They do have Old Timers games in all sorts of sports, most notably baseball I think. The only example of an "old-timers league" with serous money in real like that I can think of is golf with the Senior PGA. But I'm sure your local YMCA has some sort of over-30 basketball league, I've seen lots of those sorts of leagues around for ordinary older folks (who have to play to play instead of the other way around).

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

The Senior PGA is international, but it's not a team sport.

There is no training, just skill losing and GS. Might be interesting. But Im affraid that another election system could turn out very boring... to see something like that here like twice per season. There should be something else.

Yeah, I don' t think we're proposing this seriously, just thinking about what it might be like.

Anyway, back to the thread, what are your best U-33s?

I'm not sure a USA IV league is tough enough to meet the criteria here, but the best player (imo) in my league is this 34 yo guy:

I'm thinking he'd actually be up there. Buzzerbeater has only been around for 14 seasons now, so 18yos the first season would now be only 32. In other words, we'd need to wait a season for any player trained from 18yo, and will probably need to wait 3-4 more seasons for many good players trained from 18yo to be over 33.


in the first season good trainees was very rare, and that wasn't kareen criteria ;) So a lot of teams trained a bit older guys, but real good player will come with the new potential system in that age.
