Hahahah yeh he jagged it!!!
proving once again that it's just as effective to spend and do nothing for the draft as it is to be as fastidious in planning for it as you are.
either way you're like to get a good or bad suprise!!!

I'm still quite pleased with my pickup

Hi everyone! I would show you my draft picks but I have already fired them lol. Looks like a tough league, not looking forward to this season at all!

Hard to believe that there are so many potential tankers, expecially given the increased salary floor and the nature of the last draft

It's kinda sad people don't want to compete with what they have. I thought that was the whole idea of the game...

Yeah it does suck, but it seems to be the nature of the game these days.
I hate the idea of tanking. HOWEVER, it's a part of the game and I've never really done it.

I don't have a team left if I hadn't sold Gab Wall and Davila, that's $220k in 2 players and I couldn't afford them
So now I've sold some pieces and have roughly... $4mil in the bank and expect to earn $150k - $200k a week this season.
If I somehow get lucky and someone goes bot and I can steal 7th, then I might just do that and try to survive relegation.
but as it stands I need to rebuild from the ground up.

I hope when I promote back to Div II it's to the hardest conference of the hardest league.
But until then it's time to train some new blood.

Well I'm not tanking...not carrying the same salary as last season, as I was bleeding money, BUT I still hope to compete at least for a playoff berth!!! Of course it is a bit easier on my side of the division.

I do understand the financial benefits of tanking but I just can't bring myself to do it, and to be honest if it got to that stage I would probably let my team go bot and start a new team from scratch...

No plans to tank for me, haven't deliberately tanked ever, did drop from div 2 before due to focus on training but always tried to compete. Trying a new tactic this season with 2 stars to lead the team on the court.

Are u giving them a game because u feel bad for firing them?

No just doing different training this week and resting other players.
