Season 37 of BB is about to get underway - hello to everyone here in IV.9.

My Fiercekitties have been around for a while - was up in D.3 for several years and was thinking about retooling to make a push for the D.3 title. Got busy with life and ended up losing some games, combined with other teams actually retooling and making a run at the league title, caused my kitties to 1) end up in a relegation matchup and then 2) get relegated.

Will be retooling and hoping to promote back up to D.3. at some point over the next couple of seasons. Hope this is an active league going forward.

Good luck to all.

Winners win a close won at home over my Kitties - helped by an incredible 20 of 21 from the free throw line to give them the 2 point win. Making the Big 8 conference race much more interesting heading down the home stretch.

Let the playoffs begin!

Close game homercat. Somehow my Gomaret were able to pull it out over your kitties. What's weird is that the only shot Alume made all game was the game-winner. Your kitties were the class of the league the whole year, so I WAS NOT expecting it to go this way.

I am sure we will have more battles next season. I anticipate losing in the next round to Swamp Things.

Well that was a huge upset for the Kitties - losing by a point in the first round at home to a team I beat by about ten just last week on the road. Nice win by gomaret.

Good luck to whoever eventually wins the league title.

My money is on Swamp things now - I think they have been "talking it easy" in some recent games and will be able to put up some big points when they play "playoff crunchtime."

Shhh... So much for making a quiet playoff run. Looks like I have a bullseye on my back now. Maybe Gomarët can pull out another upset? It has been a great season so far. So I think the playoffs will be just as good. Good luck to everyone.

I think the Fiercekitties are going to be a handful once some of those young bigs develop. I need to promote, or I am going to have a salary issue with my young bigs. I wish they sold as well as young guards.

Totally called it on Swamp Things - they are going to roll to the league title. Knew they were laying low (doing some TIE during the season) only to turn it on with playoff crunch time all the way to the league title. Certainly hope they do promote up to D.3. so the rest of us don't have to face them next season.

And he is right about my Fiercekittes - I demoted down from D.3 last season as my team was aging - sold off my older bigs and am now working on a new set of bigs. Starting next season, they should really be rolling - spent this season fine tuning some of their secondary skills before I go hard on the primary skills. Plus I have ton of money in the bank from the earlier sale of my bigs. Looking to go back up to D3 and stay there.

Will be interested to see what the salary jump next season will be for players, as BB will adjust salaries upwards for guards with good inside skills and bigs with good secondary skills. There was a lot of hidden value in those two areas, and one did not have to pay for it in terms of extra player salary . . . until this upcoming season, that it.

I used to pay so much more attention to the game, but I forget to log in for days or even weeks nowadays!
Way back in the day, I actually drafted and trained two of the all-time top 10 scorers for the USA NT at one point (Joe Bronson and Martin Medrano) but that was when I worked a 45 hour a week cubicle job where I had hours to waste every day on the internet.

If I pay attention, this roster could actually be pretty amazing, I have a ton of talent, but I keep forgetting to keep up with it.

Well I guess this is goodbye. Moving on to DIV III. We will see how long I stay there. I wish everyone the best of luck next season.
