Unfortunately (for the suspense) I don't see at this very moment any team capable of breaking Joe's hegemony.

Mizu sold many key players and started tanking, just like me, we both realized last season that a title was extremely unlikely.

I know that Joe is aiming for more than "only" BBBL titles, and wants to make another try to the B³, so he will have an extremely competitive team, but as I already told him, I don't see him winning that without going "all-in" that means a.o. training game shape when it comes to playing key weeks.

As for myself, wages are still under tight control and my bank is slowly growing up after the "disastrous" buy of Vekemans.

I personnaly don't expect more than a good Cup run (1/4 or 1/2 would be great) and play-off spot 3 or 4. Maybe, if no-one reinforces, I could even grab rank 2. That would be great :)

I just realized I totally forgot to wish Royal Canin, Split 84, Providence Steamrollers and Barbarians hello !

I think that everyone is a wecomer in BBBL, except Canin of course. I remember having won my play-off game in D.2 against Split, that was looong ago now :) I know Providence because Nat is a very good guy, I was in touch with him regarding Ken Neudt (a future NT super-superstar). I'll be glad to see him with Belgium jersey on !

About Barbarians, we crossed path back then when we were both in D.3, even won my league final against them, sending the Spartans in D.2. Well, no longer D.3 here, that's serious business around now :p

Hello everyone !

Congratulations to the promoted teams: Barbarians, Royal Canin, Split 84 & myself :D, and off course Vottem Cowboys for your title! After 3 finals in D.II, I'm happy to join the BBBL, It won't be easy, my roster still to complete, but I'm feel lucky to fall in the blue conference. The red conference still too strong for small teams !

I want to thanks Dartreb & Joe for their advices, I've learn so much about training. If I have a such promising player today, it's because of them.

Good luck to all !

Good luck to both of you.

BBBL is quite a challenge indeed, but with good enough plan and some reinforcement, it is possible to stay. I also felt I would never make it on my first season, and although it wasn't easy (to say the least) I managed to survive. And I'm surely not better than anyone else ;)

Enjoy your season !

It's true that the BBBL is a whole other challenge than playing in D.II, but it's precisely that which makes this game so much more fun to play. Because what fun is it to play in D.II, and play a whole season without losing a single game. I don't see the fun in that, when you always know in advance you're gonna win the game.
However in the BBBL, teams are much stronger and more competitive to one another. So every game has to be played, and it is always a challenge to capture the victory. It's so much more exciting that way in BBBL, I think.

Hi every one!
Thanks for welcoming me!
I'm very pleased to join the "master" league in belgium.
It's a long time since i started to play, trying to built a team with players bought when aged 22 or 23 and training them. Maybe it was a mistake but i still folowing this policy with my my 3 players (Tatti, Smidts and Jackowiack).
So, my only goal this year is to train them. Make some cash too :)
Even if i achieved to win a game i didn't expect to against boubou (thanks to the injury of his pointgard), i cannot forget that's training is what i'm looking for...Don't forget i was in dD.III two years ago. So, i will try to make other surprises if i can! Before coming back in 2 years, stronger
We'll see.
Good luck to every one, and especially to my friends Mizu, Bradok and mixhacker!
Paul

Me too, no present in the cup now.
At least, you play at home now, i don't.
This team is also second division, and is even higher ranked apparently.
But all in all, it shouldn't pose any problem for us, although it won't be a walkover either, like against bot teams.
