Sounds to me like he was trying to make a deal with either LA or STC.
Not at all but yes those teams fit that criteria beautifully.

Hey, everyone has a plan. It isnt the right plan or even the best one but thats what makes this fun and the different mentalities for each of us.

Translation: Everyone has the wrong plan, I have the right plan and will continue to win every title, which makes this fun. :)

Absolutely loving the new ratings the more I see them. They just feel right and make sense.

I don't think we'll see much dealing until people get more comfortable with these new ratings. Most are a bit freaked out over them right now :lol:

It seems that OOTP made a good adjustment so guys don't seem so highly rated.
Most, not all, but many of the players actual attributes did not change or if they did, not much, from what I am seeing.
It is just their Overall Potential seemed to get adjusted to be better, IMO.

While I agree with Corey that some people have crazy high valuations of their own players and ridiculous ones of yours, like Ted said in the other thread I don't know how you could be mad you're not getting calls when everyone knows there's only 1-2 teams that you'd trade Todd to anyway. It was easier for me to just reach out to specific teams when I was dealing Kent Clark since there were only 3-5 players I was targeting in return

Its a league thing. Guys truly dont want to win titles. They want to sit on their 90-100 wins and keep their young talent and laugh at you when you propose a fair trade.

Its what the league has become in terms of trade values and actually wanting to pursue options.

Good luck in trading your top 5 arm for anything of value around here. Let alone a Todd.
That kind of attitude is not exclusive to this league. It exists in the other two leagues I am in as well. Teams that are close but not willing to pull the trigger on that deal to push them over the top. Although in this case it would take most, if not all, teams more then Todd to compete against Boston.
Thats the part that cracks me up about these fringe teams not willing to take these risks. Especially after failing multiple season in a row where they may win 90-100 games and then get swept in the postseason or never get out of the first round.

If I had the players I'd hit ya up. I'm not scared to try and make moves

Not sure how you came to this conclusion but its inaccurate.

Also, I am far from "mad" as you put it. I don't HAVE to trade Todd but I enjoy exploring team moves and various ways to win...aka the huge deal for Cactus disregarding half my rotation to build a stronger lineup. It worked.

So when I dont get one inquiry about Todd I find that funny. Thats all.

Interested to hear what 2 teams you think those are and the reason behind it.


Honestly, not sarcastically

Why release Todd when you can post up a Stormy Daniels for Todd trade any time you want? :)
