Since nobody stepped up for the Western Conference, we'll only be doing the east.
More updates to come tonight.
BBB STADIUMS
Stadium Growth is a sign of a team's growth
EASTERN CONFERNECE
New York Warriors - PROMOTED, out of League
Warriors Field
TCC's Wax-Bustin Warriors - PROMOTED, out of League
MSW Warriors Field
Miami Sharks - PROMOTED, out of League
Shark Bowl
Louisville Nighthawks - PROMOTED, out of League
Riverfront Stadium
New York Grizzlys
Home of the grizzlys
Capacity: 10,190 End Season 5
Capacity: 12,030 Start Season 6 - 26% increase in capacity.
Notes: It appears that they took out a loan to build their one section, which is growth at a snails pace. To the Grizzlys', if you want to seriously compete and be able to afford talent at high levels, you're going to have to get very aggressive with your stadium construction. One new section per off season is what causes most teams to start floundering - the can't keep up with payroll costs, don't have the stadium revenue to sustain it, which results in poor on-field performance and low fan support.
Syracuse Souls
Soul Garden
Capacity: 32,610 End Season 5
Capacity: 42,360 Start Season 6 - 24% increase in capacity.
Notes: 1st and 2nd levels completed. Average growth capacity for the conference and the Souls remain one of the stadium juggernauts. Steady growth shows a determined interest by the staff to make it work and allow them to field a competitive team.
Richmond Retros
Paul Westerberg Stadium
Capacity: 29,340 End Season 5
Capacity: 34,860 Start Season 6 - 26% increase in capacity.
Notes: 1st done, both 2nd level sidelines done. Again, another sign of management that is serious about fielding a competitive team with average stadium growth for the conference.
American Freedom
Patriot Field at Minuteman Stadium
Capacity: 26,420 End Season 5
Capacity: 41,500 Start Season 6 - 37% increase in capacity.
Notes: 1st and 2nd levels completed. Clearly the most aggressive team in the conference with its stadium. 13 sections built in two seasons, that reflects a dedication and sacrifice the players have made to the team - showing their respect for the management. Freedom intends on making a run for the title, their stadium aggression reflects it.
Boston Massacre
* POOF *
Capacity: 37,940 End Season 5
Capacity: Start Season 6
Notes: What the hell, one of the better competitively capable teams in the conference up and frigg'n disappeared. Damn it.
Bortsville Mystery Nerf
All the colors...
Capacity: 38,720 End Season 5
Capacity: 47,860 Start Season 6 - 19% increase in capacity.
Notes: 1st and 2nd levels complete. Below league average, but they were already a huge stadium and given that, management is clear about it's intentions of creating a financial juggernaut with this slow build team. Season 8 should be their break out year.
Dallas Rampage
Rampage Romping Grounds
Capacity: 11,570 End Season 5
Capacity: 11,940 Start Season 6 - 5% increase in capacity.
Notes: No stadium section built, which is an enormous miscue by management. By only adding seats, they're trying to field a competitive team now and sacrificing the stadium to do it. They're going to have issues in season 7 signing FAs and keeping players because payroll equipment costs will begin to exceed their stadium's ability to sustain them. They've primed themselves for gut/rebuild or being hawked off back to GLB unless they can get all of their players renegotiate for minimum pay so they can focus on the stadium for a couple of seasons.
Cincinnati Stallions
* POOF *
Capacity: 13,690 End Season 5
Capacity: Start Season 6
Notes: Another one that up and disappeared.
Colonial Zoners
Zone Dome
Capacity: 35,840 End Season 5
Capacity: 40,740 Start Season 6 - 12% increase in capacity.
Notes: 1st and 2nd level complete. Under par growth for the conference, but still showing dedication to the stadium, which is a promising sign. Continued and steady growth will help them stay competitive.
Cleveland Firebirds
Pain Domain
Capacity: 18,760 End Season 5
Capacity: 20,600 Start Season 6 - 9% increase in capacity.
Notes: Only one 1st level corner added. The Firebirds are have a cross road they have to face and it's not going to be pretty. With L32 equipment looming for many players and likely poor to low fan support, they're going to have to make a choice in paying for equipment to stay competitive, which only delays the problem, or take that money and fuel the stadium to afford the equipment in season 7. Attempting to balance the two will cause them to wallow in more mediocrity. Management needs to make a decisive move on one side of the fence or another that won't be popular with fans or the other side, the players. Strengthening the team as a whole for the future needs to be priority #1.
Chicago LMG Accountabillibuddies
Zone Dome
Capacity: 33,460 End Season 5
Capacity: 39,960 Start Season 6 - 14% increase in capacity.
Notes: 1st level complete, two corners missing on the second level. Management is still making progress, slowly - as if not to be in a rush to go anywhere. The steady growth though, shows that the team is intent on sticking around.
Baltimore Blood Ravens
Blood Raven Stadium
Capacity: 24,860 End Season 5
Capacity: 37,110 Start Season 6 - 33% increase in capacity.
Notes: 1st level complete with both level 2 sidelines. Holy construction Batman. The Blood Ravens have made it clear that they have the conference title on their minds for season 7 and being able to afford some quality FAs after season 6. With a 33% growth, second only Freedom, they've announced that they're serious about making a run for the title sooner rather than later.
Columbus Spartans
Da Stupordome
Capacity: 37,690 End Season 5
Capacity: 48,030 Start Season 6 - 21% increase in capacity.
Notes: 1st and 2nd levels completed. The potential for this team in season 8 or 9 is going to be unreal. They've got the largest stadium with the smallest payroll and there will nothing that can't afford, FA or equipment wise. It would surprise me if their players carried two sets of equipment and switched what to wear based on their game plan. The only thing that might cause this team to fail is impatience.
New Berlin Blitzkrieg
The Thunderdome
Capacity: 20,610 End Season 5
Capacity: 21,850 Start Season 6 - 5% increase in capacity.
Notes: One level 1 corner built. Disappointment is the key word for the Blitzkrieg. With a slow growth team, they should have been able to build more onto the stadium and getting aggressive with it. Sooner or later, continued slow stadium growth is going to catch up with them. See the notes on the Cleveland Firebirds, that could be the Blitzkrieg in two seasons.
Charlotte Gamebreakers
Punishers Stadium
Capacity: 9,800 Start Season 6
Notes: New team, reset for a new beginning. We're not sure if they had a chance to take out a loan and build onto the stadium or not, so judgment will be held in reserve for now. How they fill the roster now will dictate if the will be successful or not.
Unknown CPU Team
Unknown Stadium
Capacity: Unknown End Season 5
Capacity: Start Season 6
Notes: Team will be reset to default status.
