GS woes.


i've got AI woes.

put in a lineup with two blank positions. the GD MF SOB AI unilaterally subbed a bench player for one of my three named starters and so hates my hotshot PF that he has kept Pintore in there with 4 fouls, although the instructions are to sit people in foul trouble.

i don't mind the Cacti going on a 31 - 6 run to bury my ass, but i would at least like it to be because of decisions that i have made. my players don't fit the AI mold and by god he ain't going to play them, come hell or high water.

i've been playing this game too long to be learning lessons like this -- no more AI. that fatass, stupid, smelly, crap-eating turd blossom is history.

Debbie Macomber's Mrs. Miracle, starring James Van Der Beek (aka James Van Der Banging), is airing all week on the Hallmark Channel. It's a Jelme Christmas special!

i can't remember ever seeing the NBBA so competitive as it is at this moment. only Irvine has tossed in his cards, and only the Desert Storm has put any distance between themselves and the rest of the conference.

With road games against Delta 9 & You in my next two games, I'm sure the losses are coming.

On a side note; Congrats to Hassan on being the 16th member of the 100 win club!! Great job, very impressive!

I'm shopping for a new trainer but to my dismay, there doesn't seem to be any holiday specials. Paying 1m+ for a trainer (lvl 5 w/ career extention) is a ridiculous waste of money. What idiots spread this epidemic? Not enough supply for demand.

You nailed it on the supply and demand comment. It is following the prices of what the top players are going for (as evidenced by your purchases and sales this season). Add in the fact you are looking for essentially looking to purchase a hedge/insurance to protect the value of your purchases, a trainer that not only helps young players but also old ones, you have a fairly rare commodity and the market is pricing in that scarcity.

Completely agree that it is a waste of money but that seems to be the new normal for now.

Well, I acquired a lvl 5 career extension trainer (I payed 640K for a 23k starting salary). It took two weeks of bidding wars with a bunch of noobs, until finally I had enough of this shenanigans.

Two American managers, including the one I just outbid now, had no players over the age of 25. Yet, they went Leroy Jenkins on my ass. Bastards.
