Must be for the Senior Tour.


I would agree with that.

I would like to see this get implemented. 30+ NT? 40+ NT? All fun things.

I have a feeling that most NTs will be full of 30+ players in about 10 seasons.

As for the 40+ NT, it would be interesting to see how player skills decline at those ages. Depending on how that goes, I wonder how the player market will look once the first big wave of trained players hits retirement age.

Piss poor is a bit harsh. I prefer substandard. I consider myself the 8th team in conference in personnel. Doing everything the same as everyone else just leads to demotion. I've thought everything out and weighed options. And if it all fails? I finish 8th where I would have with a normal Tie-Tie-Tie-Tie start.

First game I've CT'd in over a season.

well, your conference is alot weaker than you give it credit for. for f**k's sake, it wasn't like they were the 2006 NBA west coast conference or anything. a team at 5 and freaking 17 didnt even have to play a qualifier, they were safe in spite of that spectacular ineptitude! plus you lost your one elite team. so there are 2 good teams, 1 mediocre teams, 1 team that decisively blew last year, and 4 new teams. i think any new team should be aiming for 4th in the conference.

Upon closer investigation, it appears that I've played the other 2 promotees from D3 a couple times. It seems I know how my team stacks up against them. I think they will finish 4th and 5th. It also appears that the other new team is from the NBBA. So with the 2 good teams, we already have 5 spots filled.

The problem with that mentality is that you're putting yourself at a disadvantage for the next couple of games. I haven't checked your schedule, but you're nearly certain to lose on Tuesday with half the enthusiasm of your opponent. Everyone in the league looks to have a cake 1st round Cup game, so you'll likely still have an enthusiasm disadvantage come next Saturday.

Congrats on your first dII win, but at what price?
