I chalk the EDH vs Visionaries result up to the HCA advantage which is ridiculous in this game IMHO. So moral of story, get HCA for the win.

Sure, that's lucky. And I pointed it out. Illusion doesn't seem too interested in the forums, I don't know how big a factor he thinks losing his three $10-15k salary players was. I doubt I needed that advantage to get past him but I wouldn't fault him for complaining. That's a very rare and visible factor that turned a competitive-but-felt-I-had-the-edge game into a boring 27-point blowout. So everyone knows what happened there and no one liked that game either.

A little more frustrating to lose on account of refs and synchronized off shooting days. Not to pour water on the trash talk fire but you do have a good team. If we played that game 100 times I think I'd only win about 60 of them...

Yeah, home court is worth like 31 points now I guess,
(32851489)
not counting the fact that my scoring SG (Vezbickas) was injured for that game, or that I upgraded Starampoulos to Aouati since then...

I guess I'll have to change my priorities for next season to take that into account.

I have always had a good FT shooting team.

I don't think I have ever bought a decent guy with less than inept FT Shooting and I train it at least once a season, it adds up when you have a stable roster.....

I'd settle on beating you 2 out of 100 times, as long as both wins are in the next three games. =D

Even if you then drew him week 1 in the cup... for 97 consecutive seasons?

I just wanted to be more like Stuart Scott & jumped on the opportunity to use the term "ridirkulous"... Speaking of ridirkulous, I had a truly "ridirkulous" game at the FT line at the beginning of the month: (32851507), 21 of 21 from the line. (went 17-28 in my playoff loss.)

Took at quick glance at your first 2 games this month: 11-17 FT (32851503), 10-16 FT (32851510). & your 1st round win: 5-8 FT (35876977). All come out to around the same %. Maybe those games are anomalies though. When we played you were 10-13 FT & I was 18-28. luckily it didn't cost me & i still got the W. (boo-yah)

----

FT shooting seems really random, at least on my team.
All the same player:
Season 10 -- 53-77 (69%) (awful / inept at the time)
Season 15 -- 45-71 (63%)
Season 16 -- 40-52 (77%)
So that's 69% on 77 attempts at awful to inept... After 5 seasons of training it drops to 63% (71 attempts), then rises to 77%!?! Once had a guy with tremendous FT shoot about 78% for the season (highest stamina & exp on the team too..)
