It opens up a lot of options for teams, such as rebuilding without relegating.


i am trying to figure a scenario in which "rebuilding" does not become synonymous with "buying veterans whose shelf-life is expiring". the short answer is, i don't see an alternative.

But sometimes you can't find veterans that fit your skill needs for a certain salary, so you've gotta train one up to fill that hole.

Basically I view anytime that you're training more than 1 player, it's a rebuild. You can't just give both trainees Cup/Scrimmage minutes for 1 position training. A trainee would have to go 48 in league play. That'll cost the team league wins, and used to cost them ticket revenue. Now ticket revenue won't be hurt as much.

You can buy someone whose already semi-trained and 22-23 years old who can contribute in league play as you round out their build, but those guys will be expensive.

Couldn't you just buy talented players and reset your team around the talent you have ?

Sure, if you have solid all-around players. But if the core of your team (say that you trained them for) sacrificed something in order to excel at another area, then you'd need to find out how to fill that sacrificed weakness through other players on the TL.

It's times like this that you need to keep perspective and ask yourself: would it be worth living in Cleveland?

since i am an owner, i would be living in Shaker Heights.

but you're right. Eugene is better. it's just that i had no idea that this Mr. James, whoever he is, could attract such attention. perhaps i should pay more attention to the minor leagues.

Spent a little too much time prepping for my match with ATL the Hawks. I hope I can "lose" the tank battle.

I would probably lose to them tonight. 9 fouls in the first quarter with no GDP guess from my side. So frustrating.
