On hell. Lo! As crazy as it sounds, I'm thinking of getting rid of my superior trainer and going without a trainer, or have the minimum type. I'm hemorrhaging cash. Currently in the negative to around $350000. Need to start selling players and slash staff.

In my economy page I can see that the salary floor has changed and now it is: $ 638 050
Is that the new salary floor for the league from which I can calculate the cash I would get from the TV Contract? (Should be $260.429)

Edit: Got the eco update and the final value for the TV contract was set to $ 264 203. For this value the salary floor should have been $647 297, but I guess it's fine.

I think I've read somewhere that newly promoted teams have temporary boost in attendance. Idk if that's true. Is it?
Do they also have immunity after a defeat in the first few games of the season? I had a crushing defeat at home in the season oppener so I was wondering if anyone would show at the arena :D

I was promoted to a higher div after my first full season. Despite losing most of my games, I had pretty decent attendance, I don't think you should worry all that much.

My completely untested theory is that fans take defeats from much higher ranked teams fairly lightly.

You have attendance boost yes. More fans attend, for higher prices and are more benevolent if you loose. Even if you go 0-7 in the first stint, you won't get boycott or if you do it' compensated by the boost

Have there ever been a player with OD 20+, ID 20+, RB 20+ and SB 20+ ?

I doubt that, 20RB eats too much potential and it's not worth even ATG with having some other stats rather the ones you mentioned (simmed with rest on 8) would be capped... if you ignored RB you'd get way better player

I just wonder. Every tutorial I read is always the same: start 1v1 (handling for bigs + something else), intermediate training starts at 20 until 21, 22-X finish the product. I went to multiple National forums using google translate to see what is their recipe - no traditional cuisine. Most high level players look like a copycat (subtle differences). I have an impression that whenever I visit the Transfer list and search for 20 year old HOF with 80+ TSP (if available) I could randomly click and more often than not I would get the same product. That's fine, in modern basketball we see copycats all the time (it was Gregg Popovich's offense - every team started acquiring former Spurs staff members; It was Steve Kerr's Warriors offense - all started shooting threes). Let the tactical genius of the manager shine, I'm fine with that. But I was wondering. Then I went to buzzer-manager and started playing with the salary estimation tool. Salary-wise 20 OD, 20 ID, 20 RB, 20 SB with 150 overal TSP should be an affordable player for high level teams (250k salary). But the tool also suggested that Potential-wise it is impossible to get. I was thinking that the potential (salary) estimation tool was flawed and asked the question in the forum.
