That happens more when you're in the NBBA. Or so I'm told.

I have to say that the NBBA is the most competitive league but my players really out-performed my expectation. I thought I was gonna be 0-4 by now.

Oh wow, I lead II.4 in achievements! And can play 52 pickup with basketball players instead of cards! (sadly that's worth 0 points). It's all downhill from here...





I just noticed that my merchandise the past three weeks is higher than it's ever been. Apparently, having only two guys above 10k salaries on your entire roster, and having both of them be 15 season veterans of your club, is highly enticing to fans even as the team swirls around the toilet.

This is because American toilets are the best toilets in the world.

P.s. why does shikago have so many players.

Maybe the bump in merchandise is from having drafted the league's leading scorer? (19248344) (Michael Wray) Plus let face it, your fan-base is notoriously xenophobic, so the all-american roster undoubtedly helps.

Michael Wray is a nice story though. A 33 year old who has averaged under 10 ppg for his career. Now he's suddenly the 27% sharpshooting face of D II.4! Leading all of D2 in scoring & 5th in the entire country in FG attempts.


Speaking of weird fan behavior, my Utopia team finished 5th last season with a positive PD. This season... have thrown 5 of 6 league games, & am dead last in PD. Guess which season fans are happier with? (hint, it's not last season)

The Wrath of Wray is a furious sight to behold.

I have to give a lot of credit to my coaching staff, who managed to corral his inner Iverson for so long. Now that we're in full-on 76er mode, though, it's his time to play and he's making up for lost time. I still hope that he gets to at least set a league record for points in a game some time this season, though it would have been easier last season with three games against essentially bots.

Oh, you.

They've been happier this season in every single fan survey. So it's not a fluke.
My Utopia fans are basically as happy as my regular fans were after finishing 21-1, & sweeping the playoffs. (within half a ball)

How does a bot team with a center at PG score 93 points on me in 3 quarters?
The Clogs, using much worse players, held their opponent to 41 points over first 36 minutes.

My worst active player (DMI under 5k) had to come in and score 16 points in 11 minutes to save me from losing. He wasn't supposed to even play until the game was long decided.
