I'm going to use my treasure chest to destroy all of you. Just wait for it. In about a week ill by 4 $150k+ players and beat everyone by 50. Be afraid, be very afraid.

To be clear and make sure everyone understands me though, I don't expect to do too much with my team. I'm going to continue building my treasure chest up and hopefully avoid relegation ;).

AS we enter interleague play, I'm probally going to look to win a couple of games, and keep some other's close.


Since we all seem to be boldly announcing our intentions, I plan on saving up enough money to purchase both of those mediocre prospects the Eagle has on the TL for ten times their value. I am worried that these two "gems" are the treasure Isaiah was referring to and I am pretty sure he has a lot more cash than I do.

Introducing: My Ambitions a II.4 themed boy band for the old and bitter. Between remakes of classic hits like "She got the coal mine, and I got the Shaft (man that Shaft is one bad mother)" and new songs like "You look like a million dollars to someone, I hope", the My Ambitions arena tour is sure to be better received than staph infections and toenail clipping quiche.

You must be short of time today because this post had the makings of a Hrudey classic. Short of Time is the hidden track 11 minutes beyond track 13.

What can I say, Visionaries are better at loosing than me, and I wouldn't mind a road win or two to boost my home attendance. I'm still struggling just to loose every game, which might get thrown out the window after my cup run in over.

I can't imagine how anybody tanks all the way back down to Div IV and still stays active in the game.

You have to really enjoy training. The draft becomes fun until you get the crap prize at the end. You can put a mildly competitive team together for the salary floor or slightly over the salary floor to extend a good run in the cup.

I did something similar in HT, from the top league and ended up dropping as far as V, while rebuilding my roster again from scratch. Got back up as far as II before I lost the passion for that game. But Yuck is right - you've got to really enjoy training, and I think you've also got to have some very real goals for building your team while you do that. It would be the type of thing here to see if you can train the ultimate outside isolation / full court press team, for example. I personally couldn't see doing it just as a money-making venture - tank a season or two, load up, buy your way back up, lather rinse repeat. That is what would seem pointless and dull to me.

Yeah, if I thought there was a golden ticket at the end of the rainbow with the first pick in the draft, but I'm afraid that all that hard work is more likely to land you a Darko or Adam Morison as opposed to a LeBron or Jordan.

And scanning the USA transfer list for a decent 6'8-6-10 prospect is a joke.
