Matt brilliant post so +1 to you.

Vios tough luck you really haven't had much of a break recently, well except for broken bones.

Lordy is a friend of mine and a top guy, while I don't think anyone thinks it should be allowed, it currently is so he is just playing within the rules as he did in the very funny example with tremell. I have to admit I have been at the end of some very nasty games where things got completly out of hand because there was no clock and people had to foul HARD to get a chance to get back.

Looks like it didn't work for Lordy but at least he will be able to train in peace in division III.

Yes, whichever division III gets Da Fat Boy Slim will instead get an extra division III promotee. Skyhook Dreamers won the bot promotion race.

I even have the inside goss on the relegating ABBL teams. Baxter Bogans will be the worst, they have a fortune and plan to go 22-0 and bounce right back. They were at the salary floor all season and have the money, will and expertise to do it. Second worst would be hopelessly addicted, they have also been at the salary floor all season but spent a fortune on trainees and may be planning to train for a season, but they may do it while going for promotion, they certainly are rich. Best is probably the Goldfish, he has a great roster and only missed out on 5th in the last game of the season but he has been competing and probably has a lot less in the bank than the other two. But none are good. Fingers crossed for Datzilla!

Tough luck mate, tried to sneak in and buy a championship a week before the playoffs hey? ;)

I'm thinking your current salaries aren't really sustainable? Looks like ~$525k for the week?

Well that's me done. I've spat the chewie and put all my starters up on the TL. I also fired most of my bench players, Doc and PR, keeping only my trainer.

Last season was tough to swallow but this has just iced the cake and my frustration levels hit a massive high. Last season I got rolled by the late buy in team, this season I got suckered in last minute as buy in team and got legged in the attempt. Yes I probably could have played to game 3 but this was the cyber version of me grabbing everything in reach and throwing it across the room in an fit of rage. It's just how I roll yo!

Next season I am outright tanking, with only enough wage cost to hold my floor salary, to relegate back to Div III, where I plan to regroup or fade into obscurity (undecided).

This will allow me to continue to train my two guards and hopefully regain the passion to strive for ABBL glory once more.

P.S. you may also notice my name change from ViOlator to ViOlated... Just how i'm feeling right now. Had I figured out how to change my team name, it would now be "The Violated". :-P
