I had to ask smirt. You said that was the reason. I will just ask the owner if that is the reason. Guess what, it ain't.

So you're bullshit liar just looking to say anything

Here's an example. If you face a meanie like GDB or Kabab you have to be prepared. There's another aggressive ***** or two I'm missing.

If they find a gap - they'll crush and then taunt you with it to your face. Therefore, you need a CB speed coverage at LB to halt out of the back field connections, otherwise they'll zap you with it over and over. My motivation to avoid getting beat by the nasty vocal people, therefore, unfortunately nice people get hit, too. :(

Truth be told smirt won't play any different with my question to him. Just probably put more pressure on him.

I'm a learning player and will ask questions. I'm also observant. If others want to disregard my ramblings so be it. I choose to rarely speak out and took advantage of a forum only to get bashed for having a strong opinion.

To further be noted Greg you had sent me an email upon joining that league advising weight restrictions were no longer a rule and that a person simply needed to be listed as a RB. The rule is in direct contrast to what you told me and I only pointed out that it could be skirted by flipping positions before GameDay.

The RB has to make weight to play - can't switch, flip and flop.

I'll say this. When I read the discord chat crying about WR @ RB I'm apathetic to it and could care less. Those same people are rather mean and would slash your throat if they could in this game, by any means necessary.

No read USFL rules. They explicitly say weight restrictions are not longer in effect. The catch is that to run the ball they have to be listed as an RB or heavier position - therefore you could have a WR weight, change the player to RB, TE, RT, QB, LG and he is eligible to run the ball for that game because all these positions run at higher weights (regardless of the fact there are no weight restrictions). It just doesn't make any sense and is untraceable if someone utilized the rule as written.

You'd literally need to check rosters before and after games to ensure this rule was respected. I always opted in USFL to stick to keeping ittrue, meaning I played my RBs at RB. Again only being vocal with an opinion and pointing out contrasts to the rule seemed to ruffle feathers. Bunch of Nancy's.

Nah, Greg would catch ya and go Donkey Kong.

If you put him @ RB with a listed RB you have to do it in good faith.

Icenhour was jacked up. I didn't do the wrong thing. I waited to the off-season and then I moved him from WR to RB and did it legit instead of a quick move to RB and having him run the next game.

Macovril would have cried and had me booted.

That's you though. Public enemy #1. The rule is the rule in USFL and it says weight restrictions are no longer applicable, player on needs to be listed as RB to carry ball.

Double standards, yeah. Someone else would slip by for a bit.

It's why I play angry and with a chip on my shoulder; every game as a personal affront due to ...an example: I got PM'd out of Moguls before I even played a game or Gustoon's league - same way and after I did a deep long set-up.

I realize this conversation is a carryover from the USFL forum and while I appreciate the discussion, let's remember this is the XFL league...please.

We only have 1 rule in the XFL

Personal arguments should be handled via PM because when they are aired publicly, nobody wins and it creates issues.

Thank you
