Thanks for not bothering to ask first and getting undeserved blame pushed our way.

Also one question I have regarding Agents.

In real life Agents get a small cut when they negotiate a player's contract. That would be the case for NSFL Agents too right coz if not that seems rather weird.

One time when someone tried doing this (sapp) they proposed that but it’s really tricky because league doesn’t allow money transfers

"Do you approve or disapprove of the new agent rules?"

Although I can't say for sure, I get the impression that most GMs are ok with the idea of player agents. But like was said above, GMs weren't consulted on this and were surprised at the decision at the same time everyone else was. So unfortunately, going to a team with GMs in favor of agents isn't going to do much. There are other ways to make your point known with your FA decisions.

But also what the heck. Don't go anywhere! Stay with us in Baltimore bb I love the idea of player agents

I'm sorry Nunc, that was the impression I got from the previous comments. I appreciate you and other GMs sharing your views of what's transpired.
