BC = Basketball Club... I'm not sure it's possible to make a direct connection. Besides, Carolina has been online.

Anyone remember Valentine's Day of 2015?

From the forum on that day:
Getting pretty sick of people giving Tata an easy ride every season. Like seriously.. How the hell is anyone supposed to compete when half the EBBL make sure one team always gets an easy ride? I've had hard games against people all fricking season and I'm watching a player move away purely because people are too gutless!

Rant off - you may now go back to allowing Tata an easy ride, giving him as much capital as it is possible to make and allowing a continued imbalance in everyone's ability to compete in the english league.

Vecx said that.

Since coming back to the EBBL after relegation Los Mikitos has never made any effort against Vecx at all, losing by 46, 73, and today's 70. Pathetic that a good team has no bottle to fight.

I have no chance of winning the title this season, I'm spending almost half a million less a week than Vecx but you can guarentee I won't lie down till I'm put down. Every season I face more effort than any other team in my conference. Usually in an effort to relegate me, but this time to allow Vecx his annual triumphal procession.

It would be nice if for a change a team in the Chicken Hearted Conference would actually do something unexpected. Like actually trying to win the title.

You'd better hope you avoid playing Tide of Fire and someone else goes to the effort of putting him out of the cup for you, and probably hope that the team playing you in the final has a player missing through injury too.

Meanwhile, lets just all go on letting Vecx win again. Maybe he'll get tired one day and then all the chickens can have a go.

last competitive season for me, I am missing the thrill of training new players and since my boys are in their twilight, I'll let them see retirement out in the team and use them to inspire some youngsters

Well, we might see the Chicken Hearted Conference come out of the coop into the daylight.

I'm sure we will see the rise of the red giants.

Dragons can be beaten...

If that's what you saw, I suggest reading lessons. I'm not asking for help, just a level playing field.

Having been on both sides of my own statement I still agree with the principle it states. Each team has to do their own thing, what is best for them; however there is a significant cumulative effect of throwing games against the top team. When I wrote that, almost half of Tata's games had been thrown, providing his starters with easy minutes and his PD with ample beefing. The income differential was over 100k and the easy games allowed him to save players in the league and cruise through the cup without hurting his player gameshape.

Now it is my turn. Admittedly this season, being my last competitive one, I've pushed the salaries to the limit. I am making a tiny profit per week, enough to eek out one throw of the dice at B3 for me. I've learned a lot during the seasons at b3, increasing my knowledge of the game, players and tactics. To give you all an idea of how 1.05 million salaries is possible to make a profit with, my staff costs are 60k, scouting at 10k and I get 210k merchandising through my two bigs having grown up in the team and now playing NT. The only way to stop my team winning the EBBL title this season save for major injuries, is to en masse, crunch fest me. The income differential combined with my burning the team out financially in one season will make it very hard for everyone. I'm sorry, but hopefully it means we (I hope it's ok to use we) get an English flag into the knockouts of b3 with a shot and a strong finish.

Peace
