That sure was a tough loss for me…I was winning by 4 when Bernal got hurt (late in the 3rd), and then I lost by 14. I’m not saying I would have won, but it’s very frustrating to have an injury occur on an irreplaceable player at that critical time in the game. I’ve been burned so many times with injuries in the playoffs, it’s enough to drive me crazy. In my original mini-rant (216800.32), I didn’t mention the insanity of ramping-up injuries for the playoffs, but I’ve seen it over and over again, and I think it’s one of the dumbest aspects of this game.

Congrats to the Jests and Quakers! Both teams are excellent, and DII.3 will be represented well in the NBBA next season.

Did not expect to reach the finals in my first season in II, but I'm in kind of the peak part of my teams training cycle, so I'm glad we were able to do something before having to sell off to contain wages.

Injuries do suck though, and especially late in the season ones.

Eh it's easy to be mad knowing I at least had a decent shot at going to the NBBA for the first time ever but injuries happen. Could've happened to anyone. I'm looking forward to next seasons salaries btw since most my top salary guys are trainees lol
oh and sorry about Bernal btw whoever that was. On phone can't see.

Thanks, still quite in shock that we did a one and done in II and it wasn't in the direction of going down. Hopefully can survive longer this time in the NBBA than did last time though, but that was also back in like season 8.

Good luck for sure!

When did gingersnaps bot? I missed that. Going to have 5! new teams in the great 8.

And boy did that draft suck! I counted 3 18 year olds with 7 or higher pot (all 3 were 7) and two of those 3 were under 3k salary. There were no players at all over 7 pot. So glad I didn't spend anything on the draft.

Guess I picked the right first overall then. My 2nd and 3rd rounders were awful, but my top guy had pretty solid all around skills, no major weaknesses, and 7 potential.

Did alright a 5k 6 pot and a 4k 6 pot. Not bad for the 14th pick I guess haha. Especially in this draft

Huh. After 84 gazillion years I have actually managed to promote to II. I would also like to take this time to do my farewells as the chances of me not being relegated are about 0.0004%. Goodbye everybody! :)
