I hope that BW will survive so I can maybe get enough money to travel to Korea and watch it in time. These news are good to read about.

Even if I didn't care much for BW news (mainly a SC2 follower, sorry), the recent succession of news struck me as quite bad. But seeing this makes me think that maybe things aren't ALL that bad

Nice to see adequate SC2 users remembering and being respectful to their "roots"

KT renews Violet's contract
Fomos DES
Brief overview: KT showed that they are indeed a loyal and caring team by signing a contract with Violet. Violet, who has been diagnosed with leukemia early in the season and hospitalized ever since, said that he's very grateful for the support from his team. He is optimistic about his treatment and recovery process, and wishes to return to the stage soon.

This is by far the greatest news here. Amazing. Love KT.
BW Forever. Flash is the Ultimate Bonjwa.

Not really a BW follower, but about Flash's injury. Is injury pretty common in the BW scene or is it something that happens that rarely happens now and then? I known that Boxer been suffering some injury for sometimes but don't really know that is it a common things among the Bownja?

So basically SKT1 and KT are like the Red Sox and the Yankees. And Fox/Oz/MBC are like the Royals/Devil Rays/Pirates. Except the revenue disparity is even higher and there's no revenue sharing or other ways for lesser teams to make ends meet.

I know this is suppose to be an upbeat thread, so sorry to be debbie downer here.

Nah, the small sponsors are drifting out and only the big sponsors are remaining.

Now all it just depends on whether or not a big sponsor will form an 8th team. If that happens, BW should remain stable for a long, long time.



Yeah, that was what I was getting at. The rich sponsors are throwing money at players and buying championships so the poor sponsors are basically saying, "Fuck this. We can't compete."
