Looks like I underestimated what my product placement and play selecting abilities can do on their own. With the roster parameters aside I can now slowly work on erecting the War Machine.

Appropriate hype you tube video. :)

And this is the precise reason why I got pissed when you considered leaving. Like Smirt211 by himself, regardless of roster composition, couldn't field a competitive team.

It was pretty much because I thought since it was identified that I'd be without a kicker...it'd go a step further with a trap off in strategy. There were about 2 kickers whom were 100-ish strength and 80 accuracy (I can work around the accuracy) and all other kickers were a losing move. You want high end strength to avoid kickoff returns. Going low end strength to get 100 accuracy is pointless because now you're kicking short on returns + can't hit from long on FGs.

I said hmm if someone or someone's wanted to they could bid away the 2 kickers and then I am f***ked. I probably would have stayed. I was hyping and motivating myself up to not miss on the kicker.

Now now now, only the preseason. :) Doesn’t mean a thing. Like my mighty Gators lost our game. I already have Sept 21 circled on my MFN calendar, where my Gators will bring Syracuse back down to Earth. ;)

Looks like I lead off with AI (yay!) and have you in Week 3 (oh no!) therefore I better mash AI to oblivion in Week 1.

I've got everything carefully scripted except one lone aspect: offensive rules. I'm blank slating my approach for this league. War Machine is 100% ready besides that.

I am just glad we're not Week #1. I had VCR in the XFL for Week 1, he clowned me and I've been fighting Title Game style every game now just to make the playoffs!

I've been rather fortunate. My pretty much scrub TE went kaput for half a season and it just took me awhile to realize I won a TE convert WW claim to fill the slot....

Yeah, that was a pretty unfair advantage for me. Yes, there was the preseason - but it was the first real game I had with that team. Pretty much impossible to scout at all. You'll get that advantage here for the first few games.

I'm close. Just streamlined and then I need to carefully craft some offensive rules and I'll aim for 70-100 points on AI for Week 1.
