Royal Canin (90510)
Last seasons achievement: promotion from II.3 (after a very special PO series their)
salary: 471 120$ for 9 players
Information: much to the surprize of many people, Royal Canin beat all odds by promoting instead of Dossers or Bavi Vilvoorde, who were the season 19 favorites in II.3 However, it's pretty clear that the team wasn't ready to play in the BBBL yet, so Bradok is going to try and learn as much as possible this season while saving up alot of cash, so that he can rebuild a solid team to come back into the distant futur. Never the less, congratulations to Rayol Canin. This season should be a good experience for RC, who will know what it takes to play in the BBBL when they go back down to II next season.
prognosis Battle with Radiation to avoid the last spot. Advantage RC considering that Radiation is selling their entire team.

the mumu boys (89926)
Last seasons achievement: 5th
salary: 711 324$ for 16 players
Information: Last season, Mumu had a rought start, but ended up on the 5th spot, just missing out on the PO's due to a loss against the already certain to be relegated Suns. However, before that last game, Mumu had the 3rd seed and was looking BBBL PO bound for the first time in their history. Will they be able to take part in their first BBBL PO's this season? With international Oli Georgiev, allong side with Modesto Gross, they should once again be an inside force to be reckoned with. However, with only 1 strong guard, will their inside be able to make up for their seemingly sloppy outside defense?
prognosis Battling for 4th spot. Might slip to 5th, depending on how Ventola rebuilds his team

The Radiations (37408)
Last seasons achievement: Losing Po finalist against Vottem Cowboys, after finishing second in Big 8 and eliminating Seatle SuperSonics in the conference finals
salary: 474 808$ for 11 players
Information: Just like RC, Radiation is in the BBBL for the first team. However, considering that they are attempting to sell their entire team, it's hard to forsee what their real intensions are. Most likely, they'll be going back to II with a large ammount of cash. Let us just hope that they don't end up with a salary below the salary floor, since that would be a waste of cash. However, their might be a slight chance that they will retool to put up a fight to stay in the BBBL. Consiering how strong Great 8 conference is, they should try and steer clear of the regulations games, which is going to be an incredible hard thing to do. Never the less, congratulations on joining the big boy's and let us hope that you'll learn a lot during your stay.
prognosis battling with RC to avoid direct regulation. Advantage RC since radiation is selling of their entire team.

Ventola (89684)
Last seasons achievement: 1rst spot, vice-champion
salary: 494 613$ for 14 players
Information: It's pretty clear that Jonas is rebuilding his team. He's trying to add Belgian talent to his roster for the longterm plan. However, he'll have to face concurrention from the Angels aswell as Obira, who still are trying to recrute their own belgium player! Anyhow, he has held onto Frank Terrible aswell as De Piano and Manuel Irarrázaval so Ventola still remains a team to be reckoned with!
prognosis 5th seed

Their it is guy's. The season 20 preview. I'd like to remind everyone that if you disagree with what i wrote, then prove me wrong with your results. The preview is based upon data at the start of season 20. Economical wealth, injuries, etc are not accounted for when making this preview, so their is a very high chance that i'll be mistaken on a couple of things. But that is what makes the game fun. Because it's unpredictable. It would be pretty boring if we already knew for certain who would be champ before the season started, now wouldn't it? Also, if anyone is offended by whatever is written here, send me a BB-mail with what you consider to be offensif and i'll change it ( or erase that content). please know that it was not my intention to offend any of you. I wish everyone the best of luck during this 20th season of BB, but most importantly, remember this: Whatever happens, keep smilling and enjoy the game. It doesn't matter if you come in first or last, aslong as you are enjoying the game!

Thanks for the summary Revo. i miss it still you left D2.

I just have one or two comments regarding our division... I have already sold all my players so I would say adavantage to Radiations for the 7th spot... And it seems that Ventola is rebuilding its entire team as well so i would say that he would finished 6th.

My Bet :

Amenra Vottem
Boes Mizu
Mumu Seattle
Liege StoneStar
Obira Popotam
Ventola Estrella
Radiation Falco
RC AA

Hey I was the last one not to mention where he lives; it is because I was away for a while and just catcing up with all my games (hattrick, cycling manager, freekick and I started Charazay BB manager !) Not advertising here, because Buzze Beater is still my first love and the best.
And now my place of living : Grimbergen, so I am the only representative of the center of Belgium it seems.
Good luck to all. My start is not overwhelming but I have no ambitions.

I'm disappointed you didn't reply to my message (here: (217639.24)) and you had said you would explain your "test" of our last NT scrimmage. So what have you learned in that famous game, where Ottevaere, Lussu and reyngoudt have played resp. 10, 10 and 2 mins, where Biermans (who is much stronger than these last 3 players) didn't play once again and against a team who played with only 6 players and 4 C in the starting-five (very useful to make a test)? Can you also explain me why Loddo has played and why Fleeton was not used (or maybe the answer of this last question is that Fleeton is not in your team anymore...)?

I try to understand your choices but it's not easy and I think that the last two scrimmages are shameful.



Sorry, didn't get to that. As you all know, i've got other duties on BB aswell, and i'm currently trying to untangle a pretty rough GM case.

As for the test:

*) Biermans didn't play, because he's injured (injured himself on saterday). Though luck their
*) PG's Vercaigne and Reyngoudt confirmed something that we were suspecting all allong, and something which i'll be discussing with Angi ( and Laur3ns) to see if it can be incorporated for guard training in the U21.
*) due to the line up of Eesti ( Playing with 4 C's) the results on SG and SF are not worth alot, so i can't make any conclusions their. However, i'm pretty pleased with the performance of Sammy Backaert. I wasn't expecting his opponent to completely destroy him, considering we were putting up an SF against a C with IS 17 ID 20 RB 17.

The whole goal of the experiment, was to see if i could balance out an attack in patient if i fielded as many rounded players as possible. I was wondering if it might be possible to take a bigger advantange of the mismatches, but considering that Vercaigne shot half of the attempts ( or nearly half of them) it shows that for patient, Mismatches don't seem as important to determine wheither a player will shoot, but what is more important, is the ammount of driving a player has... ( after the competitive season, i'll field up a line up with a max of driving, and see how that pans out.)

As for your question about Fleeton:
I went with Loddo as last guy, because he's a more rounded player than Fleeton. I went with a max or rounded players. Only not rounded player to be around was Biermans, who was left out due to injury. As you should know, when i played scrimmages i didn't always field Fleeton, even when he was with my team.

What i find pretty dissapointing, is that i was online monday the entire afternoon till 6PM, and tuesday during game time, and you didn't pop up for a chat. Kinda shows me you still harbor grudge feelings because of one game. With you calling me out here, just confirms that idea. The more i look at things, the more i'm seeing a manager who's still angry over one game, and theirfor has decided to question every move that i make. Well, if that is what you want to do, then go ahead. Just don't expect me to answer every question right away. I've got other BB duties aswell ( I'm combining LA and GM duties). But i will answer any question you desire, providing that you ain't asking any skillsets of any players.

You might not like the first scrimmage due to the GS shapes, and that was a mistake of mine, i've said it before, and i'll say it again: my bad for that scrimmage.

Nice victory for you, but why did you go so hard on Malich ? I have no other point guard :-)
And contrary to what you think, I have no other ambition than training this year. Georgiev is completed, now time for Gross and I am training inside skills for Oostvogels, who can maybe make it to NT as as SG. Although training him last year was disappointing, because his height does not fit inside training really.
