@ Ramquizibo - You're totally right. I'd forgotten about that clause in the manual. And I hadn't realized how truly new Justin's team was.

@ Justin - If you're going with this strategy, ignore what I said until New Years'. By then you'll have to start paying the league minimum regardless of your actual salary costs.

Hey can we go over how many TV games you won in a row again? I kinda came into the middle of that one and need a little refresher.

The idea of building your stadium is a good idea - though you could do this while still winning games

A couple of things.

1. Losing games will result in lower attendance and lower revenue, so your projections may be high.
2. Once you understand how to manage gameshape and enthusiasm, you'll realize how very easy it is to win a DV league.
3. You get promotion money into DIV and you're better off executing your plan while minimally staying in DIV.
4. You don't need to spend more than $10K a week on scouting since you're in DV and (even in DIV with a bad record) you'll get enough information for a good draftee.
5. Buy 3 18 year olds with at least Star potential and single train them with an Advanced trainer. You probably won't train these trainees very well until you figure out what a good trainee's skills look like initially and how to maximize their training. But at least this will teach you something in the meantime.
6. A $500K bankroll will not buy you a good enough team to steamroll or win a DIV league anymore. Most DIV leagues have several very good managers who have very good teams.

The best strategy is to win games, have a positive cash flow and build your stadium to increase your cash flow. And sell and replace your players at intervals when your cash flow will allow and which will help you win more games against better teams. You don't need 5-7 seasons to figure this out.
