When I saw I won on the road, I allowed myself to think "Yeeess, pulling away in the conference!" Looked at the league page and hopes were dashed. It was astounding, I didn't want to believe at first. So many?

Well, back to where we started.

-Tucumcari played the Chargers tough

-upstart Kurgans beat the NBBA champs

-Toronto took Eugene to OT

ya, the Big8 is better. We have Bullish, 2 upstarts (Barbarians & Kurgans), plus 2 mainstays (Toronto & EDH).

-Weren't the Tech Fouls vying for the NBBA Title last year ... ? Now they are in last place (although, poised to make a comeback, I am sure)

Ya, the Blue league is tough ... even if Bullish loses its best player to injury at the worst possible time, I don't like my chances ...

wow. looks like Tangosz is cashing in his chips. looking over the players available and reviewing his record, all i can see are reasons why not to do this:
-- 5-3 W/L, including whupping my tail.
-- players are young, and most are American.
-- the whole team is pretty salary efficient: a winning record and a payroll below the league average.
-- revenues are decent to good. the whole enterprise has to be making money.

when the stadium expansion is thrown into the mix, i can not connect the dots.

bored >> aforementioned logical reasons.

this week's three games I ran all on default lineups, because I never logged in enough to set anything specific. My only thought it that a new crop of trainees will make things more interesting. We'll see.

The arena expansion was simply to finish off what my final stadium build was planned to be. This way I'll never have to do another expansion again.

I did notice that you were no longer doing weekly expansion, so I figured something must be up. I still have those 2 random bleachers seats that I expanded 1 at a time just to mock your expansions, and by now my OCD self has gotten used to them being there.

Bored ?? This is the Major Leagues, baby !!

Njords Hakarl sells all its players while in great position for the playoffs. 10" quits competitive play, while just a move or two away from being the best team in the country. I don't get it.

Is Bullish getting bored ?? If anybody has a reason to get bored (with lack of competition), its Bullish. No one can touch the guy ... I suppose he'll get bored after winning the Cup & the NBBA this year ...

Well, after the worst injury streak of team history that saw the team's subsequent best player go down injured in back to back games, timed perfectly with 2 sets of back-to-back road league games that almost bankrupted my team, the inability to give away the injured star talent that lead one to be fired (what' wrong with injuries in this game? Well, the fact that a young talent that could anchor an NBBA team, but cheap enough to afford long term and build around had to be fired because I couldn't give him away is example A), I've finally made some strides. I finally was able to bring in some back-up talent perfect to chew up minutes in the first half of the season's cup games so my starters can stay in top form! Wait, that part of the season is over now? Oh well, better late then never. My d4 team is ready, grrrr.

Oh hell, my "holding" bid just won it without me realizing while writing that last message. I guess it's game on.


I enjoy long walks on the beach to go with my run on sentences and stream of conscious oh look at the butterfly.
