Hydro hammered the kitties dispatching them with ease, let's see what round 2 offers in a few weeks hence.

The blues had a bit of a shake up as Generals management missteps in tactics and substitution patterns lead to the house DJ digging deep to find a appropriate exit theme for the near full house to schlepp back to their vehicles after they sat sweating and cursing their heroes fate https://youtu.be/l4w8OX_2cDo

Hydro's hammering of the kitties sent the kitties into a deep tail-spin, where they promptly lost all their games since then, both in the league, and getting bounced out of the cup. Time for the kitties to try and right this sinking ship and see if they can survive league play to be back next season.

Well that was a perfect use of hitting the crunch button. Of course there is hell to pay on the other side.


And now it is The Generals who are on the cusp of free fall.

Haven't been very vocal this season, for a few reasons. Primary is that my focus is on training a U21 PG that I drafted. I can't seriously compete with him in the lineup, so just trying to hang around 6th and win the relegation. Risky strategy, but if I drop to DIV I am positive we will bounce right back up. His training arc should put me in a nice spot in two-three seasons to try to promote.

The new additions to our league all seem to be doing well. Good luck to all the rest of the way.


All I know is you can't use training as an excuse in a private league game. See you tomorrow.

(And I feel your pain. I'm still trying to figure out how I'll survive in II next season, assuming I do this season, when I want to start training two or three 18 yo bigs to be the defensive stoppers to go with my shooters).

Oh man, I didnt realize you were in that league. The rest of the field is chums. Was making me feel better about my team. Luckily, I still have a few days to come up with a good excuse for losing to preserve my sense of pride. I'm leaning towards forgot to set lineup or maybe blaming an unpredictable game engine. Will have to make a game time decision.


Yeah, the quality is definitely lacking. It's doubly frustrating since I'm actually able to field what would be my full-strength lineup thanks to no training concerns, so if I were in a league with some NBBA-level guys, I could see how it would hold up, at least offensively, since my ID would get torched.

Perfect album for the slaughterhouses current cup situation.

Every season the cup goal for General's management is to make the "field" proper IE round of 64 so this is the game that in reality you play to get to. Will not be easy but depending on the GS break it is doable.

But first there is a little matter of a battle with hydro on Saturday night at the Coliseum. And this week in a effort to bolster the sagging attendence and flagging spirit of our fan base we are pulling out the polyester and pet rocks to celebrate the 40th anniversary of a cinematic release that was revolutionary, not to mention the first ever R rated movie I was ever taken. https://youtu.be/upreJjwag0g

Hmm, well not our greatest crowd but everyone did have a good time though Hydro probably wishes we had not given pet rocks to the first 500 thru the doors. Hey they love getting stoned, our fan base was just trying to comply.


And since it was so well received and since management is always happy to bludgen a concept to death, and since this is the only Saturday home date prior to the eclipse we are going to revisit another cinematic classic from the Summer of '77

The coach wanted to reset Annie Hall but that is a little to cerebral for our demographic. Of course star wars was considered but ownership is a trek guy.


So as a compromise this week we reset the film that encapsulates both deep cerebral concerns and solid science fiction fun. And it is also being rereleased!
