Hey it's not personal - just a fair application of the rules. We didn't do it for dangalanti and we can't make things easy for you either. But if you want to make it personal, see you in the Super Bowl, as you say. I'll be waiting.

You can sign whoever you want. I'm just warning you to stay under the cap if you don't want the AI to cut more of your players.

The salary cap is not some new exotic mystical feature that no one knew about. It's a basic part of the game that hasn't changed in all the time we have been playing.

And sorry, "I was waiting for Grandad" is not a legitimate excuse. What's next? "We have to undo the simulation because Grandad didn't help me game plan, so the game shouldn't count." "I drafted the wrong guy because I didn't get Grandad's opinion yet." You are the owner, so the burden is on you to make the tough calls regarding cuts. I think most people will be nice and not bid, just like they did for dangalanti. But just telling you, you are subject to all the same game rules everyone else is, and just because Grandad is advising you doesn't make you exempt.


Can we though? I didn't get Grandad's advice on how to beat the Panthers! I also have a growing suspicion that the Dildozers have been secretly getting Grandad's mentorship the last 3 seasons. #CONSPIRACY

So what you are saying is that we should invalidate all of SF’s wins since the Spinner trade? It’s only fair right?
