Hey, you weren't supposed to log in with enough time to notice! One of the reasons I like/ hate the buzzerbeater feed, depending which end I am on.

The worst part is that I 'accidentally' bought one of those guys. This is about the 4th time it has happened, but since I am not a supporter, I make early bids to 'save' the player in my bid section. I was expecting one to go for 500-800k more and I ended up with the win. I now have more salary then I can afford, more centers then positions on the court, while still maintaining my training without a coherent plan. At the beginning of the season I bought some cheap dudes that were younger then 22 as I haven't trained more then one of those youngins at a time in 3 seasons or so. All that said and still think I will end up fighting tooth and nail for 7th place again....

Tommee Tippee, the leading bottle seller in Great Britain? Whose nipples are intuitively designed by engineers to replicate mommy bits? No?

I'm about to see how crushing my CT actually was. Lol. Anyone going to be around to chat?

I'm glad I was able to watch the last quarter of our match live so I know it wasn't a true blowout, but one of those games within 3 late where you hit all the free throws and miss longer and longer 3 point heaves.... I hope to exact revenge on the flip side....

Uhhh I'm pretty sure you meant -1000 for getting a dumbo reference right off the bat.


Don't be jealous of my +1 internetz.

As for SF training, I don't expect anything less than what you are experiencing Darykjosef, it's the only training I haven't tried yet and am bored of the big/small style of training. Plus I like the pain.. hell, I was a defense trainer when I left HT. Maybe that's why I ended up leaving. MF/Forward training was so much easier to win with.


I suppose it may not be quite as painful if you're training big men who already have a decent complement of perimeter skills. Timmons did not, for instance (started with inept OD, awful PA and JR), so the improvements haven't been very satisfying. It's hard to get excited when your main trainee pops to mediocre in something.

And funny you should mention HT, because I am a defense trainer over there.

There's a way around this.

Does this reference mean you're going from starting quarterback to punter?

Or that you're now interested in the two-point conversion?

Phew, being a Buckeye fan, I was afraid he meant that he was about to choke versus a SEC team.

I'm glad that I pulled it out. Took a chance and didn't play Elmontas, saving him for the inside team I'm playing in the cup.. er tournament. Didn't help Robison fouled out after 24 or so minutes. But I have to 'let em play' so that my guards don't get pulled :/

Was a fun game to watch at the end though (I too saw the last quarter after working out)

I've been tempted to go back. However, when I think of how long it took for me to get Div III, something like 4 RL years or something silly, I stay retired.
