You certainly beat me in JR & average SB (although I have 1 freak & 1 solid) but I wouldn't be sure about PA, sure Shirzi probably has 18-20 but x average GS & he is down at Lahovc's wondrous level. I beat that.

It is a big test running Kishita in a LI team but so far he is 55%FG (even playing 1 game at SF), he has massive holes but it sure makes his salary much, much lower :D

Agreed on the "dead league" thing (in that I disagree it's "dead").
I think the nation's probably about where it's always been, and as far as active teams go - JBBL's probably similar (if not better) to what it's always been.
I do think you're doing a good job Toranaga - I envy your all Japan team, and I've been slowly adding pieces. Suenami's as old as the hills, but he's still a useful bench guy. K-Mat and Bird are going to be key for me... and both Japanese. Yay.

My deal this season is training my guys. Over everything else. Secondaries for K-Mat/Tim, and that means primaries for the Birdman (which has YC licking his chops!). I should have done this a while ago, but I'm probably in the best position to do it... and it will fit in well with the Birdman too.
The only way I take on another trainee at the moment would be if something appeared that made me want to sell Tim.

This league is so weak you can pay over 100k a week in salary to a guard with 8 PA and not be phased by it. Do you know what happens to a 8PA GUARD against any kind of real OD??? This only works if 1/2 the teams you play in your regular schedule are bots or tanking the game for training or something else.


I guess you are talking about the bum I am trying to sell(for weeks it seems), You should just tell him thank you for the TV money and be done with it. The TV money is the only reason he is on my team and I refuse to lose money on this bum.

Not quite what you said Wolph. You can change your definition now, but what you SAID was that the league's dead. That is what Toranaga/I are disagreeing with.
There's a very, very big difference between "dead" and "not competitive". I'd argue that those of us taking a season off are more *active* than some of those who are trying to compete.

Actually, money is not the reason I slash my spending. It is all for my young trainees and I spent 2M to get a level 7 trainer on June 2, since I decide to focus on them, it is unnecessary to keep big spending.

I know your boy was a TV money move.....What made it funny/odd/indicative of a weak league is that malice is also trying to sell an 8 PA guard...and I can't remember who but recently i saw another team in this league with an 8 PA guard...back in the day when Goncz and Budiarso were crushing the league I think 8 PA was probably some kind of standard for JBBL SGs or something....we play too many bots....tooo many.

Kyoto just flunked out of the cup...if Elanstraat signed in and CTd me though..maybe I could have faced the same fate....

hindsight is 20/20 but I think he shoulda gave me the win and put an extra dude/effort into his cup game just to be safe. I did the same thing a few seasons back if I remember correctly...can't take those cup opponents for granted!!!

Wolph... stop? Please?
That's a shooting guard, who also has 17 handles, 15 JR and 18 on JS/OD/Dr - and 190k in salary. I've done pretty damn well biting my tongue with you this season - and I'm asking you pretty nicely now: do you think you could stop publicly bashing teams/players who aren't *yours*?
