My team is in rebuild mode, but it's season 50 so why not?

I have been around since season 32 (actually longer under a previous team), so I know D4 leagues are mostly dead. But best of luck to anyone not playing me that week

Yea I miss how League IV's were back in the early 20's. I actually had to kind of compete to stay up in League IV. Somewhere between like 22 and 24 with my old team I had a center over 30k, a power forward over 30k, and a small forward at like 28k and I got relegated that season back to League V. So things have definitely changed.

I was the Atlanta Eagles from seasons 6-13. D4 wasn't very tough back then. I never had any players that were that good, but I didn't really understand the game either. I was in 3.2 and quit when it looked like I was getting relegated. I've played a lot of manager games and this is the only one left that I still play. Kind of a dying breed.

good luck this season, i had to dump my high end players because I couldn't afford them any longer. I should be here for the foreseeable future.

I've been here since the middle of season 7.

FWIW, it appears there are only 3 teams in each conference who are active. 3 others haven't checked in for a while (over 2 weeks). The rest are bots.

If you are active, there's a really good chance you'll make the playoffs. And all it takes is a couple of key injuries to throw everything out the window. The way things have been restructured, even the runner up can be promoted. So you never know.

Back with my old team we got demoted from League 3 and were sent down to a weak League 4 and ended up being runner up while breaking down the team and got screwed back up to League 3, that pretty much killed that team.

Sorry, I've been lurking on/off lately, and never post. I've been in this Division since I took ownership in Season 41, after the previous owner left them for dead after their promotion. FatJimi and I went toe/toe a couple seasons, taking turns knocking each other down, only to allow the other side to earn the promotion. Frustrating to have so many leagues with so many teams without ownership. It would be nice, if they'd consolidate things a bit

Anyway, Good Luck to everyone. Hopefully, one of us, will earn the promotion to Level III, rather than a shocking upset to a BOT.

Soooooo....

At the halfway point (kind of). Pretty obvious who the final 8 will be. I would guess that 2 teams will promote to D3. It should be an interesting run to the finish. GL to all'

FWIW, not too concerned if I promote or not. I'm more interested in training players. But it's always more profitable at higher levels. It's just hard to say if yu have enough talent to survive at the next level.

On personal note, my next scrimmage will mark my 101st flag. Only 2 more that are available.

Playoff Time is upon us. Altough, i am fully expecting to get bounced in the first round, it is nice to see some growth from the young players.

I wish you all the best of luck and may the best team win!

well, no upsets in the first round. I'm not anticipating any in the 2nd either. Good luck to the Final 4

You're probably right. I don't expect to win. And Atlanta has managed there game shape well. Pretty much just a training season for me.
