Tuesday’s game isn’t represented in the records/standings yet. We are both actually 15-4.

And now Tuesday's games are in the standings. (that had not occurred to me).
Just glad to know that I am not going crazy - at least on that particular point.

It's always interesting to me how many different strategic decisions we can make in this game.

Does anybody spend draft and scouting? I spend $0 on it myself, because my philosophy is that I can save that many and acquire the player I want instead.

My kitties seem to ignore the draft for a while (although slowly building up draft points) as I train up guys. Then when I have an open training slot, I have lots of draft points to spend on scouting . . . and hope I find a superstar.
Sometimes I do find one - and think this is a great strategy. Other times I spend a lot of points for little reward - and question what I have been doing. While it is a strategic decision, not sure I recommend it to others

I have not put one red cent into R&D in ages, draft is a crapshoot. And WTF do these scouts know anyway. Every couple of seasons or so I get a Han, a Webb a Taylor, and now with Gonzales a guy that seems worth training strictly by chance. My buddy in D4 Coach Thompson had a QUALITY 19 Yr old mvp caliber guy just dropped into his lap.

Though my best success has been with guys I have picked up with some skills already baked in. Skinner and McLean in the past and Katsumata currently. The big thing though is I now see what going the 1v1F training does for initial development., And for that matter what it does for a guy like Han who has seen a lot of movement this season thanks to that. Plus it helps having a level 2 gym and a level 5 YT.

Your opening montage consist of the proverbial "opening up the play with a great pass... Of alley oops , of give and goes, of teammates working together!

Announcer: as we enter the last week of competition a few things are left to be decided. And some teams are looking in unlikely places for assistance.

Over in big blue there is a three way logjam for the final playoff position.

The Generals sit in the middle of those three and look to handle their business against the landlocked breathers in their home final.

But the battle for the playoffs can lead to some unlikely alliances.

To wit....

The brewskies battle calimari with a eye on adding themselves potentially to the mix.

And the ancient rival deronimo has the bunnies calling

And we also have the revival seeking to steady themselves for the final push against the thunders who are in the position of spoiler.

Over in club red...

The lumberjacks need to post a big number on the botified rollers

While the kitties need to hold home serve against a bama club that is making moves as of late

Inc looks to lock in the last playoff spot against a Suffolk squad finally performing closer to expectations

And bacon looks to build up some positive momentum against masters

Another huge week on the transfer ticker to reset. Alfred's angle and Lee's way will share their viewpoints and Sybil of course will seer into her crystal ball. So don't stall we've got it all as time has come again for BB2NIGHT!

I have a boat load of scouting points for when I get a top 5 pick, but I currently don't do anything. I've had them for 2 dozen seasons?

But similar question, what do people spend on their trainer? Seems like training is a big inefficiency at any level.

I spend 15k a week on a level 4 trainer. No specialty.

So Borcard can shoot...

Another one of those montages of the somber look of concentration, of brooding intensity.

Announcer : as we enter the final week of the regular season so much for so many is left to decide.

Over in big blue it is a four way logjam for the final playoff spot.

The Generals missed a golden opportunity to control their destiny but frittered away opportunity to the breathers. Now they go to visit the revival in dire need of a win.

The brewskies have battled their way to at least be part of the discussion. How they handle deronimo will determine how much of a voice they will have.

And the bunnies and calimari clash with a direct impact on what Saturday night will mean.

Only the breathers and thunders battle in a matchup without implication.

In club red

The kitties will continue their fight to hang onto first against the stuck in seventh Suffolk squad

The lumberjacks battle the baconators in their efforts to keep pace.

Masters get the free lap against the rollers

And Inc battles bama as both teams seek to Garner their momentum for their postseason battles

Sybil will have her say. Alfred's angle and Lee's way will hot you with their hot takes. And a look at the transfer ticker tells us who is for real and who is resigned to their fate. All that and more is part of the slate asv it's time again for BB2NIGHT!

No BB2NIGHT.... Off to Chapel Hill for UNC vs UVA, we got seats literally on the front row on the goal line so this promises to be a helluva night. I just hope it is a victorious night for my boys! First place in the ACC coastal at stake!

an OT thriller between the Mouthbreathers and Revival!
