no doubt crocs are strong but you da man

upsets do often happen especially when one team doesnt put in 100%

but all things being equal you should win

jj- you dont win cake you are the fruitcake

2 guys sold down to 199 now just sell the rest and you wont be bankrupt but you must have lost $900,000 already, brilliant move

I have bipolar disorder (so don't call me a fruitcake please), I'm prone to doing irrational things.

Logged in Friday night and checked my training update. Zero total pops for the second week in a row after perfect one-position OD training the last 2 weeks. And then I realised I missed the playoff eligibility deadline to transfer-list my players so they would now sell for a lot less. And the only worthwhile draft prospect I found is going to Iwen.

The past week I quit my job and broke up with my girlfriend so I figured I might as well kill my BB team as well. Bought all those players and spent the rest of my money on ridiculously overpriced staff, then fired them a bunch of times until I was 500k in debt.

I'll have a new team in 2 weeks.

well

quitting your job can be a positive, gives you a lot more free time

and the option to set your life in a new direction

dropping your girlfriend can be good too, if she knows you well and really cares she wont let you drop her and will stay around

if not dont worry there are a ton of others out there - you will probably end up with someone nicer and hotter

as for the team -bad decision i think

even if it seems like it all sucks and i dont know how much debt you have you still are in d3, you still have your arena, and last time i checked you had an amazing trainee one of the top in australia

ok, so you just chucked a million away, not good, but there is a rescue plan

list everyone tonight for $1 except your 3 trainees and a favourite player or two - i would only keep kris, ludovic and giocondo but you may have to sell one of two of them as well depending on how bad the debt is

everyone that doesnt sell - sack

with luck you can get back to positives

i hope you have still got a trainer, sack your doctor and pr dude

if you cant afford a trainer still do stam or ft training

starting again in div 4 will be really bad and while i want you to leave them for me there are several good prospects in our draft - but just one insane one and iwen only has 2nd pick so not him...

you may also have to set scouting to 0 - but that hurts a lot

let me know how in debt you are


you can be div 3 with a big arena, a great trainee or two and some awesome draft picks

or you can be div 4 with nothing

PS: one of my workmates is badly bipolar, dont know if she is better or worse than you, but she is an ace worker (and really hot) 90% of the time, and we just accept that 10% of the time she will be morose and useless - she is well worth it

I've got MPD (multiple personality disorder)... so I'm not that far away from you dingleton.

You don't have to give up just yet, I think goldfish is right, better to be in div3 with some arena and some trainees then in div4 with nothing at all...

if u are sick of your team, change the team name, if u are sick of the players, change them all... if u are sick of the game.. then just log on to BB less often =P

Steve Crocs have Rob McNamara, who is on the Aussie National Team is is one of, if not the best, small man in the league. He then backs it u with some strong big men in particular. He is hard to beat, and hard to know where to target him. Do you take on his strength, playing an outside game, knowing the Rob McNamara will have a very good outside defence, or do you try to hit his centres?

Then defending do you try to make Rob McNamara win the game on his own by shutting down the centres, or do you attack the passing lanes and try for turn overs, stopping Rob McNamara from feeding the big men?

But not my problem this week, my problem is Battlers.

My vote for MVP is Liang Huaizheng, te centre for Flames. With his numbers will be hard to beat.

Looks like I might have a chance against Aussie Battlers with Cathy on average game shape, while Bulman is respectable. With 2 of the regular starters slightly out of form I may have a chance. All the other possible game players for Battlers are on Strong game shape, so lets hope Bulman and Cathy have a bad game, not being able to get into the flow :-)
