Not all cocky, but perhaps completely crazy :)

Looks like there are several teams that plan to take a run at the top, which should make for an interesting season.

I wanted to be secretive, but I'm sorta prepared to waste/lose 15-25m assets beginning next season over just 2 seasons. I am unsure of the average weekly salary on that, but it's very possible the 3 best teams in all of BB will be in Naismith if we do each go all-in.

I can't make guarantees after last season's B3 winner won his 5 elimination games by a combined 21 pts (first three by 5 combined pts) though. Dude had a 7 man rotation better than Canada NT with other quality guys sprinkled in and could've lost several games. I'm also not doing GS training so won't get HCA over conference or league. I'm also pretty sure my minimum 21m is less than you and beanerz have, so, while unlikely, it's always possible you could just out-gun me with money too.

Anyway, I suppose I'd be up for coordinating major B3 runs if you guys want. No big deal if not. Since the introduction of GDP my love of BB has gone to a 0.00 so I don't care if I wasted my money and failed anymore.

I would be down for coordinating B3 runs, but my team is set to peak in 2 seasons, so not sure how flexible my team can be because I really wanted to be in B3 at that point. My window is when Hernandez and Kaimakis will be finishing their training and the window closes as Sammons hits age 33. Why don't you put in some money this season, and take a run to get into B3 next season? I wish there was a way to set up bb-mail between 3 managers.

And I don't have $20+mil in the bank, not even close, but I do have a large training exemption and some great pieces already in play. I should be substantially better than any of the previous 3 B3 winners when I'm set to compete in that tournament. I would hate to see 3 of the best teams in BB in Naismith, would just make it that much more difficult for us to win.

20m? Yikes.

I have lots of money but not 20m. And honestly I am not going to run my team at a deficit or sacrifice training. I realize both these things are crucial to truly compete at the BB level.

Personally I am ok with coordinating BB runs if needed. My team is still a few years away from being a true power. Jarvis needs at least two more full seasons to become elite.

20 million? I almost have that. Just subtract 2 zeros from the end :D (who cares about zeros anyway :d )

Distinction: Not 20m cash. 21m+ in total players/cash, which is not even close to an amount that I'd feel confident winning a Naismith season + subsequent B3 tourney. Fully willing to waste as much of that money as I can in one potential B3 run, though. You guys probably aren't so uncaring.

The 3 players I'd look to keep (Damjanac/Faletoese/Ruxleben) for a run are fundamentally broken so I will definitely consider holding off on competing next season but I'd really prefer not to as of now. Bleh.

Well, to be fair I think I built my team starting from 8 millions and only Bradshaw (or something close to that). You can build a BBB team for 10-12 million surely starting from nothing. Then you probably need 2 million or so per season for paying overestimation tax though :D

I have no clue what my team is worth currently but it must be at least 15million. That is if I sold everyone off, but that is a horrible Plan in the current BB.

My bank roll is pretty large so if I decided to go all in it would a heck of a battle. Almost considering it just for the fun involved. It would then either lead to quitting the game because of bankruptcy or demoting and saving up for another run.

I'm planning to eat into all of my cash reserves when I'm in B3. And with my training exemption, I'm hoping not to pay OET either; although that depends on how I can round out my roster. I've really been planning for the last 6-7 seasons, so I'm hopeful I've planned well enough (and catch enough breaks), that I can pull this through.

Man - just reading what you guys are strategizing makes me feel like a fly in the NORAD command room. You guys are planning world domination and I just want to survive relegation. Sheesh!! I still have a long way to go on that ladder with a few rungs missing on the way up. All I can say I kick ass!!
