5 wins and 5 shutouts for your team, that's quite impressive

It rejected my concept and never would let me recover from it. You run afoul of the engine and it cuts you off. Mmm, so much for blasting an injured weakness.

Good game, Gold.

Wait, what. Last Log-in for opposing GM: 01/27/22 11:03 am

Oh, man. Wow. No game plan got me. *pacing into a fury*

mmm, misuse of the FB Dive gave me a game long clowning, even though I went after dead DTs. ****.

That's the first time ever. Alright, quiet time to figure out other mean game plans I can bring in the future. :(

Good game, trslick!

I've got to go and watch this game. I checked out the stats and WOW! All was pretty even, except the time of possession...we won that 36-24 minutes...but you won the big stat a 37-3 **** whoopin'!

Good luck the rest of the season!

At least, Greg gives you a fighting chance here, CJ.

Admiral shuts down free agency for a real life week in Legends so that he can parse through every open team and ensure nothing hits free agency.

...and during that real life week he gets a Pauly D mega phone while standing atop a pulpit to screech loudly for every one to re-sign, re-sign, re-sign.

It's quite honestly the most unfair thing I've ever seen on MFN.

Never mind, the time he told the world psst, hey everyone, the Daggers have no one signed on a week delay free agency thread. ***. lol


This league is almost always full of good owners so nothing much hits free agency here either. When a 5th year elite level player does hit free agency, it's like blood in the water and a bunch of owners throw max contracts at him.

I'm not complaining, rebuilding a francise through the draft and being patient is fine by me. I loaded up on picks this season but training camp hurt especially at QB. I can live through a few bad seasons here.

The free agency contrast is nearly identical between the two leagues, however, the intent varies significantly between the two.

Greg is a Guardian of the Galaxy lol - protecting league integrity.

Admiral masks the intentions to be the above, however, it's that + a wicked determination to bog down the process and buy time to get into each team + inform the world how to protect all their assets. Heh, which feeds into what you have stated. Clearing out competition, making his life easier to win titles.

Knowing I don't do the draft game - he went on a mission to road block FA.

I don't like Theadmiral either Smirt but what you are describing doesn't bother me at all. I look at it like a league admin and what he is doing is protecting francises so new ownership doesn't walk into a situation where the cupboard is bare.

I get it, you want to sign great free agents but I don't fault him for this despite everything I don't like about him. I get why he does it.

I also get why you don't draft and build that way. You have to win now or face dealing with losing and at that comes with that. I couldn't live with that constant pressure to be the best all the time. It would take all the fun out of the game for me. Some of the best times I've had in MFN is taking a garbage team, losing for a few seasons then making them a contender. Your situation makes that impossible to do because you have put a huge target on your back and any slip is a sign of weakness and everyone will attack.
