Thanks scooter, I think I will go sign up now.

Unless, of course, your needs changed again. :P

We only have two WR's, definitely need a couple more.

Need immediately:

DT,TE, LB, DE

Need good depth at those above and:

C, G, OT, WR, SS, FS, QB

I can't stress enough that the "starters" will see about the same playing time as the back-ups. We need good depth all the way around, with peopl working hard to up there guys levels, boost when you can, and train hard.

We are well on our way to having a very tough team. Thanks to all the people who have joined, you guys are making the difference.

**Everyone needs to buy equipment and make sure you equip it. As we start to win, and develope our players the money will come. Right now we are putting together the building blocks for a playoff team. Please stay focused on developing your guys.

To all the newbies, I suggest reading up on a couple of threads or asking anyone on here some questions.

I've noticed that most everyone is planning on boosting 3 levels immediately once the season starts, but I think it would be wise to hold off until later in the season. The lower your level, the more experience you get for games and training. Which means you will level up faster. If we make the playoffs without boosting, it will make us so much tougher when we use all of our boosts at playoff time.

Well you can look at it like this. Do you boost early and help your team sooner, or boost later and help your team later. Some people opt to boost later because they plan on only staying with the team for 1 year and it will be easier to get on a higher ranked team that way, those that boost and stay with their teams are doing so in preperation for the next season.

The games are simulated (simm'd) every time there is a game at gametime. After which you can go in and watch play by play replays and see how your player performs at your leisure.

You only need a few minutes every day or every other day to set your training and attend to your player. However if you want to watch your unit's plays, check on what needs improved, and discuss tatics/strategy you can spin much more time. All in all, hopefully everyone is involved a few minutes a day to help develope their player. Good communication is key, with the DC, OC, and Owner about the scheme and what we are trying to do.

I can not stress enough that OL and DL need to build strenght, stamina, and level up. It all starts up front as they say.

I agree with Brandon, since we are in it for the long haul we have time to level up through XP points, but we want to start of strong and we should stay ahead of the pack. JMHO.

As far as training, I would pick a few key PHYSICAL attributes to most of the time increase on with skill points and train for the less important ones.

Like for a WR, spend your skill points on receiving ability, speed, stamina, hands. Train on the other stuff, etc. hope that make sense. If not check out this link, it provides a good idea of how to go about it:

There is still time for everyone to boost now before season 2 starts. Once season 2 starts, you can boost 3 more times for that season. The problem with using all of your boosts early, is that you won't be able to boost if needed later. It's your player, so you can do what you want. All I am saying is that I think we are going to be very competitive early, and if we are, we will be better off if we save our boosts until they are needed. If we use all of our boosts early, we may start out better than other teams, but if they save their boosts, they can level up naturally and actually pass us by at the end of the season. Like I said, it's your player. I'm just giving suggestions and my opinion. Do with it what you wish.
