CAGiversary!
See, that's almost what's kind of sad though. Having to think about not wanting to use your favorite team because they might not be "Madden good". Almost seems like selling out a little bit, haha. If we were all just concerned with winning at Madden, we'd all be fighting over the 49ers.Yep, I am definitely a big Panthers fan! I have been watching them since we moved here when I was young in 2000 (actually from Nashville, lol). I like Newton to an extent, but my favorite era of the team was definitely the 03' Super Bowl run.
The only problem is that the Panthers have never been a good style fit for me. I will just have to see the rating and decide between a more Madden friendly team or my favorite team.
The system we had in Madden 12 was very similar to this. It didn't require that owners designate someone as a franchise player, but there was a limit on how many "core players" could be traded...with players 90+ counting more than players with lower ratings. This is what we used before.One thing that might be a good idea with a trade cap is the idea of franchise players. When an owner takes over a team, they have to designate one of their five highest-rated players as a franchise player. That player can only be dealt for another franchise guy, or two first-round picks (the equivalent of one franchise guy, since you can't predict where a pick will end up, etc). That might help curb some of the craziness.
Trades will be limited according to the following trade cap:
5 trades per season, 3 core players traded away max
90+ Player = 2 core players
80-89 Player = 1 core player
1st round pick = 1 core player
This basically meant that if someone wanted to trade a superstar, it would limit them to one other mid-level trade and 3 low-level trades for the rest of the season. Or, they could make 3 mid-level trades and 2 low-level trades. I think it provided decent flexibility without letting people go bonkers. Obviously, we would still have the restriction on "re-trades" as well.
Hmm...I'm not thinking of too many Bears fans. I know we had one last year...well, I think he was more of a Jay Culter fan than a Bears fan. But he's long gone, lol. Let me ask you this, do you think you'd enjoy the league and/or care more if you were using your favorite team?Born and raised in Chicago, I'm 100% a Bears fan and would love to play with them. I don't know the system for picking teams is on here and I know there are other Bears fans in the leage... so I guess my 2nd choice would be the Texans since now I live in Houston.
