I can't believe that we are actually mentioning free popcorn day as giving your team a morale bonus!?? I thought this was football, tell me HOW the team giving out free popcorn makes the players play better? In real life do you think the GD players really give a shit about free popcorn or hot dogs? ridiculous!

I believe they will give you an option to choose.

Only way I'd stay with this game now would be if Bort gives all players a full 100% reset of all purchased flex. Otherwise it's just not worth it - Later...

You can renegotiate the contracts of players that are currently on the team a maximum of three times per season. You can only renegotiate upwards, not downwards. If you want to renegotiate a contract downwards, you can only do so in the off season.
I must miss something at the previous discussion. But can I ask for the reason to restrict the times of contract renegotiation? Afraid that owners adjust upward the wages frequently and give their players more and more money? Why?

Run a poll and see how it turns out! Don't put a thread up for 2 and half days on subjects this complicated and say that you even have given everyone a decent opportunity to go over the plan and respond. Some of us are busy trying to run our teams. Believe or not it actually already takes too much time to run a team now. And the proposal was so complicated that one reading wasn't enough to really absorb it.
BTW...I read at least 5 pages of that thread and there were mostly negative comments. These changes are about it for my interest in this game as a team owner. I'll most likely be merging my team with another team next year as my friend and I already don't have enough time. I'll have to give up OC/DCing for the other team I do that for. That owner doesn't have time anymore so he said "you run or I'm getting rid of it" a couple of seasons ago. That team will be left behind too. I believe this is the effect these changes will bring.
And what is with all these morale bonuses and crap. Are they trying to make this into Madden Franchise Mode or something?

Holy hell I'm done trying to figure things out.
1st I read the original set of changes.Once or twice each to absorb it all in.
Then I read it a 2nd time with revised crap already.
Should I just check back in all 3 threads again in 5-10 days to read 3 new revised threads?
Sorry but I see why everyones frustrated.

So now this is being put into all leagues? Totally against it. Your putting in a salary cap to promote parity, but then you put in coaches which will make strong teams stronger and weak teams weaker. How idiotic is that? Not every team will be able to get coaches. I personally wouldn't sign a coach to a crappy/below average team. Whats the point.

These changes are being implemented because its what Bort wants, not what the majority wants. Imagine if they did a poll on this. Thats why they haven't, it would make them look bad.

Actually, don't even need a poll to show how bad they already look.
Seems like 95% of the posters since this was announced have been against it, but hey, let's ignore our customers and do it anyway.
Liking the response. Customer service at it's best
