How exactly do you secure funds for a move. I'm trying to move to LA b/c my fans aren't supporting us, but it got reject last year, and I'm trying again this year and I want to get it right.

You need to contribute ALOT of money to the relocation effort if you want to get it approved.... close to half the money to get the approval bar to turn green..better chances when bar is green

I was the Texans btw

Hey Acid..... I meant to ask, since the Ravens moved to L.A., was there any realignment? Did they stay in their same conference/division?
just curious....

No, they stayed in the same conference

"Guys like Maurice Clarett come in highly rated too. Overall, importing does provide better talent. "

But isn't that unrealistic. I mean new guys coming into the league should be lower than 70 overall if they are drafted in the fith round. I heard that importing NCAA draft classes loads up the talent pool in Madden by so much after a few years everyone at every position on every team is a superstar, that is not realistic.

That is true, especially as the years go on in NCAA. The talent in NCAA is so easy to progress and there are laods of players rated in the 90's. That 5th rounder at 70 overall had a bit of down side... his injury was way down in the 20s. If you ever find a projected first rounder in the later rounds, be prepared for that.

Terrell Davis was drafted in the sixth round. Ryan Leaf was drafted in the first. Should Leaf EVER have been rated higher than Davis? I think not. I LOVE it when I find one of those diamonds in the rough. And with the new rookie signing (No OVR given until a rookie is signed) it makes it even more realistic. You could actually have a bust that you pay a ton of money, similar to the actaul game of pro football.

What happens if you contribute more money than you have? Do you go bankrupt and lose your team?
