"The revenue in small natoin has a glass ceiling . WE can never have the TV or arena money that big nations do, we are at about DII or DIII even sometimes comparative revenue of big nation...depending on nation size" -Wolph
For reference here is a list of US TV revenue(NBBA was at like 220k last season, not sure on this season)
http://www.buzzerbeater.com/community/forum/read.aspx?thr...I'd say you are safely above any D.III revenue and most likely D.II as well, and not just in TV revenue but also in the arena cap and in the ease of having greater merchandising income.
Simple misunderstanding on the training then selling of players, and once again I would say the high prices for young'uns with high potential are the only ones out of line-and that's for the potential glory. Lower potential players, perennial allstar, sometimes even superstars can often be picked up easily enough and if trained properly can in my opinion still be sold for a profit or at least not too great of a loss.
On the FA point I tend to agree with you, they are for the most part unnecessary-though I do support the listing of all players on NTs who go bot.
