Going to do power rankings and the blog in the morning after work. Had 3 drafts today plus a free agency 1 in a league I renewed last minute. I was going to give up my AFL team so I'd have more time here but that team was a rebuild project. I had to get a bunch of players, and the team is good and competitive, but also $32 million of dead cap.
I didn't want to leave that for someone else, but I guess it doesn't matter if the AI gets hold of it. I thought I left my roster only team in good shape but the AI has them $16 million over the cap, so they will be contributing to the waiver wire frenzy.
I really wish the AI contract stuff was fixed so I'd feel less guilty leaving teams.
I know the feeling. But that isnt exclusive to just the A.I. I left my Washington team in the NFL league after winning a title 2 years prior then I stayed to defend it, made the playoffs but fell short. The following season, I left after making a league announcement stating the team had the core signed and 35 million left to sign free agents.
Some owner took the team and destroyed them in a real world week. He signed +40 contracts to players already on the team and signed to multiple years. It took the cap to -100 million under the cap.
I felt so bad after Greg told me somebody was running their mouth about me abandoning a team in that condition that I had to take the team back over. I'm into season 2 if the COMPLETE rebuild and its gonna take 2 more seasons at least to get them anywhere near competitive.
You spend so much time, months of building and constructing a roster only to have someone ruin it all I'm a week!
