Dunno, man, MJ is currently 50+ and he probably still makes more money in one week with the shoes nike sells with his name than you and me will make in our entire lives.

+ he still can dunk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptzdaPJU4ZU

Maybe some see it as nonsense but if something like this turns them off enough to make them leave, then were they really going to stay in the first place? I see low risk high reward here.

That is a fair point, but there's something that I forgot to mention in the original post that will help clarify this. As we know, old people are much more injury prone than people in their 20's. We should make these contracts function so that if the old guy is injured, he will not pay any salary towards you. And injuries will be very common, something that can happen even if they don't play in a single game. Here's an example http://imgur.com/RnUbGKS

Notice how the injury lasts for 8 weeks. That means that for these 8 weeks, you are getting absolutely nothing out of him. Probably even considering selling him. It's just another realistic aspect to add to this system.

And another important note is that it would be very difficult to buy 100 of these players. There would be too much demand in the transfer list for them. No one has that kind of money, and no one will even if they are getting paid weekly.

This is completely true! However, endorsements are not being considered in the graph I displayed earlier.

That's great but I'd rather hear what your opinion is about the suggestion that I've made.

Right. Business minded. I like that about you.

I'll respond in gif form like adchester, I find it more fitting.

I appreciate the highly detailed response, as it gives me valuable feedback on a proposal that is meant to connect the community together while enhancing that state of this game.

However, there are a few things that remain unclear for me after reading your response, and I would like to gain clarity on these issues. First of all, after looking at that gif, I have came to the conclusion that the person featured in the gif is not you, and most likely not even someone that you would consider a friend or even an acquaintance. There are a few reasons that I have came to this conclusion, which I will list out for you.

Firstly, the person in the gif is a black male. You happen to be a white male. Or at least the last time that I talked with you, you claimed to be a white male. This is important because this could give some decent evidence towards moving to the conclusion that this person is not you. Now this brings up an interesting question. Is it possible to change your skin color from white to black? Well after some extensive research, it appears that this scenario is unlikely. Here's a source that I found that gives some great analysis towards this topic. https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=2006112801231...

So the best answer claims that this can be done through tanning. This is not a possibility, because Chekreyes is an avid Buzzerbeater player, and these kind of people do not go outside enough to tan. However another response claims that you can use dye for your skin, which is certainly possible, however it remains unlikely. I will take my chances and say that you did not dye your skin to look black for that gif.

Second of all, if you look closely you can see that there is a second person in the gif, who also appears to be excited. This person also is a white male, which fits the description for Chekreyes. So it seems possible that this person could be Chekreyes? No. Not at all. As I said before, Chekreyes is an avid Buzzerbeater player. This means that he does not have friends in real life and instead talks to people online about game shape and how his trainee popped from inept jump range to mediocre jump range. He would not be spending time with anybody in real life. So there goes another possibility.

And lastly, there remains a possibility that these people could be friends of Chekreyes. Yet, I stated earlier that Chekreyes only has friends on Buzzerbeater, and not in real life. So these people could only be other Buzzerbeater players. That's where the problem is. Every Buzzerbeater player is the same. None of us have friends in real life. All of us wake up in the morning to search the transfer list and then get disappointed when we remember that we have -$25,784 in the bank. This is what we do with our lives. We don't go out with friends and make gifs. This is a fraudulent gif.

As a result, I am unsure what your message truly means. That gif was supposed to capture your reaction, but instead I looked at the reaction of two random people that are surely getting excited over something else. Perhaps you made an error in your post, and you seem like a nice person, so I'm sure you'll help me clarify what you meant. However, I am extremely confused right now and would like to really know how you feel about my suggestion for BB.

Thanks.
