The best way to make money is to win games and build your stadium as quickly as possible. Selling away players that just doesn't make sense unless they're not needed at all and judging from Seattle's decline, 14-2, 13-3, 5-4, I'd say they were needed. actually: 13-3, 13-3, and hopefully 12-4.
My stadium has been paid for except for the two 300 sections and I have maxed out the seating in the existing sections. I don't think this move has caused me to lose any games that I would not have lost anyway. The only one that could possibly have been different was against you, but honestly I think you still would have beaten me.
I sold out the season in the first few days at an average of about 2.4 times the expected price so this did not effect my income there either. Next season I should be bankin and hopefully be able to hire some plyers that I dont own. Money is the ownly way I will ever be able to get away from being a one man show and still be competitive.
I could recruit players now, but they would not be high levels and things would really get bad. So I'll have plenty of cash to try and get some high level guys to come on board. If Bort gets the new player features in place then cash will be important to agents.
Thats the plan anyway,
