Mass Eisodus! Former Players Form Playing Swarm! It's Mildly Effective! (160 views)

The TMBSL welcomed two new expansion teams this offseason with much pomp as well as circumstance but it wasn't all hoopla and razz-ma-tazz. The crackerjack accounting firm of Robit Robit and Cybernetic Organism notified the league office several hectares ago that there were insufficient human elements to satisfy minimal operating requirements, which at the time the office dismissed as "a bunch of nerds, shut up nerds," but after the New Orleans and malign Southron Carolingian franchises entered administrative operation under receivership it became clear the spreadsheets had had the right of it all along, leading inexorably (not to mention sexably) (ladies) to today's announcement:

"The The Main Board Sim League is honored- no... pleased- no... well, we're not displeased to welcome back from the farflung foreign leagues of Spain, the Ukraine, Israel, Nebraska, and other points east the dregs of the last two draft classes. We're talking real bottom of the barrel here folks, players who couldn't even hack it when crumbums like Reddish and Bridges were still staggering around the parquet hardwood, I honestly don't even know if they've shot a basketball in the last two years but if they did they probably bricked it, real pathetic losers. No offense. No questions."
