And it was complete BS.

There's no way that should have happened. Look at the box score. Maybe I'm getting out of touch a bit, but I don't see how there's any way that a loss should have been possible based on those performances.

I think this is the point at which the game is no longer fun for me. I've had several games like that this season, and it's no longer worth caring about this game anymore. I suppose I'll finish off the U21 season, maybe make a hard push in the B3. But other than that, I'm done.

I am in agreement with you on the BS. That's a rough loss. Don't go too hard on me this Saturday haha.

Good luck with the rest of the B3 this season.

The greatest of all time.

- Thoroughbreds lost was expected due to bankruptcy as only 3 players were dressed.
- For the other game, I don't have a clue why they can beat Secret Agents

Tough game next week facing Pain Train PRO

Greerzilla, please don't let Paul Gaize injure my players again. He took my guard out for two weeks in our last game and he took my other player out for 3 weeks when he was playing for O-Rod. =)

Sure that's a shocking upset, however, it's not like Secret Agents had their A team out there. With the line-up he put out there a number of Div III teams could potentially pull-off an upset if everything falls into place. One player got hurt relatively early and then another fouled out in the fourth quarter - recipe for an upset.

Congrats to Sony Rox ur Sox for a great win.

It's true that I didn't have my best players in the game today, but it's not like I sent out random guys. I planned things out so that the lineup I had out there tonight would be good enough to win against the other teams best lineup (even on the road and with an effort difference). At the very least, I thought that I was safe tonight.

I will admit that I was surprised that my opponent used several of their best players in the starting lineup today, and that they bothered using normal effort. Still, based on the box score, I should have been fine, even with Tamiazzo's injury. I just don't understand what went wrong, and it's beyond frustrating.

I know what you mean. This season has been outright ridiculous. I drew a newly promoted team (like myself) in the first game and had to CT him which left my enthusiasm in shambles and he guts right after, then a RNG loss, then a game where I didn't set my lineup after not being on BB in disgust, and if that wasn't enough I draw GM-RiPs team in the cup immediately after. I knew at that point the season was over, so I decide to tank....then what? 2 players that I try to sell for reasonable prices multiple times (middle of EV, what i bought them for) don't, i list them for $1 and lose ~half a mill on them in addition to paying their salary a few times for no reason losing me another 500k

These are the kindve of Cup upsets people like me dream about! This is why I play Buzzerbeater! This is the wow factor!

But seriously tough luck Mogul, dont quit!

Also Sony Rox ur Sox now faces the Philospher Kings, does the cinderalla story continue? I highly highly doubt it... . But congrats BuzzyG! Youve made all of us underdogs proud, do it again!
