Im amazed my low salary roster played so well in this match , each one of his players literally had more salary than my entire first team put together. If it had not been for an abysmal fourth quarter i might even have won this match. I also put some tactical titivations onto my team and switched a few players defensively. I got the mismatches i wanted but i still expected to lose heavily by 40+ when i look at the players he has compared to mine.

Yes but even at that he is playing 4 30k guys and a 70k center against my 3k salary dudes and 20k center , his guys were in great gameshape as well. Seems his players must be very innefficient or mines very efficient.

Why on earth would you crunch that game? You're sure to lose it anyways.

You should have saved your enth and used it on games that matter to keep your from relegating. You have games coming up vs. #6 and #7 in your league. Definitely more winnable and more important to win in your current situation.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

The whole idea of playing CT and being astonished by a win is flawed from the start.

At least one person understands the bigger picture. I wanted to see and test my players in action in that game so I CT, and yes im tanking. Im sick to the back teeth of English drafts being wasted by neglect or ending up in greedy daytraders collections. Im actively going to do something whilst training my projects.

I'm quite curious about one single detail ... your offensive tactic : princeton !
Actually, i do have a low salary roster (1/2 value compared to most teams in my conference), and i do play regularly with princeton offence. I feel i work it out quite well (in french div.5 ... maybe i should keep it in mind before comparing) and i think i'll keep playing princeton in order to find the best balance for this tactic and lower salaries at the max.
What are your guys good at? What balance between primaries and secondaries offensively ? Defensively ?
I mean did the offensive tactic have an impact on the game score aswell (in addition of CT) ?

You see i was trying to guarantee i got the number 1 pick and needed to kill away my excess enthusiasm , what better way to do this then give my all and see how my training plan is coming along.

I understand *why* you did it, but your reasoning for doing so is flawed. You're not getting an accurate picture of "how my training plan is coming along", as you've used CT.
