I could've splurged all my cash and probably been the best team in the league this season, but I spent it on training instead... will take me 3 or 4 seasons to probably properly compete for the league and then a few more to hopefully become a top BB team, which was my goal here. So, I guess the sacrifice right now is worth it. Olof actually wasnt in my budget at all, his salary is eating up cash i could be earning... (plus i dont think he's worth 264k of salary anyway, but he is a beast) I'm just gonna train and save ;) if you're still around in the future you can see my beastly team ;p

it's surprising but BB takes a lot of patience (that i don't have, i'm more of a results now type of person), but if you look at most of the top teams... they have a lot of seasons under their belt building up a foundation.
I just need to find a balance between building that foundation and being competitive enough to continue making money... because losses=less fans

Oh and Olof hopefully makes All Star team for me.. he's only played a few league games but we'll see.

I am not sure if I mentioned it, though I feel I have, but my end goal is to have a competitive, homegrown, all-Bajan team. Not sure if that is possible now I'm winning and more people are in the league than before leaving me nothing but bad luck in the draft. This is sounding very familiar...

BB competition really doesn't interest me. I hate doing the same things every one else does usually and it seems people only use certain strategies, tactics or training methods. I do things my own way so I accept I may never be truly competitive.

Oh the other goal is to get to the 10mil mark so I never truly have to worry about money then. I'm sure I'll get that soon. Even with prices going up and me buying old and increasingly more expensive dudes money isn't so hard to earn since my I finished building my arena. Maybe I'll start the trading game just to get the achievements when I get there.

woah... Drachen Toter's giving me a really close game here. I guess he bought and i didnt notice... too lazy to check :D

82-79 after 3 quarters.

and yep you told me that... Deon Johns and Maurice (NT players) were on sale at the beginning of the season... they solid for like 5-6mil combined. Should've grabbed one ;p

it would deffo be tough with the smaller talent pool in barbados and the fact that you dont have a high draft pick.

as for tactics... yep, Look Inside is the main way to go. But you can vary a bit. If i have any prolonged success i'll probably at some point start messing around and experimenting with different stuff.

Also another note, Knowledge's last login date:

16 days... takes 6 weeks (42 days) to go bot, so he's still far from that, but imagine losing the 2 biggest teams from Barbados in 2 seasons.

swag
it is good to see my brother challenging you, that completion is good for the league

also about knowledge, that would. be sort of bad to lose the two top teams in the country so quick who were close to three digit world rankings

Aww... Well as expected, Vilalonga did not make it to the 3pt Shootout so he was not able to defend his title and my trainee was not up to the task of filling his shoes.

I figured that would happen. Starting 5 is normally split between me and him but my weaker players were playing more minutes than usual so I wouldn't have to worry about figuring out the rotations when big games were coming up or for the cup to keep up with training.

If you look at the box score you'll see at least two of my men still got more minutes.
