Hey, this has been more fun than nbba already! Maybe I'll stay awhile. That's the hip thing to do in II.4 right?


Staying by sheer force is neither fun nor cool. Bullying is not tolerated in II.4 and I see what you did there! Try staying in II.4 by complete accident or overwhelming luck. You will feel better about yourself and it makes the story so much more interesting for your co-worker that cares so deeply about your BBTeam.

Side note: post economic downturn/recession, Christmas seems to be a little on the side of underrated. It snuck up on me and I am having a wonderful time.

Side note 2: why do I get Smallfries as a rival? In order to be a rivalry, the other side has to win on occasion. The Yuck haven't beat them since season 19 and the only reason we won that game was because he was in the middle of rebuild XXVI. Every time since then we have managed to draw him prior or post rebuild. Isaiah has become extremely efficient at turning over a roster.

Merry Christmas fellas.

That's just because you are just one win away from equaling last seasons win total!

Needless to say, I'd be far less distressed about drawing you early in the Cup now, as opposed to twice in my first four freaking seasons in this game.

I got nothing to lose though.

I'm going for the 12 crunch times in a row achievement unlock.

And just tip, unless you want Sourpis in your face... you let Vardis use the executive washroom. No questions asked!

Now you're on the trolley!

Honestly, I think I'm going to take a similar take to what I did last season - try to lock up a secure position and then, if there isn't a clear leader go for the title. If there is a clear leader, I'll sell off my players that a worth anything and "tank" the last two weeks or so.

Also, apologies to those teams we play in the first couple of weeks. I'll try to lower salary soon, but I think I want to get the best prices for everyone. I still expect to have a competitive team, even with a 400k-450k payroll.

That's the spirit!

I've got room to trim some salary (hooray for 18k eleventh men!), but I'm not under real salary pressure at this point. If I get a crappy cup draw and lose my rivalry/TV game in the first third of the season I may then be under salary pressure, but last season's rivalry and Cup double-whammy was unpleasant, and I don't have the promotion bonus to float the first half of the season this time.

That's rough, and I'd have more sympathy if I hadn't enjoyed the privilege of getting to face teams that had just tanked their game vs. Delta all season long.
