I think u only get one chance to win it in every 3 seasons
The amount of capital $$$ u have to burn is insane
I think YUCk had a 590k payroll
I had a 530k
My economy only supports 500k max to break even


Yes, 590K was the roster for the last few weeks. Looking back on it, I still can't put a dollar figure on the cost of promotion. The ever tinkering with player builds, then suddenly realizing it was kind of working and then going for it. Losing money on transactions trying to find the right fits. No home game one of the final weeks. Losing to hrudey in a road game before my last home game, which established a lower than expected baseline attendance figure. This figure is used to generate your revenue and tax if applicable. Being 40k less for the rest of the season and playoffs cost me an additional 100k in taxes over that stretch, plus the money I was losing. If I had to guess, i burned a couple 1.5 million. Expensive trophy on the league page.

I got lucky winning in the finals.

BHT players kept getting injured.

I can't see myself being in this league for long.

I don't have the money to buy the players i want.

so all probably be buying alot of scouting points and putting alot of money into my arena this year.

They are. I would love to see a Dutch/German Final. That would be exciting.

I will say Germany isn't quite this good. Thiago Silva and Neymar would have helped control the mid field a little better for Brazil. Confidence was probably fragile as well missing those guys. They were probably doomed from the start. Brazil was the pre-tourney favorite, but they looked a little shaky in round robin play.

Well getting a good draft pick to build your team around is always a decent idea and I'm sure you want to finish the arena. You have a lot of money wrapped up in your current roster being that they are quite young and marketable. Personally I gradually sold off all my starters last season for younger replacements...but it was a challenge, especially when the injury bug hit. Was my worst season thus far for injuries.

Will you be aiming to finish 8th then? Or trying to still be competitive?

I hate that Robben guy though. So am hoping Argentina wins tomorrow.

I like him. He explodes when he has possession of the ball. It appears as if he doesnt lose speed. He always has another gear. A bit of an actor however.

Yeah, that's what I don't like. For me it overrides everything else.

I wish Mexico & their fat awesome coach would've advanced instead.

All try to be competitive right off the bat.

After that, all see how things look.

So basically you're saying that you'll beat me, then maybe tank the rest of the season? Not sure I like that...
How about you intentionally lose to me, then be competitive? I'd like that more. TIA.
