupid. I would thing the MVP's endorsements would go first then down to the locals and the best level or players with the highest stats would get them next.

I really thing this game is great but it is a shame that it seams to be run by someone who is really good at computers and only a love for football not a person with a lot of football knowledge. This comes from a tactics point of view.

it's called a snowball effect...the really good guys, just get better and better. thats why they had to level the playing field. In reality, it's not so much how "good" you are. It's how good your team is, how much you play, how many big plays have you had, how important are you to the team. They cannot base it upon your personal stats when someone could have gone up against 3 cpu teams in row. I know if you were on the other end of the stick, you wouldn't want the best guys in the leauge to get them anyways. I think that would be stupid. dont go bashing on someone who has the knowledge to put together something great like GLB. if you put together your own mmo then you can bitch about the creator.

Im not bitching about the endorsements I really dont care its fun. My player got one and hes not bad, but I konw he dosen't deserve it. Hell my 3 other players are better and are atleast starters. Hes a great player but hasnt erarned it yet. At least not in this league.
As for bitching I really dont have a problem with bort I enjoy the game. But being someone who has played at a higher level of football the tactics and some of the setting are what I have a problem with. I just think he should allow someone who knows a bit more about football and stratigy to come up with the plays, and the O... and D... A.I. Sure the average TV football watcher doesnt notice the flaws (most people here) but people who know the sport more then the average "TV coach" see the areas of improvemnt. I think if bort wants this to be as great as it can be he should get some extra help from people who have smart football minds not people who watch the NFL network or ESPN and think they know football like most football fans. Its nobodys fault most people think they know football. Its one of those things that if you havent actually done more then play highschool football and watch it on TV you probably wouldnt understand. All and all its a great game and if they want it to be more fantasy and game like go that way. If they want to go the rout of a advanced football simulator then get some advice and go that way. Either way Ill still play,

I just read this in the recent update. I wasn't aware that you would lose any endorsements that you received.

ALSO:
- Keep in mind that local endorsements get reset and re-handed every 4 in-game weeks. That means week 4/8/12. End of week 8, new endorsements will go out and the old ones will go away
