MB lost by just 12 last Saturday at home with the same 4 players. The TIEvCRU was enough to win. Perhaps the score is a *little* out of control.

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

My top 2 starters have $114,000 in salary and game shape of strong and prominent.

Prominent game shape is impossible.

This is a unique game. He had every advantage imaginable, so won despite a much weaker lineup.

Also remember that inexplicable things happen in sports. I play football and last year there was a team that we lost to 3 straight times, and then in our fourth game we won by 23 points. I also play hockey. A few years ago my team beat a team 9-1, and I had 5 goals that game. We played them again a month later and lost 3-2, and I didn't score. Sports are unpredictable. The better team does not always win.

Exactly. And to a team that is at the same level as I am. so he loses 86-74 in an outside game at home then, and now all of a sudden scores 50 more points and wins by 20 just because of a CT?

Sorry, I don't buy that.

It's called trying.

Watch a Bruins/Leafs game where the Leafs don't try. 4-0... 5-0...

Now watch. They are crunching.

Sorry, I meant Proficient, not Prominent.

Sure - and in full squad sports, that can happen. If he fielded a full, proper team against me I could shrug it off as bad luck or his advantages taking their toll - but this is not a full squad situation.

Mighty Ballers looked like the only team trying out there.

Is the message when it is Tie vs. Crunch.

Mighty Ballers put more into this game than Silver Palominos.

Is the message you would get, had he gone normal.

Edit; To add, his strengths (although many weaknesses) play in his favor, where his Outside Offense trumps your OD, and his Inside Defense trumped your IS.

The only problem is that the lucky fan ended up playing a mediocre game. That was a fluke. The chances of a lucky fan playing well are low, but still existent. The (very) lucky fan played like something other than a pylon, which made the game a "full squad situation".

All we need now is for Mighty Ballers to come into this thread and chime in / gloat. =)

Based on my interaction with him being in the same league for a few seasons, I'm sure he feels bad about this. I don't think he thought he'd pull off the win. But nothing can be done about it now. Good luck SP in avoiding relegation.

I'm not trying to rub it in. But to me, doesn't look like as big of an upset if you consider HC Advantage, Enthusiasm and strengths of each team. I also think games like these will become a more common with the Game Engine changes planned, where a team with stronger inside defense and rim protection (SB) will commonly beat Inside oriented teams, if they can outscore them with a better outside offense. Likely the teams with strong inside O will often have weak outside defense as well.
