Thanks Tangosz and CrazyEye, I forgot about the taping injuries specialty. I have massage to help with GS. That makes a whole lot more sense.

Somedetsfinest--I don't really appreciate having my post essentially called silly and my tactical decisions called poor. I went into the game knowing that there was a good chance I would lose, but my best player had already played 48+ minutes per week and I was playing another player at his position for training purposes. It's my first season in D.IV, I have no big men worth mentioning, and my whole plan all along was to just make money and train my two young guards while not getting relegated. In that sense, I had already surpassed my expectations for the season by securing 5th place at worst and being competitive for a playoff spot. Had I made it into the playoffs, I wouldn't have contended for a title. Would it have been nice to see my team in the playoffs? Of course. If I played my top lineup, would I have won? Yes. But I took a more long-term approach that necessarily involved me risking being eliminated from playoff contention, and the gamble didn't pay off. But how is that silly or a poor tactical decision?

And just to clarify, I wasn't upset because I lost (like I said, making the playoffs wasn't a concern for me), I was upset because I thought I had been cheated out of a win by the game engine. Had I lost fairly (which it turns out I did), I would have been completely ok with it (which I am, now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up). I don't appreciate getting insulted, though, and I do feel insulted by your post. Just saying.

Well, I apologize if I hurt your feelings.

I will respond in a bbmail as I don't want to do so again.

I got your message and sent you a response. Hopefully that will help clear things up and put this to rest. I can respect and admire your willingness to apologize for any unintentional offense he may have given, even though you stand by your original point. That's a +1.
