This season has been a really eye opening experience for me. I was super jacked to get here, but I went the route of no training and paying the overextension tax to field a team to get here. I did that for my season in II and this season to get to the playoffs.
It seems like the teams that have been around forever are sitting on huge piles of money that make that strategy the wrong one. Haha.
Going to tank and train and see if I can get back up here with a real chance to win this thing.
For you guys that have been around for awhile - how do you see a post season 30 team ever winning the NBBA? It has to be real effective training and roster-building around that right?
I get not helping the competition
but curious to see if anyone is willing to have a discussion around this.

Not gonna lie, here's what I think the road to success is:
Make about $20M. Maybe you can win the NBBA with a bankroll of $10M but if you're gonna do this you're gonna aim high. The ways to do this are a combination of training (including maybe an entire generation of guys just trained-to-sell, or trained to 21yo and flipped), tanking/payroll management, and dumb luck (I once sold a draftee for ~$5M or something and got GM fined down a bit it was so 'lucky').
Then get a batch of 3, preferably US for NT merch, HoF potential trainees. I think HoF will be necessary in the future because of youth trainers, but feel free to maybe try MVP for unique builds. Train them to caps (age 28+?).
Make NBBA and figure out "the meta" and how to beat it. Buy 31 or 32yos off transfer list (assuming that stays the market sweet spot) to fill in the positions you didn't train. Run a career extension trainer and take three whacks at the crown.
I've been running close to overextension for the past few seasons because I wanted to try my luck in B3, but you don't need a $1M payroll to win NBBA most seasons, especially if you've trained your own salary-efficient high-TSP players.
That's my take, see you in 10 seasons if we blow up rosters together!

Yes it is three in a row, almost as impressive as your 3 league titles in a row!
My last cup loss was on March 28th, 2019 to Red Pandas:
(105626945)
and it still makes me upset.
But my next cup loss should be pretty soon and less upsetting.
Good game Marshland, I think it was a good play to go with the outside guess, glad I dodged it!

Congrats. Your players are just better than mine. Although my second team would crush your second team! :)
Anyway, just hanging on to see if I can get any more trophies and perhaps get to 100 wins before my team collapses.
