Patrice Wilson was involved though! Perhaps best known as the rapper from the Friday video, though he's had a few more hits since then. (Can't stop fat Usher!) He even raps in CHINESE in one video, no lie. I'll BB mail it to you to prove it.


Chinese? No, you keep your dirty BB-mails and Patrice Wilson interracial sex-tapes to yourself. I don't care what links you've been clicking on. I'm not falling for your shenanigans this time around.

My first game in the melon garden. Very distracting place to play.

I swore the crowd noise was artificial, but we conducted some research and determined it was real and spectacular.

In other news, we've still got two teams left in the Cup. It takes a very good and smart manager to succeed in the league while going this far in the Cup - which means I should start asking shikago what to do with my lineups each week because I am so not doing this right.

If anyone's planning on spending money on this seasons II.4 draft. Don't. It's shaping up to be truly truly awful.

That sounds awful suspiciously like there are exactly two good players and you're trying to ensure that the second one makes it to the 17th pick. I suppose the only rational thing would be for me to spend a ton of money to scout everyone to prevent that.

And it looks like we have a new team in the league. I haven't had to type those words midseason since I think back in IV.

Did we just get a new team here in DII?
Isn't that somewhat ruthless and cruel?

Regarding the draft, I'm trying a new strategy to find good players (using the skill search options) and thus far what I have found is amazingly dismal.

No more ruthless and cruel than having to look at Morgan Menard's preternaturally ugly mug every time I view my roster. But, yeah, I've asked about it.

I had to look and see, and dang, he is ugly. On my roster, Laurent Piquet has pretty impressive Peter Griffin chin, which is somewhat obscene. Spencer looks like he's stressing about something, and Dan Jeffrey is clearly on some sort of hallucinogen.

That's crazy. Teams used to start in D5 at BB's peak.
Making new teams get blown out by 100 points/game probably isn't the best way to keep new users. (shrug)

Oh & unless they fired their best players already, wow what a horrible roster to start with. Only 2 guys under 25, both with star potential. One of them a $1k scrub. The only positive thing is getting D2 TV money without a salary floor.

OMG! Honeydew melons on a stick!

They're actually really good. (and insanely popular) Go to your nearest Korean grocery store, give one a try, then report back.

Yeah, so wait a second. When they demote, will they demote all the way to DV? Or do they have cascade down one league at a time? I remember when I started I was placed in DIV, and it was a big deal in that everyone said I should have been placed in DV. Even in DIV, I stood no chance, but got overconfident when I beat a bot team in one of my first games (but didn't realize what a 'bot team' was at that time), and then got utterly pummeled intro oblivion by the active teams. Relegation never felt so good.
