But even during season 21 (before I won the title), my merch was between 80ish-90ish. 80ish if my guard Wens wasn't on Belgium's NT, and 90ish if he played that week. Actually I want to say that Wens gave me about a 8k boost if he got minutes. Anyways, even when Wens wasn't playing on his countries NT my merch was at a decent level for only having 1 (and then 2 mid-way through the season) USA players.

And the kicker? (23332)

Wens is back on his countries NT this year. I added a 107k starting USA guy, and a 37k USA big for Cup depth. So not scrubs by any means, yet my merch is still way lower than beforehand. Now its between 63-70k.

In season 22 my merch was between 75-90k. I don't think Wens was on his countries NT, so to me this explained why it wasn't higher than the previous season.

Long story short, I understand I need a USA NT player to hit league average (at minimum). My lone almost had a USA NT story was trying to buy Nix when I entered the NBBA, but Reston Thumpers outbid me.

Hmm, we didn't have a poll for the NCAA Finals.

lorenz is worth ~40k in merch on the NT. probably around the same for goddard and half that on nemesio.

still losing money, as a 250k LI guard will do, but it def helps offset the hit.

Goddard's a beast, if you actually tried to go for the League, would attendance be high enough to break even?

ideally i could win road and cup games, and give up the home ones. thats the best you can do financially. in that case id be close to break even for this season. next season will jump again, especially nemesio.

just trying to keep it together until goddard/nemesio are 33 or so

I don't think it's quite a coincidence that Silverbacks got knocked out of the Cup and won the league. He's the 3rd Finals representative in a row to get knocked out of the Cup early.

Burlington Mountain Goats in Season 20.
Funky Town Fire in Season 21.
And Silverbacks last season.

Really hard to do both Cup and League.

you can probably justify the league route if you're winning most of your road games, otherwise you dont make much if any extra cash i the playoffs to offset what you lose in the cup.
