Well, things are going out of control here in Houston, mad friends of tough, and and a little mad Chekreyes..... "Ok, what I really want to do is to get 5th, build my arena to 8k, then will go for promotin. I just can't vuild any seats with my $$$ right now! Man, this is kinda frustrating......." says tough. They just aquired a guy named Henrique Forjaz, primarily for his high Inside scoreing. "My plan (if all the players sell) IS to get James and James as many minutes as they can so they can get training done. Then I'll start Dekis and Forjaz together in the Cup match. My aim is (with luck and no D3 to face) to ake it to the (at least) the 5th round, if not more, because That $$$ would help me to get through with building.......I really want ot build seats. I only got 5170, still need 3900 more." says tough. We spoke to the new Eagle. "Well, hope I can bring in as many points as I can this season. I also hope to do good contributing, and to help out a lot. Let's go Mountain Eagles!" Stay tuned for all the latest news, scores, highlights, and more with The Eagle. This is David Anderson, reporting for The Eagle.

Sounds to me like the GM isn't doing the job right if he can't keep you competitive, and have enough $$$ coming in to expand your arena. Ah, and with only 4 americans on the roster... and how many are homegrown? Your merchandising takes a BIG hit. Fans might want to see Americans playing on your team.

You may be right, buy like 80-90% of sucessful BB teams have 85% of their roster foreign. The other 10-20% is the opposite.....

Are 85% of the successful teams in Div V?

They probably already have their stadiums built up.

I meant overall. Anyways, I'm going to search (when I have enough $$$ and able to have a great arena; AKA 8000) for USA players. I don't know why but a lot of USA guys are good, they're expensive. So I was stuck with foreign players....

Arena starts universally at 5k right? What did you do with your 300K seed money?

I invested 150k (750 bleacher seats), right off the bat, and then with the 150k I toyed and played shopping for players.
9 of my 12 players were acquisitions through the TL, and 4 of my 12 active, or 4 of the 9 I purchased. Were foreign. 2 are of "trainee" age.. but neither is a trainee.
2 were cornerstones of team though. Or as the Denver Daily will refer to them...
"The Captain" and "The MVP"

Hmmm........didn't have a mentor yet, so stupidly spent it all on aquisitions, old guys, and others that I don't even have no more.........pretty much scewed myself into a tiny hole and stuck there now until I sell these players, aim is to get 400k out of this, then use it all to build my arena............To 6200 seats. first

I don't have a mentor... but those help manuals, and game faq things they have. Their "recommended" reading... yessir, very helpful stuff indeed. Also the timing of when I started helped for getting people so cheaply as the Transfer List was overflowing with players etc. So I could pick and choose whom I wanted, and for how much, and if they went up too high I said screw it, and looked for a diff guy similar to what I need, that was in my price range.

I still have fine tuning to do too... or I would have just cut the 5-6 guys, instead of trying to sell on TL... cost me an extra 15K in the player salaries on the financial update, and for what... trying to get 6-10K extra from TL... stupid stupid... bonks self
