The new season is here! Are league got the bot naismith team so we have 5 new div III teams. Botwood Raptors, Van Cougars, O-Ballas, Murfs Blue Devils and Montreal Fireballs. Welcome to II.2 which was probably the most active div II forum last season. Anywhoo I just wanted to welcome the new managers and ask everyone what their goals are for this season. Personally I am all in on promoting, but if it seems like that plan is failing I will be going for a long cup run.

Oh yeah and hi amateur, I know you didnt want to see me :)

Hi, all. First time to div II. Seemed to take forever to promote from my div III league, lol. What I'm expecting for the upcoming season? Putting my expectations low. Just going to try to avoid relegation. Anyways, good luck all and maybe my team will surprise me somehow this season.

Bballin, I didn't say I didn't want to see ya. It's just that there is no satisfactions in giving u free wins :p

5 new teams from Div III - welcome to all and here's to success for this coming season to you guys. By the way, you new guys don't let the friendly posts fool you - once the game starts these guys play for keeps, so roll up your sleeves. :)

Personally, I just hope to finish no lower than 5th, although making the playoffs again would be very nice. Most teams I noticed improved their rosters over the last couple of weeks - so no free ride. Again - sigh!!!

Looks like we keep our status as weakest D2 team. We will see though!

Good luck to all this season.

Shhhh dont tell them that! ;)

I think you have the team to make a good playoff run to be completely honest. Dont be too modest! My team should finish top 3 in my conference and from there, its anyones game.

I think You will do just fine up here. If you can keep both your bigs you should be able to stay up here. Heck I was just like you figuring I had no chance my first season, but then I found myself in a playoff position that I swiftly tanked out of. Then last season I win the conference at 14-8 after starting 5-7. Anything can happen :)

Just wondering - how was everyone's draft? I noticed that our friend World Alliance got a Hall of Famer with the 16th pick. But, that is OK, cuz he is a generous guy, willing to share his good fortune with the rest of us. Any one of us, he is not partial, bless him, can have this draft pick for only a measly million bucks!!!

On the other hand, I noticed that the St. Louis Beasts picked up not one, but two - yes count them - two potential announcers. Geez, man what evil did you do in a previous division?? I just hope you didn't spend too much $$$$$$ on your scouting!! ;)

I think, I did OK - I got at least a temporary keeper with my 2nd pick.

I think these newcomers have done their homework though ;) speaking of honework..... *GROAN* more physics 20!

My draft was horrible, but I didnt invest so thats alright. Three new scrubs to carry waterbottles! :D

Lastly the salary update was kind to me! The beast I picked up? A 1k increase. Lovely. :)
