it's not that simple.
cup is only profitable if you actually WIN it. That price money is good, the rest of it is peanuts.
but there is an other aspect. BBBL teams (teams in the highest league(s) are penalised in fanmood if the get icked out early) so up to a certain round, a BBBL team has to try to win it. If you are lucky you get small teams and bots and you indeed can arange minutes in that game.
If you are unlucky though, you need your guns in that game, and minutes arrangement is difficult that week.
This results in a weakened team afterwards, which could mean diffrence between win and loss. But loosing the cup also means less money, and believe me, the 50k each week is not what you are worried about...
later on in the cup, the choices get more difficult offcourse...
They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.
