I've never agreed and disagreed with a comment as much as I have with this one.
I'll start with what you got dead wrong.

First off, you can't simply compare today's players to those of four years ago. You can only look at their level of productivity then compare their rank and stats during their era. This is the case with the comparisons between Peyton Manning and Johnny Unitas. If the current Peyton Manning was sent back into time to play during Unitas' era he would simply dominate in every aspect of the game. Then again, what if Manning grew up in Unitas' era and he only competed against the level of play that Unitas got to compete against. Would Manning be as good as he is today? No. You cannot go back in time and you cannot play 'what if'. They're comparing each quarterback's level of productivity against the other quarterbacks that they played against, in their respective era.

9 of the 14 players that were indicted in the Hall of Fame(2008-2011) have shown that they could compete at the modern level of play. I also believe that if WhooKid attempted to actually play again he could be a top 2 QB until he dethrones your's truly. WhooKid would only have to familiarize himself with the aggressive pass rush, which was not present during the early days.

I agreed with everything that you said about the competition part of the game.

When Team Money was the best team around, I rushed to put a team together that would beat them. Although it took some time and patience, we finally did it. You can go through the old forum posts and see how mad some of the players were when that happened. If that ever happens to GB, I'll probably be just as pissed.

The combination of me to Grogglez should only inspire others to take us down. As should the back-to-back Championships.

The inactivity of players is just a part of the game. One that I believe will be decreased with the release of the new version of the mod. History has shown that this time of year has been the most active. Like you said, we should take advantage of it and begin scrimming again.

I think step 1 should be to get someone to DDoS all of the LoL servers so we can get William back. Haha kidding.
