It helps that my play on the perimeter isn't as atrocious as it has been before. The goal was just to get into the dance. Hopefully we can all have some fun now that time has come!

Yeah, it is tough for JCW. They should hopefully cruise through the relegation series.

I think JCW will make more money from the RL series than the teams that lose in the 1st round of the playoff ... (which could very well be me).

Not sure that you make any $$$ from relegation series. Been a long time since that happened.

Would rather have a shot at promoting. Only game I lost since back to back losses against DOW and AAS was the 2ot loss. Given GS and all that, I'd like my chances.

But given how the $#^$ up attendance mechanics works, I'm not sure it matters.

You do make money for relegation series. (like in playoff it's split between home and away team). I stick by my claim that you'll end up in a better position than the teams that get eliminated in 1R.

Now there is a separate question whether that's better than a 5% shot at promotion: I don't think it is, but reasonable people might disagree on this. (I don't mean the 5% estimate as a slight against your team: I think from the lower seeds it's very hard to break through. Of course if you had a path to a #1/#2 seed that would be different!)

Good win! It was disappointing to lose the PO match after winning both in-season matches (although one of them narrowly). But your team can't be beaten at this level if our in-principle rebounding advantage does not turn out to be a massive rebounding differential.

My team will need to do a better job in-season in securing HCA! Good luck to all the teams still in the running: may you all promote..

Thanks, team is peaking at the right time but i expect it will be a much different story on Saturday at Doc's house. It was a good game, you will be a force again next year.

As for me...I am probably going to tear it all down in the off season. Rebuild my FCP madness but eliminating some mistakes I made the first time and investing a serious amount of cash into my arena and facilities. Which needs to happen because I do not have the financial base to compete at the upper levels yet. So I am pretty much spinning my wheels till I do.

That may have been the biggest attendance I've ever had. And I had to split the gate :\

Good deal for Pitt, I guess

Would have taken my chances against NYC though. He hit a ridiculous amount of 3pt shots down the stretch to make the last game look closer than it was

I think unlike the finals you actually get money for all 3 relegation games. Punt the second game and win the third for max revenue.

187k For both games combined

208k for the last regular season game (which was a disappointing number)

My average receipt is 211k over the season

Probably better off not paying salaries next week

FWIW, 11 teams in the league had over 2 million in total gate revenues. 4 were over 2.6 million: SWA, NYC, 84T and me.

NYC had the highest one game receipt at 372k. Fans must have been pissed at you after that
