Nice! We'll see if that gets us auto-promoted. I'm not sure how many extra d2 openings there are.

Didn't win my game how I was planning tonight, but I'll take it. Free throws at the buzzer. Got payback for that similar loss a few games ago.

On the other side, Pony Express with an overtime win against the 4 seed. And the Wolverines win at home too.

Tough matchup between Balls of Steel and Baker Street, but Balls wins it on the road. I'm not sure why Baker Street decided to "crunch time" the last game before the playoffs, but that enthusiasm hit must have made a difference. With the sale of Montallana and Uts, is this the beginning of a rebuild?

the only thing I can think of regarding Baker street playing CT was maybe trying to get to number one by point differential ??? )so they would not be placed against Balls of Steel ?? :)

Well it looks like my time in III.10 is coming to an end. I though I had enough to avoid relegation and stay up, but alas, D4 is calling. One of my main trainees will probably have to go, along with my C.

I just don't know if it is worth the hassle anymore.

Good luck to the rest of you trying to fight your way out of III.10. In my 50 season in this game, this has been the biggest challenge of promotion without bankruptcy.

Pro tip: Optimize your arena prices. Looks like you spent the season with your bleachers only 2/3 full because the ticket prices were too high.

You should be selling out (or close to it) just about every game. Low ticket sales will put you at an economic disadvantage, and BB is an economy game at the end of the day. You can compete if you have the finances to support it.

DIV is anything but quick easy money. You have to dump quality trainees because you will not make enough to cover.
Dwelling in III relegation is the easy way to make money. My plan was to skirt relegation this season to be able to afford a shiny new SF and PF to make the push next season. I guess I could have bought those players to avoid relegation, but I didn't and I am now paying the price.

Your 100% right. In a normal season I would have been on that. This season I just set my lineup every week to insure training mins and called it a day. Its my own fault. Next season I need to maximize every $$ just to make sure I can afford to keep my 2 trainees.

And just to keep it above board, I did not intend to tank and drop down this season. Gone are the days of the profitable tank. You used to be able to run a 10k roster out there, lose all 22, bank 10 mil over the season, get the first pick, draft 2-3 5* A+ A+, sell them for 5-8 mil each, load back up, train 6 players for the season, sell off 3 for another 5 mil, and be back twice as strong with a huge bankroll. As I said in my last post, the drop down causes more financial heartache then sitting in current relegation. I really wanted to promote out of this league, it would have been an accomplishment.
