The Main Event, features the MKE Bucks @ the Wahoo Warriors. This might be the best time to sneak a home win.

14 points! how dare you Double R haha. You are as bad as the fans who only gave me 63% attendance for such a great game. I take that loss as a win. I know it was a home game but losing by 3 with less effort feels fine to me! Look forward to the active group and happy to chat it up as well. I'll give my shot at my season preview when i get a chance.

Wahoo Warriors Season 68 Preview

I hope to not promote and chill with y'all for a season or 2! I like active leagues and it makes the game way more fun.

Reflecting on Last Season

Last season I was in https://buzzerbeater.com/league/18/overview.aspx?Season=67 III.13 and got whooped. I was expecting that for the most part so I just focused on trainees and tried to bank some cash and invest in infrastructure. I did try to snag a 100k player to see how close i was to competing. Needless to say I sold him real fast and executed the tank shortly after.

Roster and Training Updates

Still adjusting to the new trainee style w 19yr old buffs and all that. Currently I've been going with a more fun but less competitive approach and training 6 players at a time. After focusing on PF/C for the start of my buzzer career I have shifted to focusing on PG/SG trainees with the new game engine updates.

I have a really exciting trainee in Mr. Teddy Temple. We successfully Tanked for Temple last season and I look forward to seeing how swole he can get (while training 5 other players alongside him haha).

Financial Outlook and Future Plans

I already have to find some places to cut costs. I should be fine for this season but will have some really tough decisions to make next season as my trainees keep ballooning in cost. But generally speaking, I'm focusing on infrastructure investments as much as possible while training an army of youths.

Final Thoughts

Honestly not in a rush to promote back to Div 3. Would love a bit more time to max out my infrastructure before making a bigger push to higher leagues. It feels like it takes a lot of momentum and luck and min-maxing to get past Div 3 in most cases. That being said, I look to be competitive and if I can snag another promotion I will go for it because the economic boost from higher leagues is really nice as I was raking in 100k/week last season while tanking and focusing on trainees.

I hope to not promote and chill with y'all for a season or 2! I like active leagues and it makes the game way more fun.

I feel ya, Its nice to be in a active chatting league.... I dont really plan to move out of D4 for the next few years at least... so just enjoying the flow.

I do hope we get to stay together, but for some reason, BB moves people around in the lower leagues... so who knows...

Best of luck!!

These are gonna be great! Gotta love ChatGPT

The 1st couple of weeks are always rough. Gameshape, who is banking enthusiasm, are people interested, etc.

I think you did very well. When I saw he normaled you. I was even more impressed.

Yeah, I think having homegrown/locals and a level 3 merch store helps. I dont really know about arena sponsorships yet or how to improve that....

Good luck in your game tonight! :-)

Tuesday Night Smash'm Ups!

Buckner Bandits resolute victory over the Vatican Vipers, showcased their balanced offense. Mick Hunt, best name I've seen so far, Kevin Moore, were made solid. Combined the 2 players, shot 17-35, 3-7 from behind the 3point line, they had 20 assists, 3 steals and only 1 Turn Over. They accounted for 80 of the Buckner Bandits 106 points.

Meanwhile the MKE Bucks, Troy Head, flirted with a triple double, in the home opener. 28 points, 9 boards and 8 assists.

Should be an interesting match up.

Good Luck everyone.

Love it, I appreciate the vote of confidence, but I had ZERO chance in that game!!! :-) all good, the bandits have a long way to go! :-)
