Whoops. I may have underestimated my opponent this week. I guess I'll have to go buy some players to beat CRU away from home!

I am the sole survivor from the Big 8. Everyone else took it on the chin this week. I would not have predicted this at all. WOW!

Wow the transfer market is crazy! You'd think a modest budget of $1M would be enough to find a plethora of great talented guards, but it was a lot tougher than I thought. Even though I didn't get a lot of the players I originally wanted, I'm relieved that after many days of searching I finally have a good starting PG that can help my team compete once again.

Yeah, it's pretty crazy right now. I just spent the same on a half-decent PF on what I sold an elite level NT SF a few seasons ago. And i'm one of the lucky ones.

Glad you got your man.

Haha thanks. I was considering waiting until I had $2M to spend on a much better guard, but I just couldn't wait that long. I still have to add a lot more depth but it might take a while with the inflation in the market. That's why I'm glad I waited until just recently to sell my young PG. I know a couple of months ago he wouldn't have been worth $500k+.
But yeah I see you're still adding to your star studded team which is scary lol. Should be interesting to see how the playoffs eventually play out.

Also, I'm thinking of bringing back the power rankings. I might do one after the next league game or the game after, depending on when I get around to it.

I spent $225K for a backup PF. I kept getting outbid, I bid on at least 12 players. Half of those ended up going for $500K or more. Totally nuts, and probably when I am ready to sell the bottom will have fallen out. LOL

I'm just under $5 mil in the hole. One transaction I don't see pn my page. A few seasons ago I "rented" a player for the playoffs. Paid around $1.5 mil for him. When the season was done I sold him and got about $2.5 mil. But with only getting about 60% of that I kind of broke even. I unloaded him quick because he was making around $96 K a week. Eating me alive so I couldn't keep him around. Hadn't planned on it either. I had a reserve and hoped he would help me win. Obviously not. LOL

Ouch - that's pretty rough. I did that once or twice in the days before the GS hit upon transfer. I think the trick was making sure you will win with that extra player!

I'm the worst moaner in BB, i'm sure of it. But seriously, another 2 early injuries in this game? One multi-week injury to another key player? I mean, I've got a half-decent doctor now, what else can I do?

I saw that, and checked after the game. I'm glad they both weren't multi week injuries. The game would have gone differently I think had they not gotten hurt. Sorry about that, but happy for the win at the same time.
