That $145K salary needs to go! I picked him up last season when I moved up to D.II; pretty sure that he'll destroy my economy this season if I keep him :-/

And the "all American" thing is also economic: evidence indicates that you get a bump in merchandise revenue if all the players are from the home country :-)

Whoa, I found people!

Greetings new and old friends. I have been playing since Season 3 and looks like some of you have been here for a while as well. Hello Windy City Heroes, this will be our 10th season together :) Super Stars... o_O looks like we've been playing against each other in seasons 10 - 13. That's quite a while ago.

This looks like a fun league to be in. Unfortunately, I probably won't stick around for too long because my team is just not competitive (I was in a weak div IV and lucked out in the playoffs). My current team is made up of my own draftees only, no purchased players allowed. I forgot to set draft picks for the past two seasons so I don't have any good picks to train... I'm looking forward to get one this season for sure :)

Good Luck to you all!

Why are you unable to purchase new players?

It is just a restriction I put on myself :) makes things more interesting for me
I like the idea of long term planning and seeing players grow. It would really help if I wouldn't forget to scout players though...

Much respect, Foreigners, for your home grown team! I'm sure you'll put together a run, you always do.

With 7 new teams in the league, there is no telling what to expect. It looks like Blue side will be pretty competitive. I don't see any really bad teams in the bunch. But nothing like BNH rolling to the title like last year. Should be really frustrating.

I'd put a bid on your big guy, but that stamina is yuck and poo. Always makes me sad when I see really good players with low stamina. And that's a weird history. He doubled his salary from season 51-52. Must have had a really good agent.

Best of luck to everyone except when you are playing me. Then I hope you get Scott Foster and Tony Brothers as refs

Pretty good opening round. Several close games. Only a couple blowouts. Seems much more competitive than last season.

We won a game we had no business winning. HCS had a player injured and another fouled out. Took a miracle 3 from my PG at the end. One of those no-no-no-no-no-no-YES shots.HCS has the better team, so we'll take a lucky win.

I'm so sorry that the U-21 managers can't seem to decide if they want their players or not. Hopefully they figure it out and stop spamming our news thread (I assume their constant adding/dropping shows up for yall too)

It's kind of annoying, but I understand where they are coming from.

There are a ton of players out there and they don't get a lot of help from people like us. They are trying to form squads of 15-20 players and you have to keep track of them. And all it takes is one doofus like me to screw everything up.

I've had my run-ins with U21 NT managers, but I respect what they are trying to do. It's kind of annoying, but necessary.
