Eff you - read the first letter of each line

Damn it. I'm not Sherlock Holmes. EFF YOU! But that was creative.

The only one who's gotten snowflaky is A-Dub. He only won 5 of 6 possible gold trophies this time around, can you believe it?

I can just imagine Yuck grinning each time he reads that statistic.

Pretty amazing, and even more amazing is he decided to blow up his team and start over.

My biggest concern has always been about money. Managing a 1m+ team salary for multiple seasons is a heavy burden, especially in weeks that you don't have a home game. I typically know it's time to rebuild when my revenue runs dry and/or if I don't achieve the goal in sight (i.e.: B3 title). Moreover, I wanted to get the most value possible out of my trainees which is a major source of income for my next rebuild and future team.

My question is, was last season's Upssyndrome the best US team to ever lace 'em up? I should probably create a Poll thread for that question...

Not to diminish the greatness of each team in their respective era's, but the answer is easily YES. But that's mostly due to the natural progression of the game. In this era alone we saw training improve ten-fold so it's quite frankly and unfair comparison.

In terms of my two dynasties:

In its prime this current title run team is my best starting five in terms of TSP and versatility. I could go inside and out with great success and I could also defend inside and out with no weaknesses 1-5. This is by far my best defensive team. Although, my 145 TSP SG suffered 10 GSP drops this season alone, but even then he was on par to my SG of the past title run, Darryl Meek (s33-35).

My previous dynasty (s33-35) was one dimensional, poor outside scoring, but had much stronger inside scoring. It was also much deeper in terms of depth, by far. I had a Serbian NT C/PF coming off the bench with 140+ TSP to go along side two of my 130+ G/F trainees.

Do you think it is possible for a USA team to win the B3? I haven't competed at that level, so I don't have the perspective of how hard it is. I do know that people were complaining about smaller countries able to better hoard wealth and remain competitive which made them better B3 contenders.

Yes, of course. Any time you are playing against the best in the world it's going to be difficult, but not impossible.

Micro-nations that cannot probably fill a D-I/II league(s) have a distinct advantage to make money as they can stay in a top league with a low salary roster and be very profitable doing so. A great example of this is Iran: imagine being able to drop to D-2 where it is heavily filled with bot teams and having the potential to promote up and down as you please while making an easy 1.5m (promotion bonus). That's insane; however, while this is unfair and you DO have B3 winners from micro-nations, such as Iran, there are also many macro-nation B3 winners from top leagues around the world such as Spain, Poland and China to name a few. We, as a country, have absolutely no excuses as to why we cannot win at the highest level -- WE CAN.
