tinytaters sold a $100k player right after playing me. And now the Clogs buy a $100k player right before playing me...

Stop doing this Big 8!

just acquired Victor Thayer for $ 600 000.

+ an extra $130k to play a single game on Saturday.

Don't sleep on the Mammals though.

And don't feed the alligators.


Both excellent safety tips.

From what I have seen
U need to 500k roster to compete the the championship in this league
I look it as 0 operational income for a season
But the bonus at the end and increase revenue from promotion will make up for it

Well the Clogs had the most efficient roster per dollar going into the season considering they made the finals without a 100,000 player.

What stunned me was the Riverdogs last season. Massive salary to carry.
But selling a second round pick for 745,000!

Drafted as pick 29 of 48 by Dog River Riverdogs in the Season 25 Draft

Wow. And then to make/win the finals with so many injuries. Surprising really.

There is a lot of balance at the top. No clear favorite at least not yet. However the Clogs are certainly making headway.

And the Riverdogs were very lucky to win the whole thing...II.4 has been such a competitive league for as long as I remember. And of course I was there for every season but one from Season 7 through Season 26. This season should be a fun one for all of you in the League of Death:-)

I only bought him a day before playing you because he was listed four days before playing you.

It certainly wasn't ideal to have the listing close after the training update so I'm stuck with his impaired GS for a week. On the other hand, maybe if his closing time wasn't so awkward my bid wouldn't have held up - I was half expecting to have to do more bidding today to close the deal.

I did at one point earlier last season pick up a high salary guard, but it was a cheaper, older guy with a glaring hole so I could get him cheap, and I carried another ~35-45k guard most of the season as well. It just wasn't working, though - I didn't even keep Bustamente long enough for his GS to recover because I was getting hammered so much late in the season that I wrote off having a chance to promote, and I sold Hamby after another 6 foul game. But like the season before, I got back down to the core 9 man group that I've put together and things started breaking my way. Lord knows that my first round win was in no way deserved, just was fortunate that Mobile fouled out and the Pistons had no backup big man dressed.

I'm still only carrying the sixth-highest "top 5" salaries - but I did expand my lead in the 6th-10th salaries space significantly. I'm finally essentially done training the bigs as well, and I had the space to make the push, so it's as good a time as any.

Things could be worse though. You could be paying Otto Reedy 170,000 a week to play at Center [ :D]


Well, in full disclosure, once I'm out of the cup he will be the only thing keeping me close to the salary floor.

I think you should give your new guy & the rest of your starters the night off... let them go out on the town & build some chemistry. Play your scrubs vs. me instead!

I actually put it up to the team.

Their response:
"I don't want to wait, for the year to be over, I want to go and play the Lethargy.
I don't want to wait, for the year to be over, will we see dunks or will we see threes... by Yi."

I did neglect to thank you for the Karaoke machine you gave the team as a gift, complete with the CD of Paula Cole's Greatest Hit. I'm a bit frightened to see how the team is spending that much time with it, but I suppose I do have a roster that would rather be at Lilith Fair.

I thought patient offense would generate the best shot
It ended up with my sg jacking up 3s
