SCOTT,

1) GREEN BASES ONLY- THE BASE IS CONSIDERED AN EXTENSION OF THE GRASS FIELD. This is all done in the MPFL so it all matches and meshes together. I must agree with ant on this one, (I PERSONALLY, KEY WORD PERSONALLY, AM NOT A FAN OF COLORED BASES, IT'S JUST ME ). Thee only exception for me is if i have a custom field cover that is snow, then white bases can be used also. I've heard coaches say well the colored bases can be like the players shoes. But the player has on cleets already with a decal on it. JUST VIEW THE BASE AS A CHUNK OF GRASS UNDERNEATH THE PLAYER. However, you can use any color base you want, you just have to paint it green. If you find the greatest PURPLE, ORANGE, YELLOW ETC ETC BASE FOR A PATICULAR PLAYER, USE THAT BASE AND PAINT IT. !!!

2)DIAL BASES- There's really no talk or use of dial bases in the MPFL because you really do not need any. IT'S BEST TO GO ALL ROOKIE . THERE YOU WILL HAVE PLENTY OF ROOM FOR THE WEIGHTS. Reason why coaches select ttc's for use is to LOOP sometimes. Run a sweep. Have there safety spinning until he is ready to make a tackle. Some rely on ttc's for line strength. This system alleviates all of that. Look at it this way. It is you (THE COACH). Who is holding position via magnets. Sending streamline blitzers (not loopers anymore). You can run a delay stunt blitz via your use of magnets and a quick stop. You can place an outside linebacker (who would be a looper in traditional football in some cases) on a magnet and hold. During that next stop, take hime off the magnet and send on a streamline blitz towards ROMO. There could be a scenario where that tackle slid outside of the outside linebackers path for some reason. You may see a comfortable seam where you fell confident your linebacker can get through on the next stop. Take him off the magnet and run him on a inside stunt at the qb. In this type of system, he is stunting more than looping due to the use of fast rookie bases. DON'T GET ME WRONG, YOU MAY HAVE A ROOKIE BASE THAT CURLS. But wouldn't you feel more comfortable/confident in a player you can direct to pursue and chase. Wouldn't you rather be L.T. thinking, pursuing, stunting trying to get JOE THEISMAN. How many times have you seen a linebacker start outside then slash inside. Start inside then step around the tackles outer shoulder for a path towards the qb.

3)staying on your side of the field- I will be the first to admit i am not the one to answer any ttqb passing questions. I will respecfully let the commissioner answer this one and elaborate on what i have posted as well.


THANX
