not if you spent literal years making it what it is today. its hard to promote and be successful in this game. and even more difficult to remain successful when your economic plans are torn apart because of market changes.

So far, I'd say i have benefited from this deflation.

I got an 18 yr old player with Superstar Potential for $222,222.

Then I got this 31 yr old PF with Sensational IS and Tremendous Rebounding for $406,300. He's also got some great secondaries. Also his experience is great.

So overall I'm pretty happy :).

The market collapse has helped alot of teams, especially those in the lower divisions. I too have benefited from the cheaper transfer prices, but am in a position where I could never sell one of my trainees. So essentially I am locked into continuing to train what and who, as there is no point losing them for less than I think they are worth.

I cnsider the collapse normal as it is similar to something that could happen in pro sports. Can you imagine the NHL troubles if the exchange on the dollar got out of hand. Canadian teams in particular would be in huge trouble, but it would effect those at the top of the pay scale more than those at the bottom.

The BB's have a really tough job of trying to balance the economy and keep everyone happy. Long term I really think this adjustment is going to be good for BB. It evens the playing field in alot of ways and may help some new players hang around longer.

i lost quite a lot in this recession. Bough 80% of my roster 2 seasons ago, and now when I tried to sell one of those guys for 65% of what I paid for him, noone wanted to buy. i am pretty much stuck with what I have now

Yes, but once he is ready for the U21 team he will probably not be able to afford his salary. Well, unless he manages to promote.
