The Clogs were shockingly bad on defense. Only forced 13 turnovers. Allowed Niski to make 4 shots. (A guy that once shot 13-274 for an entire season.) My big 3 all scored & so did a fan.

Imagine what a guy like Dean Jeter or Christopher Glover could do.

Sorry about the injury. Though he did manage to have a negative +/- in a game you won by 161 points. So maybe you're better without him.


I knew you loved me, protecting Namo from the full measure of shame he's truly due for his performance. A -1 performance in six seconds of gameplay is essentially a -480 pace, which is fully three times worse than Senor Sourpis and his lemony-fresh stream of suckiness. You saved me from the ignomy of losing to Yuck by about 240, then. Thanks again!

100-70 Clogs.

Actual score: 179-18. Prediction Grade: D-

You remind me of this now:

I'm pretty bad at prediction!

Anyway, Saturday looks to be the game of the season.

The clogs are down to a 9 man rotation where as Yuck has an 8 going.

If this were played in a neutral court, I'd probably predict the Yuck to win.

As is this is a battle between good offense vs good defense.

I believe the winner will be the Clogs. But if an early injury to Thayer and the Yuck could pull off the upset.

GS Warriors are gonna win. That's a given.

Will be an interesting semifinals to watch no matter. The top 4 salaried teams made the semifinals.

Something's wrong with BB when I get a really nice balanced PF/C for only $4k, but I'm forced to pay 10x as much for a useless old guy. (thanks day traders)

But Armand Carod can potentially be the worst player in BB history. Once his ID drops 2 levels & his FT drops 1 level... he's all atrocious. Including experience. And experience is the lone "skill" you can't have/make drop.

I already have a much older guy who has never scored a single point. (4288724). So no point in holding Carod out of PL games?

You are easily the most interesting fella on this site. Sure to be on an FBI watch list as well.

You used to be such a stickler for doing things the right way, but now you're all about exploiting the whole age/skill drop phenomenon. At least Bloody Eagles had the conviction to keep on doing things the way they did things.

There's a handful of Lethargy knockoff teams suddenly springing up. I'm not sure why. It's the BB equivalent of something like this, only not as close:

Or a Ronex watch, etc...

(I found the "Robert Cop 3" really funny for some reason)

If he was American I wouldn't mind buying a guy for that cheap even if he was 36. He has been transferred 15 times in the seven seasons so one thing is true, he still has market value, even it resembles the dollar value of $0.

But I'm not going to screw up my merchandise income to scrounge around for cheap vets.

The implementation of Utopia has changed people's perspectives on oldies. It should be obvious that the market value for old players is simply too low most of the time in comparison to young players.

The one thing that makes old players better than young players is having cash wrapped up in the buy price. This is because that money could be used elsewhere especially for teams with a growing arena. Once the arena is finished than it makes more sense to start buying younger players when the market price makes sense.
