Chek is at it again, another player TL'd. With rebuild on the horizon, I think he plans on scraping players from my roster. I'm on to you!

Arizona Desert Storm was just awarded the "Star? Struck." achievement.


I can't believe that's the 1st time you've sold a guy for more than $2.5m! Having said that, the fact that you're at break-even in you all time TL activity is incredible. I'm at -$30m!!! Imagine where i'd be if I had it all back.

You, with $30 mil more than what you have is a pretty scary thought!

WTF, I didn't have a home game this week? I thought I already had a week without a home game?

my schedule had the same thing -- two separate weeks w/out a home game.

to counter, i do have one week with two home games, and i opened the season with a home game. but, still, i can not recall any previous schedule with two such weeks with no home game.

sure makes my financial projections a lot less rosy.

Couldn't be any less rosy than -1m. That can't be right.

Well, this is why they release the schedule at the beginning of the season in its entirety so you can plan ahead financially.
You had a home game to start the season, and your only game over All-Star Week was home, and you have 3 of 4 at home to finish the season. So while it sucks to have weeks where you don't have home attendance, just like everyone else, it makes up for it in other weeks.

I had 3 consecutive road games...last game of conference play and the first two games of inter-conference play, and my All-Star Week game was a road game.

I have always referred to these particular two schedules as "The bankruptcy schedules". If you go into the season with money, or little needs as far as roster movement, it's okay, because what you lose mid-season you gain back at the end...but if you go into the season with little to no money, and/or need to make some roster moves to be competitive, it can be brutal navigating around those weeks where you don't have a home game...especially if you're carrying a payroll higher than you really should be, and running a large negative in weekly revenue/expenses.

That's a nice team you have there.

It'd be a shame if it...

Went bankrupt.
