Hey Bort,
Can you say a word about playing out of position penalties for DEs playing LB in a 3-4 defense? I know that many NFL teams draft smaller, quicker DEs as ideal 3-4 LBers. Thanks!

What do we have on tap next?
- One thing I think we are lacking is player recognition and reputation, as in "who are the big names?" Therefore, players will have a new "fame" rating.
You'll build up fame points over time for doing various things like playing well against similar or better competition, signing high value contracts, using certain training options (from above), etc. - basically the kind of stuff famous players do. Details aren't 100% hashed out yet. I'll probably do something to generate a base value for existing players based on their histories.
There will be a "most famous" page to compete with your friends over, haha.
Fame will help your player gain endorsement deals, command a higher salary, and high levels of fame will help you gain deals from top flight companies. Endorsement deals will give players access to special equipment that would not be available otherwise.
Awesome idea with the Fame and Endorsements. Question regarding this. Will high profile teams add more fame value. For example everyone knows the Cobra Kai and Chicago Mustangs. Will being on these popular teams increase fame and therefore raise the endorsement possibilities?

No, they can leave if they don't get paid (voiding the contract).
How many days? The very first day they don't get paid? 3 days after?
Can't be one day, but it's probably 3-5 days
I'm currently $222.80 in the red. I took out a loan early and bought a section on day 39 specifically because I realized after paying my last day of salaries I'd be $222.80 short to buy my expansion. I'll be able to pay back the loan and have plenty for my players equipment, etc after the first night of ticket sales, but if I have to worry about not being able to sign bonus's for free agents in the off season I might have to either sell back a section or sell one of my players in the off season. A situation I would prefer to avoid. I assume the money change will take effect after the offseason?

Overall, very very good.
I hope the tackling change and the smaller tweaks will be enough to balance O vs. D.

So....Do you really need a certain amount of strength and tackling to make power tackling more effective?

Lots and lots of great updates, nice stuff Bort.
I'm particularly interested in the training changes and the new "fame" stuff. It sounds like a hoot, and will help keep players interested. It also forces owners to loosen their purse strings a little.

Miss 3 days of payments and they can cut themselves.

Oh yea......Since I have a WR and I usually got picked off and my WR was able to make the tackles does this mean I need to start training tackling and use wrap-up to make sure he doesn't break my tackle?

If it makes sense, it's probably true.
