Appreciate it A-Dub. I wish I could have beaten your team throughout this rebuild once but sadly your guys were always a slight bit ahead (and a few years older) and I could never catch up to you in time to put up a real fight.

As far as the NBBA title this season, yeah it's gonna be quite the battle. How you managed to swing both a cup run and an NBBA run consistently is very impressive. I feel like the schedule blessed me several times this season and I'm still at 7 losses for the season.

The plan is to be up here for quite a while. This team has a good 3-4 seasons left after this one before I blow it up. I've still got quite a bit to work on and improve.

2x NBBA Champion: S55, S56. 3x USA Cup Champion: S54, S55, S56. WR for longest home streak ever at 11 in Season 47.

Thanks. Well, you got the first leg out of the way. That's a start.

There is a reason why it is difficult to win a single season double title victory: While some, like myself, may aim to win both titles there will always be managers that wisely prioritize one competition over the other knowing they'll need HCA to win a title against the stronger teams. That helps to level the playing field quite a bit and you need a strong team to be able to win on the road. That is what makes the double such a special accomplishment. The key is to win HCA while winning the CUP, but that's easier said than done. More than likely, you'll need to win on the road if you want to win back-to-back doubles, or more.

You have a chance to put yourself in rare company and win a double. It's going to be damn hard, though. Best of luck to you!

Well I'll be damned. Ice Man just CT'd the last game of the season and for his efforts he'll be rewarded a playoff birth on the road against your team. For you, that's what I call a first round gift. I dream of those.

Agreed. His priority was obviously to avoid relegation and it payed off.

Yup, didn't want to risk clawing my way back into NBBA. As you said, it was a landslide in the PO though. See you all again next year though!

I will take all the gifts I can get. I have sunk way too much of my financial power into this season to not get a gold.

It's gonna be a good close to this one. Both Menard and Oskak are 2 week and 1 week respectively. We've both lost crucial pieces to our teams moving forward...
