Thank you for your rankings and your comments again.

You are totally right and honestly I have the worst intra-league schedule among the three.
A rival game with you and a TV game with the Hawks at the same week. It is hard to deal with your twin towers whereas no stars are at my team. I am not sure if I will become #3 seed when the season is over.

However, the two good things to me are: 1) I never place my best five players in any games I played this season, and 2) my weekly balance is still a plus, regardless the bonus from those cups.

I think I got a benefit since my last game I went TIE and my opponent went Normal.

As an observation, I don't know where my team is going. I am stuck with some players that don't really fit my team, and I don't think my trainees are going to get where I want them. So it is quite possible I blow this team up in the near future. But I can't do that mid season. We shall see...

You'll see no complaints from me if you blow it up tomorrow. Just sayin'.

You mean IV? I think your team actually has potential to make a late season run for 7th and you have enough fire power to do well in a relegation series.

If I were really diligent in my planning and scouting, I'd be looking at the top teams salary to income ratio. The league average is still a pretty big profit, but I suspect that is because of a few teams. Right now the league is in a bit of a stalemate, kinda like it was 3 seasons ago. There are several teams carrying pretty big salaries who are capable of promoting, but are still feeling each other out because they aren't so dominant as to just crush opposition weekly. On the other hand, there are several of us now who are ranked lower who are probably capable of blowing out the competition if we really decided to. The guys at the top are especially vulnerable to us if they blow their wad early. But we're unlikely to do so when their are so many teams who are both impatient and in charge of good rosters.

In terms of income, we do have a few team with HUGE arenas. At least much bigger than past seasons. So, some of the higher salary teams may be ok if they're selling the seats.

On the other hand, there are several of us now who are ranked lower who are probably capable of blowing out the competition if we really decided to.


Don't get any ideas...

Power Ranking time!!

A little shakeup on the top, but nothing too drastic. What's incredible right now, though, is that 5 of the top 6 teams are in the Big 8. That will be a fun playoff battle...

Back to conference games! Amazing that the playoffs is only 4 weeks away.

Don't get it, too.

Of course, any teams play CT to a higher rank team might change the game results.
Any low salary teams who want to buy one or two 100+K players will also change some game results immediately.

In addition, as my best knowledge, a good player who can dominate in DIII might cost $600K-1M. Assuming team managers save $100K per week. You still need to wait for 3 seasons to get all the starters ready, regardless the salary increased by those trainees. And don't forget your other players are getting old and their value are also decreasing. So, does saving money really help so significantly as people expected?

I guess we should deeply appreciate those underrated teams to allow the current top teams win.
