. i'm guessing here, but i'd be surprised if Pierce was anything like a $110,000 guard.


Believe it or not, but Pierce has only dropped 2 in OD (went from 20-18 four weeks ago), and 1 in rebounding. So he was pretty much crappy when I bought him :-)

My game against HPH was pretty disheartening...Going in, I knew HPH could still win the game even with me crunching...but to be down 30 points, on my home court, on a Crunch vs Tie was a shocker. Strange thing though...In the last 4 -6 seasons I have crunched about 4 regular seasons games...And in non-punt games, those 4ish games I crunched were my worst offensive performances of that particular season.

So I am not sure if something is wrong with Crunch, or if maybe my style of play is not suited for it..but either way, HPH is clearly alone at the top of the Big 8 by a huge margin...I would have had little chance beating them at home in the playoffs anyway...but on the road, I fear we'd draw Boston Celtics comparisons.

Time to sell off, find some youngsters who are not foul prone to train, bank some money, and come back in 4-7 seasons and make another run :-)

Been a few bids in the last hour...but as of about an hour ago one team had the bid on all 9 of my core players!! Like they say, one man's trash is another man's treasure!!

Good luck man, I'm doing the same. Just need to finish my training on Rogers and then I'll sell him too. Speaking of foul prone rookies, I think mine is the suckiest. Mario Barf is averaging a cool 5.1 per game. He's gone soon too. At least he has a million dollar smile.


I'm sorry to disappoint you, but Barf is actually only 3rd suckiest :-)

Adding up minutes from all games played...

My turd draft pick has played 485 minutes on the season, committed 54 fouls for an average of 1 foul for every 8.98 minutes played.

Barf has played 701 minutes, wracked up a whopping 71 fouls, but that average is 1 foul per 9.87 minutes played.

Out of nowhere, my other loser trainee Gamboa has quietly swatted away both of those challengers, wracking up 41 fouls in just 328 minutes played giving him 1 foul for every 8 minutes played.

All 3 of these players should be put down..and personally, I don't even care if they are put down humanely or not!!

Well, I did okay with my player sales. I was hoping to net at least $4.5 million, and ended up netting $5,449,226...and despite some of these purchases being fairly recent, I only missed out an additional $269,774 in Transfer Fees.

However, this fire sale illustrates some of what we have been complaining about lately. I purchased all of these players between December 16th, 2016, and March 16th, 2017. So in the last 2-5 months, my players have decreased 57.3%.

Total Purchase Price: $12,737,399
Net Sales Price: $5,449,226
Net Loss: $7,288,173

I've always made money....I usually bring in $540K-$556K per game in attendance...after a road loss or something it might dip own....My 3 home games prior to losing at home to HPH and on the road to Pappy, my attendance was $545K, $565k, and $556k....yesterday tho I took a HUGE hit with my attendance revenue dropping all the way to $460K....Typically I have been $20K to $75K in the positive before Cup revenue.

Yea being at home with more effort and +1 GDP made it fairly easy this time around. Regular season doesn't matter though, June 10th is the true test!

This is the last season I'll have this entire team so hopefully they don't let age catch up to them before then!
