Lose only by 12 on the road playing with less enthusiasm, a partial roster, and fouls being 24-7 against? I guess that isn't all bad. Probably should have just tanked it totally, but oh well.

Don't tank it totally as someone else might have the same thought...LOL
Anyway, I wanna stay exactly where I'm at by the end of the season!

Geez, no tankers allowed, cmon! Make it fun for the whole league :(

I'm not tanking the season, hell no. Just should have played that game smarter since I don't really have a roster yet.

I was actually pointing my finger at Gforce, but its good to know you'll be competing as well!

In response to this, we're changing the end-of-season distribution of finances: Starting this season, instead of paying no player salaries, teams in fifth place will be required to pay 50% of player salaries for the first playoff week. In addition, as an incentive for third and fourth place teams, playoff attendance revenue will be split 50-50 between the two teams instead of 67-33 in favor of the home team.

Ahaha. You done sir! :D

well then, aiming for 4th or 6th or even 7th then AHA!

It sounds to me that the fifth place teams would be unfairly penalized. They don’t receive any attendance revenue from playoffs or relegation series and still have to pay 50% salaries? If anything the 2 fifth place teams should play against each other for some gate receipts.

Tough has 3,000 – 5,000 posts in 3 seasons? His posts are okay? Is there anybody on Buzzerbeater that can approach those numbers? His IV.29 had 307 posts last season compared to 225 posts here. If you are referring to his bad language in the BB USA Forum yesterday on “The Eagle” then it is not okay.

Unfortunately I just read on “The Eagle” that the future of Tough as a GM will be decided at a hearing before the BB Players Association Player Mistreatment Committee.

If you haven’t done recaps for several seasons you don’t really know how much time and effort goes into them. My D4 league needed a boost to get them motivated. This league already has 85 posts this season while my D4 league has 8.

Buzzerbeater does not give us enough stats for our information. Many good stats are available for each league on Buzzer-manager.com. You don’t need to be a Supporter but you need an access key that you can set up under Preferences. This season they added arena size. As a stat freak I find this information useful.

If I had not received a bot-promotion you would have had an easy victory. You were very short handed in the front court and could have used your new PF. As to the large discrepancy in fouls it could be that you were more aggressive on defense. You did have more field goal attempts 94-77. I shot too many 3-pointers especially since you did not have a good PF available for the game.

You’ll get your revenge in your enormous arena. My attendance was terrible because I set some of my arena prices too high thinking that everything goes up in D3 and not down.

There are games that we are not going to win so we can save our best lineups for the next game while building up enthusiasm.

No recaps today but it looks like several teams played TIE on opening day. Be sure to play TIE against me. I am not going to ruin my season by playing crunch unless I am desperate.

For now I am just enlarging my arena, hoping to win a few cup games, and staying out of last place. My D4 roster will probably not be upgraded any time soon unless I get hit with an injury bug.

I have a draft pick with MVP potential that I might keep but he not good enough to play at all in this league.
