So the Ravens fan making the calendar puts the Ravens first to "ruin the price" i.e. so he can get them cheaper.

Ravens fans are too busy trying to buy new knee ligaments for their team to bother spending any currency elsewhere.

Ironic, Crash, because you're wearing Raiders ava/sig and we were all trying to find a fibula.

Actually I just started in the middle of this chart and worked my way out for the first dozen teams or so

I started with teams in the middle of this chart to kind of build a pot so that teams with a good chance of making the SB fetch a good price. That's where most of the pot comes from, so it makes sense to bolster bids for the best and worst teams, not the middling ones.

let's see what you think about this approach:

Every day marked with a red square is a day that preseason games are being played. And the team selected has a game on that day. If fans of that team are going to check jsp to talk about their team's game, they will notice the thread

I didn't have the energy to do that tbh, lol. I did keep that in mind for last season, however.

I guess I should put forth a little more effort to match up the auction date with when teams play. ...maybe I'll look into remaking it tonight, taking into consideration your advice and schlaktar's advice

i moved them around so the teams are playing on the day of their bids, but you might be able to swap a couple to improve it. Sadly, no good team plays on Sunday Aug 27th, so that's kind of a hard one to optimize
