He smart like ox!

And why do I have to play at your arena again. At my arena the score might be a little closer.

Hypothetically, would you rather play a team that will beat you at home or away?

Answer in a vacuum at home for PD. Assuming all other outcomes the same. (Wins and losses) Otherwise its all about matchups against the big 8. My personal view is RSC is the team to beat this season. If I see IYF destroy teams in the first 7 games I may change my thinking. I thought he was the best team last season but Yuck proved me wrong. I realize Im just a .500 D2 team trying to sqeak into a playoff spot. Just once each season Id like to pull off a shocker. Tough to do in this group..:)


note: I missed playoff by 26 points in PD last season.

I think it's ideal to have any games that you expect to be less competitive (either sure win or highly likely loss) on the road, and have "competitive" games at home. In the conference, of course, you play both teams home and away, but when you play teams where matters too, since teams may throw games for the Cup if they're still in it. If we just look at the standnigs now, I have both of the other 2-0 teams in the conference at home in the first part of the season, which means the back end of the schedule will be more difficult (as opposed to last season, which set up almost perfectly).

That's what I've always thought too. But never really analyzed it or anything.

So I have learned that the only thing more useless than a level 5 doctor (the guy I had who saw Schultz and Thayer get injured this week) is a level 6 doctor (who's already gotten Wray injured in the first half of the first quarter tonight).


Edit: Oh, and the scrub that came in for Wray also injured in the first quarter.

This season is going to blow.

Just to save you the aggravation: never had worse luck than with a level 7 doctor with taping injuries specialty. Not exaggerating.

Well on the bright side, you got to play vs MM before they got their new $160k PF! (I think i've got to play them in a rivalry game soon...)

Good news is it doesn't look like I lose anyone permanently tonight. I do have one fan that needs an ass kicking, though. Every seat but one sold out tonight, so clearly someone didn't think the Paula Cole halftime show was worth it.

I've heard that fan really dislikes fossil fuels.

Maybe he got confused?

After adding another $90k player, MM now has their starters averaging over $100k. How do you feel about that, dog? You probably wish you were in the Great 8... where only 2 teams have a payroll over $375k! (oh & remember last season when some new team complained about ending up in the Great 8?)

And after adding your $85k Center... you're spending almost as much as the Clogs. But why? You're up to no good, aren't you?

Oh and...

It makes me glad I can sustain my current roster for several seasons.
