Aldridge is not a bad looking backup guard for someone.

I see TicTacShack is selling off most of his players. Rebuilding and giving up on the season?

Not to speak for him, but I can definitely see the allure of spending 250k/wk and playing 1-2 playoff games vs. spending close to 500k/wk and playing 1-2 playoff games. Actually, I guess I am speaking for him, then, so I suppose it's time for me to reveal how much he respects my immaculate awesomeness and modesty. It's big of him to admit that, so I respect myself for doing it for him.

I'm honored to give you your 1600th +1, sir (with the assist to tictacshack's modesty). Thank god promotion/relegation isn't affected by this or we'd have no chance.

Actually you'd be winning NBBA titles every year, so I guess you wouldn't be in this league anyway.

hrudey has that mostly right. Lowering my salary bill with 3 more home games seemed like a good idea. I've ensured a playoff spot at least and I don't have a lot of hope to compete with Delta, Kelts, or Thumpers in the playoffs, especially since I was almost broke before selling Julian and Ritter.

Also, I figure I can get the best prices now, a week ahead of the playoffs. So, I put their prices at the high end of their transfer compare and if they don't sell then I can either keep them until I decide to retire them, or relist for lower ahead of the playoffs. Not to mention that most of my players are in the 29-30 age range meaning that they will lose value drastically in the next few seasons. I'll probably look to rebuild once the playoff deadline hits, as prices tend to go down then.

The other thought I had was to do a complete rebuild since training is my favorite part of the game, but that would involve a couple of relegations to get a good draft pick (and then need to sell old draft picks, which I don't really want to do). I think I can push on by rebuilding in the offseason and make a good run next season.

tl; dr: hrudey's right (and/or awesome; you decide)

Thank you for the kind words, and the ball too although those tend to get lost in the shuffle. I think you're right that it's good that +1s don't affect the standings in any way, but it's just further proof that I am indeed the master of the useless.

No need to sell your dreams short. You can achieve relegation if you put your mind toward it. I suggest next season! ;)

Contrary to popular belief, I think the playoffs will be very interesting.

I know I'll be doing my part to prove you wrong.

Farewell all the fine fellas of II.4. I hardly knew ya. My team has been assembled for an incredibly mediocre assault on D3. Training is going well. I have money in the bank and an extremely odd mixture of players on my roster. I will be selling a guard in the next couple days. Anyway good luck to those in the playoffs and good luck to any of you poor miserable son of bitches that get stuck in this hell hole for another season. Yuck out.

For a very mediocre time, call 555-YUCK.

Good luck in III. Give them the back of your hand until they recognize your greatness.

Well said, Yuck! Good luck to you and your club. Hang in there!
