Due to lack of interest. I'm shutting this down. I'm sure it could fill, but I don't want to wait 2 months and having to breathe life into it. Thanks to napolean and PsychoWarper for joining.
The 70 mil idea is a good product. Defense makes every league better in creating more parity. Quality leagues have balance and strategy. More ways to win than just the unimaginative extreme offense with the same roster every time. Its not impressive or what the spirit of the game should be. Similar to a video game when you find out the cheat code or an unstoppable play. The game is never the same at that point. The mystery and creativity are gone. This is partly why people leave WIS football and never come back, or play the other WIS games with zero interest in football. The other reason is no sim updates or adjustments to the salaries. Offensive units and elite offensive players should cost much more to balance things out. Or reduce the good-to-great elite DEF unit cost. I digress. Haha.
For years, people have mentioned having a salary minimum of your Def. Perhaps, a Def with a salary no less than 23 mil could do that. I can immediately see 10 teams with the 52 Packers in that theme scenario! And for every Aaron Rodgers out there- try winning a SB with Chad Pennington, Marcus Mariotta or Andy Dalton. Much more rewarding. Even losing Super Bowls with Jeff George, Johnny U, Marc Bulger or Chris Chandler is far more enjoyable in my opinion.
Anyways, we can enjoy what is left of the current season. Good luck to all. Thank goodness baseball and hoops dynasty do not have these challenges.
