No one should tank a game... It ruins the fun for everyone in your league, tanking is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of, you don't see the horrible Charlotte Bobcats tanking games out there do you? No, they all go out there and give it their all.

Hmmm.... i don't think you want to use the NBA as an example of a league where teams don't tank.

Well I don't know what you want to call it, but a team that only wins 7 games is not trying to win.

The only decent player they have is Kemba, they have no one else that is even decent.

That is exactly why they are tanking, you see if they actually were trying to win then they would have some better players. Teams have been doing it for years, the NBA is the only sports league where one player makes all the difference. The reason why the Bobcats tanked is because they want the top pick in the draft. The same goes for tanking in Buzzer Beaters, and yes as you said tanking is stupid.

Man! dude!! Im not tanking. It was told to me by a few d-2 teams. Im not tanking...dig it man!!! Im simply getting rid of my older studs who have been costing 15k ea weekly and now they are declining in some areas. I have a plan. Im riding hi in 1st place but a team in my league has tanked the past several seasons, baked up several millions and BAM..He just loaded his team to finish up d-5 and BREEZE through d-4. Im trying somewhat the same method. And hope i can have several hundred thousand dollars saved by the end of the season so I can get me a few superstars to lead me in to d-4 and remain competitive. Easy bro-Easy!!

No worries, I wasn't trying to prove you were tanking, I may have been a little off topic, but i was showing the problem of tanking in the NBA.
