In other news, I'll be back for my 9th season in the league, tied for longest active streak with Iron Dukes. Incredibly, my futility pales in comparison to the Dukes who have made the playoffs every season including 2 trips to the finals! I've only made the playoffs and failed 6 out of a possible 8 times.


Yup, I am proud to have the longest streak of futility in the league. No applause, please.

Should be interesting....We have all talked about how great Extra Crispy's defense is, and it is...but Milwaukee's defense has been one of the toughest in the league as well, especially in big games....Case in point, they just held the leagues most explosive offense to 69 points on a Crunch effort. Whoa!

Phew! I took a big chance playing normal i hope it makes a difference.

On a side note I was really hoping that i would get HCA over the Desert Storm since they were #2 in their conference and i was #1 in mine... I guess it stays with best overall record.

Not sure if all of that was enough to make up the 15 point margin of defeat, but thought there was fun coaching gamemanship going on there.


First congrats to Jason for making the moves to get into the finals. And as Coach Shnuffy pointed out, I over-thought the strategy in the game against AZ. But I also think he was right... even without those miscalculations I doubt we would not have over-come the 15 pts. It was AZ's late season move and great management of GS for the WIN!

Was fun to see a Tremendous Inside D rating!

And as for next season... It's promote or demote!! D1 or D5??

Thanks Stalzag! It was a really good game! Final score was a 15 point difference, but it was close throughout. Not surprised to see your sick ID rating, because seemingly every time we tried to score inside we were turned away. One time my big Chiappi went up for an inside shot against Croy (Point Guard) and the shot was missed....it was very frustrating...fortunately the Patient vs 2-3 zone allowed for some outside success.

I will be rooting for you to promote and join me in the NBBA following next season....unless of course Milwaukee wins the next two games, and then I will be rooting for your demotion to D5

Just wanted to bitch about the TL some more. Same search as I referenced earlier, still yields only 23 players. Better than the 13 from before but still not great. I expected some sort of a pop in quantity in the offseason. Maybe its still to come but the teams should be shaking it up by now.

Either that or has he market permanently shifted up? Is $1.5m the new cheap? Any thoughts?

This guy just sold for $1.55m (30646530) - He was probably the best American player available but still a 25 year old with marvelous OD who can't shoot or pass or play small forward.

The TL has frustrated me for quite some time....sad about the player you mentioned; he's way behind on training for his age....what a waste with such good POT.

It's frustrating that you have to spend so much money for old players who skills are deteriorating and you'll never see half your money back...or like you pointed out, to get a younger player, it's a small fortune.

Anyway, congrats Arizona on the championship. Impressive run from D3 to NBBA in 2 seasons.


Thanks Coach Shnuffy! It was a fun season!
