If i were you I would still be keeping your points, until D.II where you will probably have a top 6 pick. The luxury of being almost able to scout an entire draft is amazing though. You'll have such a sense of power.

Along with this topic... Sorry for the Big 8 sucking every year It is quite nice to be on this side, but is very unfortunate for everyone that gets stuck on that side for seasons on end. This is why I am still favor of the suggestion awhile back, where the league gets scrambled every year so maybe you, Sherlock, Anchorage, and some of the others don't have to draw the short end of the stick every season.

That hasn't worked out so well for me. I seem to be cursed to draft in the teens and... wait, is that a bad thing?

Wait a minute who is drawing the short end of the stick? All it takes is a crazy half brained plan of tanking your last couple games, risking demotion, to build up revenue to target injured and older players that get no love right before the playoffs the season before. Just so you can build up an elite team for as cheaply as one can possibly do it for a one shot championship push and it still puts you in a financial tough spot. But other than that, promoting from this side easy.

You just inspired me to try to jump you in the playoffs!

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

You will just further prove that I tend to bring the best out of others...

See: GM-Jason, S21&22, USA II.4

He's made that plan work masterfully and is now in a position to get an NBBA title the year after winning the cup. Admittedly though, he tanked the year before the BB's implemented the salary floor, which helped him a ton.

Not sure if this will be my last season or not. Just really losing any desire to grind anymore.

You mean you're tanking next season and rebuilding?

Well darn. Hopefully you'll find that passion. I hate losing managers that are friendly and active. You could always go the U21 NT and NT route where you just help train players. A couple people have done that when the game was beginning to get boring for them and they all have said it added more pleasure to BB.
