Potential US National team winger being killed

Recent transfer for Will Hale, a 22 yo American in excellent form.

8/8/2004 Chelsea_FC The Reign 5 000 000 US$ 151 920






The Reign sold all their players on the 7th, and only has 5 players on its squad. Is the owner of the Reign who I think it is? If so, he sure isn't "Still undefeated".

Found out about this from the national team board.

What were his stats? I've been looking like mad for an American of high caliber to train in wing. I would've bought him if I'd known about it. . .

The Reign was indeed BM if I remember correctly.

The guy who bought Souza did so AFTER he decided to quit. So he's just killing him for the hell of it.

This is a guy who posted in global saying he's trying to get into the most debt ever. And then started another thread saying that you can't have more than 255 staff members of any kind.........since he tried. Hopefully OP can add him to the national team after the WC, and then he can be put on the transfer list. Why couldn't someone do this to sweden or something?

Won't the player be worthless by then? Won't the guy's team be vaporized by then too?

This is funny. Anytime Chubby posts, I can see the fact he posted, but not what he posted. I don't have him on an ignore list or anything. Weird.

For example, I followed the link here

"Today 09:11 PM
by Chubby "

But the last post I see is by our oneto7 chap. Kind of cool. Hope you're not saying anything important, Chubby.

Same here AE. It jumps from #7 to #9 in this thread. It's been awhile since I've seen any of Chubby's posts, but I don't have him on ignore. It also looks like he started a thread, but I can't see in in the list.

Because it would be a lame way to beat someone? Even if you manage to beat them in this manner, it would still be tainted.

Skydog ghosted like the spineless wuss that he is.

After the last hissy fit he threw he put me in the sin bin, took me out, ghosted me so I wouldn't know no one couldn't see my posts.

I took a break for a couple of weeks (did the same in IHOF, they can attest) after the latest pissing match with Skydog in an effort to let him get his panties untwisted.

He'd definitely be better if he'd been trained the whole time, but I wouldn't say that makes him worthless. If someone picks him up and trains him again, he could pass anyone not being trained.

The team's got 7 weeks before being reset or replaced (depending on what division they're in), so if OP puts him on the team before then, the GM's should put the guy on the transfer list to free him up. He'd have to wait till after the world cup though to avoid the TS hit from it. Blegh.

Vexroid: Yeah, it changed. You can see all the old posts he made while ghosted now.

Just as an aside, Will Hale is back on sale for 1$ and has a bid of 6k on him. He's a utopian winger.

I'd like to do a national teamer, but I couldn't handle the $100k+ weekly salary that guy puts out.
