Glad it's not personal

With the way the standings are shaking out, you have a rare window where you can rebuild, make a bunch of money and stay in D2. You've got a 3 game lead on the 6 seed in your conference. As long as you hold onto 5, you likely relegation opponent is Kirkwood who sold off most of their team a few weeks ago. You could sell off some of your big salary guys until you hit the salary floor, and then bank $150-200K each week and hopefully still win the relegation series.

As someone who has done it for several seasons now, I believe it’s massive. I bought 2 of my 3 trainees right after draft for a combined $1.35m and drafted the other, and I sold the two that I bought for close to $5m before the start of this season. I also was making $140/wk merch all last season which allowed me to stay in a comfortable financial position despite running a massive salary. I think the key is to be very patient and decisive with the pieces you buy to fill out the team. Buy players for the next level, focus on your run as a whole rather than the current season individually.

This is what I’m trying to do. I had “premature” success last season and ended up promoting, but my timeframe plan had me ready to promote to D2 in the next two seasons. So I’m focusing on my draftee(s), taking the losses + revenue, and hoping on a good draft end of season, and pressing on. I do like the added difficulty of it. I knew a guy who would use a training regimen on players 2 years apart in age, so 18 - 20 - 22, (for example). And when he felt like value was high he would sell one and replace. I thought it was a good idea, I’m just not as patient. I’ve got two guys who are 21, and a guy who is 20, who are all 95+ TSP. And I tend to focus on tertiary skills first (for their position) and then begin to work at the more expensive primary skills.

Beginning with the end in mind, I will have to sell one at some point (offseason?) I am sure, and rotate in a younger draft pick for next season.

So anyway... uh, yeah.

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

What's going on over in the LA Lions front office? Harold Miner sold off 3 bench pieces from a 15-1 juggernaut and tried to sell his 3rd best player too. A 2nd straight season selling off key pieces in the home stretch and tanking the playoffs to earn a little extra money?
