I think "that thug Sherwin" will go in my Hall of Fame tonight. I love him and despite his declining TPE and creeping age I think I will be hanging onto him for a long time. Obviously Gamboa was the MVP but Sherwin's grit and Ðuričko stepping up and having his game of the season were other massive factors. Ðuričko is the last player from my startup team in season team and it was Judge Nik and you that told me to train him. Well his stats aren't as good as they could be due to my incompetence when I was training him but he had a hell of a game tonight.

Sid I still think your economic management two seasons ago was the best I have ever seen on BB. Remember that was two seasons ago and I was two points down with seconds to goand I had won that semi-final I could have made the ABBL back then.

I worry about Smeltz going down, unless he has millions stacked away he might have problems.

Its not easy readjusting a demoted team to be able to perform within budget constraints and I dont know how he'll be able to hang onto Smeltz and still have the depth to be competitive.

I sincerely hope Beechy gets back in the game, it would be an absolute shame to see such a champion Manager to go bot.

Good on you Yoda, I honestly thought you'd made a mistake spending so much on an aging centre.

Not saying Aussie didnt, but you truly deserve the opportunity to experience the ABBL.

Bad luck to all those teams still in league II.3, like league II.2 I will continue to look on with interest and hope to see some more of my old friends join Yoda and I in the ABBL in the near future.

I hope you do better than I did first time around in the ABBL.

I put so much time and resources into the efforts of getting into the ABBL, I truly had no idea of what to do when I got there.

Congratulations Yoda on promoting to ABBL for the first time. I certainly had my doubts after you went OT against SplitJ. Hope you are ready mate because it isn't going to be easy!

Bad luck Aussie mate! You took up the challenge and I commend you for it. Keep at it and I'm sure you will make it to ABBL soon.

Also I haven't had the chance but would like to congratulate Sid. Hope you have learnt a lot last time round and will do much better this time.

Great to see so many fellow II.3 team mates doing so well. Still waiting on you my fellow rivals Haggards and Vios. :P

Can't believe I still remember when this forum was dead quiet and now it's so active! Time certainly flies! ^^

Thanks mate but sincerely my efforts on re promoting are insignificant to your magnificent majestic maulings of the elites of the game

gratz on the ABBL championship

knew that I was in trouble after losing away with similar ethusiam but still shattered that I dont have HGA in the semis since I lost a game I shouldnt against aussie earlier in the season. good job aussie dude as well.

hope we dont get someone crazy on the big 8 next season.

Thanks guys. I put in a massive amount of effort into knowing this game very well. I put in a huge patient plan to try and achieve success. I also went all in spending all I had on a player I thought would tip the scales, buying a ton of PR guys as needed and training game shape for the first time in seven seasons for the last few weeks. But in the end I needed a massive amount of luck to make it come true and really without so many things going right for me all at once that were beyond my control I don't think I could have made it. So I will try to remain humble and admit that I fought many great managers and while I may have prevailed it does not show that I am the best, merely that fortune has smiled upon me this time.

Good to see you winning here yoda. I hope the immortals, PP, Neeber and myself will have our own chance to follow the path you've drawed from div 4.7. What a long and awesome journey. That must be a very satisfying achievement to make it to the top league after all these seasons of hard work.

Enjoy next season!

eh? Ive been to the ABBL... got dominated.. wouldn't recommend making it to the big league with an ill-equipped team like I had.

Thanks Haggard and thanks Ezylife. Yes the journey through divisions IV.7 and III.6 have sertainly been enlightening ones. I am certain I will enjoy my experience up there with the big boys, how successful I will be is a different matter.
