I would rather try and fail, than fail to try.


Classy quote. +1 ball for you there. I have to admit that I am only in the ABBL now because I decided to try and be more like Koop who always took a shot despite the short odds an until last season always had the luck go his way. But what he did do was roll the dice. For a couple of seasons in division II I had one of the top teams but wasn't willing to go all out to win. Season 17 and 19 I went all out. Training game shape, putting my self in a massive financial hole, doing everything possible to win games. It worked and now I am back in the ABBL. Mind you it looks like I am addicted to this rollercoaster ride but maybe in season 32 I will arrive in the ABBL with an unbeatable team.

i have to admit i was extremely close to going all out against Ranga in season 18. Almost purchased Ronny Borrel, or another high salaried big man. decided not to and ultimately paid the price for an ill-timed holiday and didnt get to challenge Ranga anyway.

I think this season i will go all out no matter what. either win or destroy my team in the process

Welcome to the newcomers I hope you enjoy your stay in 3.6 (i could be a long one)I have only been in 3.6 one season and I already hate it and unfortunately can already see myself been here for many more!

Good luck in going all out Bris, I will hopefully make some money make 4th and launch an assault at the end of the year if I think it is winnable.

Once again welcome or welcome back and good luck to all!

I did it two or three times, too.

I never understood why, but I always managed to come back in a season or two and be able to do it all over again.

im curious.

you lost 400k in the sale + (69k x 7) close to 2 months salary.

400k + 483k = 883k

was it really worth it bringing in Oday when you werent going to challenge for the title or keep him for when you do challenge?

Originally I was going to train Oday with my SF's but his JS was too high and screwed his salary and my training plans. He was only 50k last season so I didnt lose that much.Decided to polish up Stuey along with my SF's this season so I didn't need him anymore.

Gonna buy another player still so stay tuned

Well with my most recent purchase my team is starting to come together. Depending on how I go this season I might make another purchase down the line. Fans don't fail me now, i'm looking to go deep in the cup as well if possible
