Admiral Part 2 = GDB.

I've already worked out just how difficult it would be to ban TE at WR and the work involved to monitor & enforce it. You literally have to watch every pass play in every game to ensure its not happening.....and won't owners just use RB at TE instead? or is he banning that too? What about WR at RB? What about WR at FB? And won't banning WR at TE just mean teams with the best TEs win? You know the TE I mean....one of those 85 speed, 100 everything types that everyone turns into a RB anyway


USFL = the perfect template for RB @ TE.

You convert WR to RB, put your head down and pound the 217 lb., 100 breaking tackle for the advantage. I go for group effort. I play to the rules. Notice I have minimal 1-2..? 2 maybe WRs. You go to the next lightest level and battle like a motherf.... LOL

I didn't like how Admiral ran his leagues but at least he wasn't constantly jerking himself off. GDB has this arrogance that doesn't sit well with me between him posting about how well his team does or creating his own GG thread in a league that basically served as his own thread to big himself up whenever he won but when I beat him he deflected by saying his roster was poor when it was better than most in the league.

If GDB perceives you found an edge he'll hang a lantern on it for all to see in the Good Game Thread by saying 'I should add that to my rules", therefore, immediately he's attempting to disarm you of your well thought out strategy while threatening to use it against you in the future.

He's a rather miserable person.

No matter what I or anyone else says about you, at least you don't bs people and try to control how everyone plays the game (even though I know you hate how some of us do). That and you also raise the level of competition as opposed to logging onto other people's accounts to win for them and you respect how the league admin runs their league.

GDB is genuinely someone I can't say any positive words about now that I have interacted with him more.

That's kinda my point about GDB being a league admin....you have to be somewhat selfless to be a good league admin. Don't get me wrong, Raidergreg & I like to win and actively try to win but rarely do any of the good league admins point the spotlight on themselves.

Raidergreg does a great job promoting other owners and their accomplishments while deflecting his personal achievements. I try my best to remain impartial especially when selecting ALLPROs and MVPs.

I find myself trying very hard not to select any of my players for either unless there is no other clear option and I don't think I've ever given myself a A+ grade in my 1st round draft review....Maybe I'm wrong but I would have to double check.

GDB is all about GDB

Big Data I could comprehend, the recent USFL playoff game I was banged up - the D&D Title Game sent me off the deep end because it started at the whistle to the final bell and it made no realistic sense or any reflection of play on play strategy with a record breaking offense I possessed but I'm dropping it now and starting clean slate to attack again (in game play) in the next wave of seasons.

I checked the grades I gave myself in all the 1st round picks and no A+ grades and only 4 of 16 got a flat A. I just don't feel right clapping myself on the back and maybe lean to far towards the other way. It's just amusing to me....sorry

You're always a fierce competitor so I know while we gave you a hard time about PFL too, no matter what you've got with that roster I know you're gonna give it your all and that only makes the league better.

Okay just gonna throw this out there since I don't know how no one has copied me because everyone spams fb dive conversions and I've been doing this for 4-5 seasons across multiple leagues, but you can stop the 2pt conversions at a decent clip with 1 rule and 0 overrides without relying on glitches.

Just make a rule to run 4-3 Under Double LB Blitz against 2 pt conversions and you will stop >50% of them, making it worse/equal to an extra point. The first time I played Smirt in D&D I noticed he ran the 2pt conversions and literally just looked for a play that looked like the LBs would be in a good spot and it worked.

There are probably better/more consistent ways to stuff it but this one is easy and requires almost 0 effort.
Problem solved.
