What do you think about having the choice to stop training whenever we want to?

Like HT, wouldn't be a good idea to have an option that could help us in our future economy?

Just train stamina or free throws. Or even Game Shape.

Well, if those uberexpensive players would be of any use it could become a major problem of one game rental approach. They would also be likely nt players/candidates and that would cripple their usefulness for national teams because of the uncertainit of their fate. Ii said one game rental but the financial update is really what would matter.

Of course if they would be real bargains their market value would rise up and it could become similar to lvl7 trainer race except, maybe not wise in long term except it would affect an important game directly. However it would give an extra option/choice of poison to timespenders of this game over less frequently logging players which bb stated they don't want. This is hopefully unprobable scenario but yes I would support that team should pay salary to every player which played/was on roster during the last week with exception of the first week of season till unwanted draftees would be gone.

Scuse me. I've done all you have and I've done it through smart drafting, training and rookie acquisition on the TL - and all my players are domestic. Why shouldn't my extra foresight be rewarded over yours?

edit: apart from the token jock, my countrymen are useless trainers of PGs! Either that, or they are smart and keep them ;-)

Was this forsight an economic strategy in anticipation of a rule change or just National Pride?

To me Plotts brings the same argument as those opposed to specific SF training.
If you plan a long term strategy based on the rules as they are, it is a bit unfair to those employing that strategy when a new rule comes in that changes the impact of that strategy.

20% seems very high, but fortunately that number seems in no way official and speculative of how the particulars of this rule change will actually turn out.

Extra foresight? So you saw this rule change coming did you?

Please enlighten me as to the day and time of this Nostradamus like realization. Were you taking a dump reading Vanity Fair? Or were you at a Red Sox game trying to avoid the weird sounds and smells coming from the bathroom when you realized you should keep your team strictly domestic because of the upcoming payroll break?

Changes will happen in the game, I am fine with that, but I still think 20% is a bit much, and personally I would have liked this to start in Season 11. That is my stance on this tpoic. Hey, I'm just one guy, one devilishly handsome, barrel-chested freedom fighter who'd like to voice his opinion over a civilized discussion and perhaps some bacon. So, you are "scused" good sir.

Yes, Heath my good man, it is just speculation, but I would hope all these red flags would prompt the BBs to keep it at 10%.

Guy,

So is this your second go at BB or did you have the "foresight" to make your name 'BAN -/Juiced' before you knew who Juice even was?

It was about half-way thru season 5 when I realized these guys were serious about maintaining a stable economy and started to think about options available to them.

I liked the BAN - JuicePats moniker so much I changed my own in tribute. Deep down In the fluff of my sneakers tho' I'll forever be the four-sighted genius that is Elmacca.

That sounds like something you'd say to a Millwall fan.
