I have read that there is a lot of talk about throwing games in the playoffs so teams don't get promoted! I think that is absurd and defeats the purpose of why we are all here. But at the same time it might be the best option for an owner and his team. It turns out every Can A league is thinking of doing the same thing. No one wants to be promoted into a league that they will get killed in.

Every league has promotions/demotions which helps keep everything competitive. But every other league has had a full season to mature players, build bankroll, build up their stadium, build team chemistry all without a level cap. The teams that win the conference championships in a lower level aren't suppose to dominate in the next level, but they aren't suppose to get beat by 100 pts each game either.

There is a push to try and get the Admins to allow us a full season before we promote, not sure how likely this will be, but it is worth a shot.

Who ever end up being promoted to the Can AA is going to have to make one of two choices:
1) Cut the guys who got him there and say thanks but you are not good enough for me now and I don't need you anymore (which sucks balls!)
2) Stick with the guys who got him there and take a beating by a 15 teams full of level +20 players and be demoted after one season.

We are the trial run of mid-season team additions, lets let them no that it is unfair to promote any of us right now.

Lets make sure our voices are heard!

This is false

AA is not full of level 20+ players. I looked at the league I would go into if i won and believe while we would not make the playoffs with just a few additions we could win a few games and stay in AA. WE would not be beaten by 100 each week as some have stated.

regadless if your outmatched you do not play a game to loose. Each game I will be going 100% to win and i'm positive my entire team will do the same. Win Loose or Tie.

I'm confused about how scared people are on here. People this is Football, Right? I mean come on there is no place for anyone to a punk in this sport. We were told as Freshman in HS by our coaches, "If you don't have the balls to play the game right, then go sit the bench." The same thing applies here with this promotion problem. I am an OC for a team that is in the AAA#2 league and I think my A team could compete and win the game. There are other factors that go into who wins and who doesn't on here. If you expect to win every league with just buying a better team then you'll be sadly mistaken and have the same problem that AAA team I'm on has. Chemistry is very low and the team has horrible moral issues. They have zero confidence and therefor don't perform well against teams they are better then. I hope I can be the team that gets Promoted. I wanna be the team that proves we can win at the next lvl with out scrapping my team. Obviouly you would bring in a few guys here or there but you don't have to throw away your team to be competitive in the AA leagues. I don't expect to win a league title but I don't expect to be 0-16 or even 3-13.

EXCELENT. people just automatically assume a higher level player means better. Which in a lot of cases can be true but in others completly false. Also there is more to a team then a players level.

One of my players plays in AA#4 and I believe that a new team that comes up this quick would maybe win 3-4 games and suffer some humiliating losses. In my conference a lot of the teams have been together for 2+ seasons. It's not about being afraid, it's just common sense.
