Not to mention that I still think Natellio is the best manager in the league.
Usually, managers who are willing to write the power rankings are the best managers among the all. They spend more time in the game, closely analyze all the teams weekly, and know the pros and cons of each team.

As he has better bigs than mine, I assume he will upgrade his backcourt pairs in order to against my stronger guards, one from the money he saved and the other from the PG he is selling. Then he will have a perfect 8-men rotation. His determination can be easily seen as the way he ended his cup game last week.

For me, it is really interesting to have such a great player here, and I look forward our game on Saturday as well.

You, sir, are too kind. However, do not mistake an ability and hobby of analysis for an ability to apply said analysis. Haha.

Our league was absurdly stacked that season.

You've got Chek, currently 12-3 in D2.
The Traptors, 9-6 in D2.
L & P, 8-7 in the NBBA.
And Swanson, 7-8 in Chek's league.

Not to mention me and smedlock were around, and stalzag hadn't decided to tank yet. Crazy.

This season is maybe the toughest since then though. My roster this season is far and away the best I've had, but still probably not the best in the league, despite what Dino would have you believe.

You've got Chek, currently 12-3 in D2.

Yeah that's slightly misleading for two reasons... well both reasons have to do with the Visionaries actually. If I thought I could catch the number one seed after losing a game I'd most likely be 13-2 or 14-1 but I gave a few games up. Secondly, I just sold my entire team off, there is just no way I can possibly beat Peluin. He has an insane team with a mountain of cash behind it. I was going to make a push to promote but I didn't want to lose a spending war against him. I'll tank the rest of this season and after that I'm not going to be able to log on for about two years so it'll be a looooong time before the Flash Mashers make another run at the NBBA...

lol ya sorry about that. they still couldnt get the job done for me even after knocking smith out in the 1st... you'll still probably make the playoffs and he should be back by then. maybe my thugs should be suspended for a game

Ouch. Hey what do your. Rookies skills look like now? My two are coming along nicely!

Nice both of mine have 10 pops so far.

sorry about that again. I was looking forward to seeing what smith could do in the playoffs. and ya the 18 yr old being injured sucks too.

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Weirdly, as of 2pm ET the league standings still haven't updated to reflect last night's games. Didn't hold back the power rankings, though!

And III.6 rejoices!

Some quick updates on some coolness going on around the league:

1) Super T Rex got two wins over the two teams challenging him in the Big 8, firmly placing him as the #1 overall seed and favorite for promotion. Good battle by Chicken Hawks though, and impressive 11(med) Inside Scoring rating. PS. Chicken Hawks and I will go head to head on TV for the last regular season game of the season. Looking like that will determine home court for round 1 of playoffs...

2) Big bummer for Smedlock with Eugene Smith. His team was certainly a dark horse for a playoff run, but with Smith likely going down to 5 or 6 game shape, not sure he'll have the power to take down Super T Rex in an away game. Expect a reloaded team, and even better Eugene Smith, for next season.

3) Does anyone have any idea what to expect out of the Great 8? I could see any of the Top 5 teams making it to the final game. A shocking loss from CA Foreigners has created more parody from an already packed league. The Door Mats will own a one game lead for 1st once the league updates.

4) I'm still watching the Lumberjacks lurking in 4th with a ton of cash from those sales earlier in the season.
