#2 Losing record

I don't think a losing record necessarily constitutes a tanker. I think there are a string of things that need to happen. For example, if someone loses by 20+ 3-5 games in a row, and their bank balance is over a million, fans should decrease. If someone loses by 30+ 3-5 games in a row, and their bank balance is over 2 million, fans should dramatically decrease.

Certain other things still need to change, however. A team can still go through, win all the games before home games, tv games and rival matches, lose all the rest and get good money from attendance.

Add that to the possibility of a team doing that, then buying up big just before the playoffs, and it makes things silly.

the problem i have there ar estill player types who are worth a lot of money, ie i sold a 32 yo dude for 2,5M before 1,5 season.

I was pretty happy with him, and maybe i am going to buy a younger version of him someday, but i am quite sure that i need to collect money for a while. That wouldn't be tanking, but having a loosing stiring or a negative record is possible. And when then the income decrease dramatically, with a quite normal team salary(maybe 100-150k less) that wouldn' be great too.

I mean sometimes you don't want to buy the first best avaible player, or maybe target for a better one(and more expensive).

Wow.....................

Just wow.......

From the NBA:

"At the end of the day, your revenue is tied into winning, so teams have to make the decison that they are willing to compete," Bartelstein said. "Competing and giving your fans hope comes from assembling better teams with better players."


It's a really good article. Link here: (http://www.nba.com/2012/news/features/fran_blinebury/06/2...)

Is it possible to let the lower league have a limited potential guy in the draft, let's say, you will only have a better and more chance got MVP or HOF potential guys when you are in league I , II or III. on or below IV , you may have around 2% chance to get those guys, may be 1 or 0 in all 48 draft pick,( last season, my league have 3 or 4 those guys, and I have 2 of them). Is it a encouragement to push them to higher league?

ps: you have 21 leagues in Div I,II and III but you have 64 leagues in Div IV....
