Yeah this season is pretty quiet in here, we have so few active managers, maybe 4 or 5. there are a couple guys who log in 2 or 3 times a month, but that is not active. Buying one veteran to push you over the top in a close race might be ok, but that money is basically lost, no return on investment. We have had teams fill their roster with 35+ players because they are cheap, then they get in the playoffs and their players have dropped in skill and they are getting worse every week.

I also started a long time ago, played from season 6 to about 20, then got too busy. Came back 2 seasons ago.

I'm on every other day or so. Usually in Div that's my activity level. Diii and higher I'm on every day scouting and game planning. I've been here since season 1. Although I lost my original team, this is my second one and one of my friends (a BB) changed my team name back to my original. So that's nice. Mostly I'm not worried about promoting. I'm in it for the revenue, build cash and develop young talent. Right now I'm on course for 3 60k+ salary centers, and I can't afford them here. Probably will sell, make a good chunk of change next season and restart. Sitting on 2 mil with all new exceptional staff, can't complain.

Good luck the rest of the way fellas.

Yeah, I thought your team name was familiar. My original name was Heathcoat, and my team name was Heathcoatmen. I made it as far as DII and got to the conference finals back in the day.

Yeah I actually started toward end of season 2, stayed in D.II for a while. Eventually ranked as high as 34th in the cup. I had some good teams back then. The reason I lost my original was because I operated multiple teams. Not for cheating purposes but just because I couldn't get enough with just one team. Haha! Had about 6-8 teams up in D.III or higher, usually multiple in the same league. I learned my lesson though lol. Going back and looking over it, I'm not sure how you recognize my name? We weren't ever in the same league.

Well, I am not sure how I recognize your team name, but I know I used to post in the forums a lot, both the global and the USA forums. pretty much daily back then. Maybe that was it. Or maybe all of that weed I used to smoke in my youth has me imagining things, lol.

I stayed away from global chat, possible we met in the cup at one point. Or just browsing the d.2 leagues passed over my name. Who knows.

Yeah, perhaps. I don't know where or even if I had seen your team name before. It just seemed familiar.
