It likely won't matter if I win or lose at your place.

Let's assume you lose. That way, it'll be easier on you when it really happens.


Already assuming that for the reasons laid out before

Assuming all the favorites win the next two weeks except you lose to Demon Hoosiers, there will be a 3 way tie for 3rd place.

Hmm...

If I beat Demon, I'm in. If I lose I will have to have W&C lose and make up some PD in the process.

...Do you realize that at this point, you've put the idea in my head that I can play my scrubs against DH and have a chance at denying you a playoff game? Meaning I could play a first round PO game without seeing the names "Gipson" or "Zhuri" in the opposing depth chart for the first time in-- what?-- three seasons? Hmm...



Exactly. You wouldn't dare miss the chance to see my smiling face again!

I assume that foul taste in your mouth was a result from knowing that once my team is completed with excellently trained bigs, your players will have no recourse but to cower in fear every time we play?


By the time they're 'excellent', I probably won't be in the same div as you. We'll be wallowing in Div III due to player turnover and SF training. Mostly SF training.

I just don't like bigs training, very little differential in training types unless you decide to train up some outside skills, more of a PF/SF feel. At least with guards you can make PG types or more of a SG type. Not too much of a difference, but it's something.

Man you got a lot of training to do still on those guards. Or are you just bailing on them?

Figures, seems we're the late night drunken booty call of the NBBA.

I agree that they are moving up slowly. I'm sorta disappointed in them.

But really, it's just that I really want to try and make some killer SFs. I'm also not sure how much longer I"ll keep my team. Combine long training period for the ideal (my ideal) SF and my enthusiasm dropping for this game, I think that starting ASAP is paramount. I'll train these guards through their 21st year, and then turn over the team.

My favorite times on this game is making my team new again. So I'm really looking forward to it.. I'm counting down the days til the end of next season.

They look to be on pace not slow. ~$40-$50k next season would be right where my guys are/were.

Some of them you might even be able to train into a SF. Maybe you should post their skills and we'll see.

Can someone just let me know who will be tanking against me so that I don't have to think about my orders?

Maybe they will hit that salary, but I doubt it. And of course, the wage increase has occurred after your guard hit the 40-50k mark. So if my guys hit the mark, it'll mean they're behind what yours were still. Also depends on how much defense plays into the formula. I always thought it was of lesser value than JS, and definately JR. If that isn't the case, then maybe. A big maybe.

As for posting, Jelme asked me for Waller's skills earlier. I was concerned about the timing of this considering it happened 2 or 3 days before our teams were to play. Hmm, still makes me wonder.
