Welcome to all the new teams. We will be competitive, but still do not have the money or studs we need to go to Div. III yet.

It seems like the draft has gotten harder or something... I spent 20-30k a week, and got fairly likewise. One or two might make fringe.

I'm at the peak of my optimized period... all my stars are mid 20s, and income is just starting to decline to near 0. But it hasn't been nearly good enough the past couple years. If you're weak, maybe this actually is indeed my chance to hit the title game at least, and then hope for a good outcome.

Anyways, no problem. I found similar threads in a league from one of our old IV.22 members who moved up, and thought it might be good to have here.

Hope your season is a bright one :-)

Is it just me, or are the rivals messed up? In our conference, two teams have Oakley, two have Orlando, and two have Springfield as rivals. (Nobody has me as a rival)
Is this normal?

Interesting you'd notice that, I just had late last season. I think I had 3 last year if I remember correctly.

I don't know, I think it fits with teams who have been around a while and developed matchups. Me and Oakley have played for 4 straight years in the playoffs, and I also (though I may be biased) do see us as having one of the stronger rivalries too Rebs.
A poll of the other division shows 2 Illini, 2 Bucks, 2 Darts.
I tend to think it sets teams that have been around a while in the league and fairly evenly matched to yours as your rival. Playoff matchups probably help too.

Honestly, is it such a bad thing that no one has a rival???
You don't get quite as many teams gunning for you... on the road... :-)

Yeah, I would prefer nobody has me as a rival :) but it seems kinda unfair?

Well you're holding your own these days, it'll be interesting to see how things evolve down there, especially with Hornets just making a buy.

I'm more perplexed/interested in the Cup games. Either our league is abnormally good, or we have a strange run of "luck". You got the Illini axe this year... after I did last year. And now Rebels and FC meet this week!?! Craziness.
But I'm glad at least to note that I have a good shot of finally making it beyond round 4 again for the first time in a while.
I'll probably draw Illini again next round :-p

yeah now that ive played everyone in my conference once im glad to see where i stand isnt as bleak as it seemed at first
i had a really tough early schedule and am now looking forward to testing the other conference getting to play what seems to be a good even match with springfield five

i think my team should be good enough to not get relegated but it will be some time untill i can compete in the playoffs with you guys

Holy moly... looks like you met the ax like the others in the Springfield game (wondering if you represent the same or different SGFs!).

Our division somehow 6-1 in the first set of interconference games???

We got obliterated last year, something like only 20-30% wins... I'm really impressed/stunned we came out so strong. First time in forever I really feel like we're competitive!

Looking forward to a fun year now that I know we REALLY ARE in the mix :-)
Particularly impressed by Wolfpack and Death Valley.
It may just be an indication of how tough the Big 8 is, that they are coming in overworked... and I guess I'm behind the division after only beating #8... but I'm excited :-)

yeah i saw that too, i knew he had me outmatched in player skills was just hoping with his injury issue and my high gs i could pull one out on him, but it was a fun one to watch, his sg i think just light me up all ngiht, but i was pleased that my rebounding kept it that close
