It can only be the weakest final four if I am not part of it

If you are in it and have no competition then it is weak.

Hahahahaha!!! Dude..I am in low salary TANK mode until the playoffs. I should be an easy game for both of you.
What? Are you guys going to go TIE? I seriously doubt that....Why would he or you want to help each other out?...As I see it....Winner gets 100K, 3 game training week, and a chance for a 125K payout and there will be NO HCA next game..That is huge..What does the loser get? A scrimmage on Thursday with no game on Tuesday and probably team training...........No CT= craziness
What's that quote from ROCKY 3.......There is no tomorrow, there is no tomorrow!!
If there is a time to use a CT, it is next Thursday....Next Tuesday there are only 2 options to chose from, Playoff Normal playoff CT.

it is pretty cut and dry. Stunners got the weakest team left in the cup. He took his second loss in the BB3 and has little chance at the Final 32. So, even with a TIE, I don't see you beating him. So as long as there is a chance that you get him, I just don't see it......BTW...Sapporo will be CTing for sure.. Swoosh and Isehara will be CTing for sure...So, when you say that you will have no chance in the semi's if Yoks CTs..is not true...you are hoping he doesn't CT but he should try and win and not be thinking about a Final 2 games away.

I would like to say something serious in this Cup thread now before people set & commit to their line-ups tomorrow.

I did say to some of the managers that I would step aside in the cup competition this season. Now of course this might not sit well with some of you on the other hand it was met with approval by others.

Its a given Sapporo will CT me and I'm sure it will be an interesting match-up.... in the semi's (if I get through) - I was planning to bow out....

So, whats peoples thoughts? If you'd prefer I didn't, just say now as it will influence my and I imagine others line ups tomorrow and use of enthusiasm.

I appreciate we are closing in on the most competitive JBBL we've ever had & I can't win the BB3.... I guess this is my offer of a free pass for someone to win the cup that at some point in the future I may ask to recall a favour but I know the game & don't expect anything.

I would imagine knowing this will allow people to CT on Thursday knowing that they could infact end up in a final 3 and not final 4...

I see where you are going with this....

I thought my week was tough but now I see you are playing Yoks at home on Tuesday..... now if I was Yoks & this might sound perverse, I'd bow out the cup.... try take me at home & then CT you away....

I bet Taiyo would take 2 league wins & a cup defeat right now... if you were in his position, wouldn't you?

I can't wait to see the new transfers hit the wire... I'm sure someone is going to splash some cash :D

Like I said Sharman.....Don't hurt you trainees...Do what BC Tooros used to do...Out at the final 4 so you get a three game week.

Did Wolph write this for you? Complete rubbish advice. What? If Liverpool were 8 points adrift the top team and in the FA cup final, you would want them to throw the cup game to focus on the league game. That is B.S.. Yoks is 3 wins from the BB3...Sure he is going to make the playoffs but then he has to win 4 games to get to the BB3 and with HCA in the playoffs not assured and a buying deadline in place( In the cup you can buy players until 6:45, 15 minutes before the start.).The easiest route to the BB3 is through the cup. You know this and everyone knows this.
For me...The cup is the most important...The playoffs are still 2 months away..I would take the game I thought I could win( for him Tuesday) and then CT the cup..hope for the Swoosh/Isehara winner and then playoff normal in the semi's.....Win in the CUP and there is still hope for good draw...lose and go home....easy choice to make I think..
