I learned the hard way.....lol

My first season ever, I spent a lot of my money buying a bunch of players, then out of no where I see my net income
going to negative and I didn't know how get it going back to the positive, ended up having to fired some players
with in two week, almost got my account close for supposedly siphoning my money other teams....lol


I get you're being sarcastic.....lol

But that was a real thing that happened to me ha ha ha

I wanted to win that game because it was a TV game, but I didn't want to lose my enthusiasm rating for the relegation series. So I counter-picked (successfully) and edged out a victory by 3 points.

And Grabby has more experience than I do at this game. I just stated what most people used as a platform for player salary hoping that if someone knew better they'd say so. Or maybe it's their trade secret.

As for my team, Omnipresent Supergalactic Oneness (see Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls) I was $-50k per week and slowly drained all my funds so I had to ditch my $90k salary Center. I almost did it too late. But with him gone and I replaced my $60k+ trainer I'm back to +$30k because I took a hit in attendance. I was making $225k average, now I'm sub $200k.

Well, is more like this side of the aisle, the other side not so much.
Although I think the LA. Lords may change that some what.
I know is too early still we have to wait and see what adjustments the returning teams make.
But this side can get complicated early on in the season.


i think there will be a new "overlord" in this league this season - LA Lords. My pick to win it all, especially with their recent addition of PF Hortua. He is a beast and on the Venezuelan national team.

My kitties were feeling good going into the match at their place - would be a good test to see who will likely win the Great 8 - and it was not even close. i even did a few things to try and contain Hortua, to no avail. Losing by 20 away will translate into a loss of about 8-12 at home on the return leg. Was hoping to win Big Red and compete for the league title this season to promote back up to D.2. No way that is happening now. And the Bulls are pretty legit too in Red as well.

Will be real interesting to see how interleague play shapes up.

Yeah I wanted to win too as it was TV game, I just was hoping my bench could pulled it off, but your squad took them to OT and beat us..... congrats on that.

It did mess up the mins on one of my players which I had to bench for the first game of the post season, but decision on my part I was thinking ahead instead of the moment... oh well.

Well, LA lords has a manager that has been around for a good amount of time, even made it to the NBBA, so GagneOutWest knows what is doing for sure.

Wouldn't even surprise me, if GagneOutWest has a big bank like Rhino did last season.

I think to say they're favorites is more then fair.


What I meant about this side of the aisle is that, from 1 to 7 every team will be an honest challenge, not trying to offend BKDogs, but that team still has a lot growth to go through first, we all went through it.

While the Great 8 has Fiercekitties and it looked like your team was going to play the role Rhino's Rage played last season, that team that pretty much just walk to the finals on that side unchallenged, but now L.A. Lords has put some competition on that side.
Again not to offend the other Great 8 teams, but it appeared your team was the favorite over there, the Bulls are
a good team no doubt, but still.

Were you trying to get some satisfaction after that regular season loss last season. That was quite a beat down.

Ha ha ha ha I was going to complain to you, that you made me waste a good beatdown on your second unit.

I came ready to duke it out, your team is dangerous, can't sleep on you, felt as sleep on Shameless and look what
happened......lol

This season is going to be harder than last season, we have a legit 7 spots deep.

I am legit thinking of selling and starting over as well. I think my team is good enough to compete, but not necessarily win, and even if i did, i am not set well enough up finanically for DII.

I'm at that shit or get off the pot part where i can try to drop money on some transfers and see what happens, or sell high on some of the home grown pieces and set a better foundation going forward.

I've never gone full rebuild. I have a really long term sustainable growth plan. Right now, it has me stuck in division III. I won;t even know if it doesn;t work for quite some time. Oh well, I have fun here. A rebuild would be interesting. I'm always cash strapped.
