I hardly think you can describe your team as "America's Team". lol.

So can I describe his team as "America's Team"? Or will you try to limit *my* freedom of speech also?

I, for one, absolutely cannot wait to follow every major event of America's Team, right here in this very thread! (boo-yah)


(Wow, my first ever visit to this forum & not only did I find out about an election just in time to vote, but I also found a nationwide newspaper dedicated to covering America's Team! What a country!)

you can call his team "America's Team" but that doesn't make it true. That is all I am saying.

Good point. My *calling* him that doesn't make it true... His *being* that is what makes it true! America's Team!!!

(Even the highly respected Panther Press confirms he is indeed America's Team! Are you challenging that fine publication's journalistic integrity? I hope not...)

In case you did not notice you are not the only person in america, so you saying that I am not "America's Team" does not make it true.

You're really too modest; I think that "The World's Team" really does a better job capturing your status in this game.

All right, whatever, all I was doing was poking a little fun at him for using the national forum to post something like this while there is a perfectly fine press release feature in this game,and even if you don't want to pony up for supporter a lot of people do it in their league forum, and then proclaiming his team "America's Team". It just seems a little arrogant to me.

Toccoa Panthers At Smurf Village Smurfs

Tonight will mark the second game of Season 17. The Panthers look to stay undefeated as they face another 1-0 squad, the Smurf Village Smurfs. We got an interview with Panther manager Buckeyefan01.

R- "How do you plan on stopping the outside attack of the Smurfs?"

B- "We recently added a great defender and shooter to our team. Hopefully he help slow down the attack."

R- "What are your plans for this season?"

B- "We want to win the championship and get out of D.IV. If we do not get out soon we might go bankrupt. We also are having to sell some players to get some cash in."

You can view the game live at http://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/36170697/reportmatch.as.... Opening tip will be at 8 p.m.

As my six year old son has recently discovered the Smurfs and is heavily into them right now, I can give you some free scouting. Normally I'd say you have nothing to be concerned about, but panthers do fall into the general cat classification, and the Smurfs always seem to get the better of cats (case in point, Azreal, who I think is 0-38 against them). Of course, I think that is more a tactical failing; Azreal and Gargamel both seem to try isolation offenses when in reality all they should go is look inside as Smurfs, being short, are exceptionally unlikely to have adequate interior defense or rebounding.

Defensively, though, don't overcommit - Smurfs are known for their sharing and we know that if you double up on one of them, they'll find the open smurf to smurf the open J. The Full Court Press is right out, as they've demonstrated their ability to dominate scramble situations against Gargamel and Azreal. I'd probably go with a 1-3-1, again on the theory that they're not going to be able to do anything inside.

Please let me know if you're going to be playing against Scooby Doo later; I've been subjected to a lot of their tape recently too.

Thanks for the inside report.
