This is making me think that there must be studies about why people mourn the loss of absolute value when the relative value of their goods remains stable (or even improves!).


For real. I wish that this housing market crash could have waited 5-10+ years from now when I'd expect to have more money saved up to take advantage of it.

Still considering selling my place at a low price to get a better place at a low price. It's a great time to upsize if you can move your own.

Me too.

It does mean you can upgrade for cheap especially if you have the income to support it. Selling a player to upgrade is fine but what about buying a new shiney toy outright without sacrificing current talent?

I just don't see selling anyone soon because of the extreme deflation. I suppose thats what I meant as far as garbage.

Ok, Ok, Ok,

I just wasn't paying attention and was completely wrong about the statement.

Completely, Utterly, Wrong.

My wife would kill to hear those words btw.

Ahhhh, that's better.

I am wondering what the Technical Fouls excuse was.

If I get normalized in my last two games I am looking at 4-2.

Oh wellz, 6th place how I missed ye!



didn't you just answer your own comment? If I think like you did, meaning my team can't win if I normal, but can if I CT, then doesn't it make sense to go for the win? Especially since the cup is a TIE and the road arrows match is a TIE as well? I'll only be one level of enthusiasm lower when we get to interconference matches and I have an extra win.....

I'm not saying either was a bad decision, just was kinda funny to see lightning strike twice in a week.


I think we are well on our way to passing up last seasons post numbers.

The market is absolute garbage right now. I'm not sure its even worth selling players.


Doesn't a compressed market mean you can upgrade for cheap? That's what I was hoping for with this Bachini sale.


Not if people only list players for exorbitant TL prices hoping to get someone to bite. *cough* Gipson *cough*

Now its just sifting through waves of Free Agents.

I knew there was deflation and was aware of how low big men were selling for, but this is striking:

(6894305)

Transfer 10/28/2010 14 Purchased from King Drive Ballers for $ 1 456 600
Transfer 7/13/2010 13 Purchased from Nałęczów Warriors for $ 3 491 400

60% drop over 1 season for a player that just turned 25yo, doesn't have a crazy high salary, and who's skills didn't change. Not complaining, just amazed how the market has fallen off a cliff.
