Agreed, I'm just not so sure how I feel about that particular change - that's sort of the concept behind the defensive changes. I know to run 3-2 zone against you to offset your motion offense. It will probally just turn out to have a similar affect like the transfer list change did on game shape. Just enough to make us question it, but in the long run to real lasting impact.

Maybe... and it remains to be seen how much of a difference that will make in-game. But I think at the very least it will help combat the LI dominance that's gone unchallenged at the higher levels for so long. As you said, against me you can run a 3-2 zone (or even a 1-3-1) whereas against the LI teams, I can't always rely on a 2-3 zone.

At the very least, it may force some LI teams to go with Low Post instead unless they don't mind absorbing the penalty. I'm a fan of the change.

PS - Have any of you guys played around with the player appearance editor? My new draftee (30647188) just had facial reconstruction surgery. I wish I could give him a mask like Amar'e or Rip Hamilton!

My draftee Meyers has gone through the Uglyinator. I won't link to him directly because that might be viewed as a hate crime against those who accidentally click on the link.

Yep Meyers is bad. Can BB players be virgins?

He's certainly trying.

So not one of you sumbitches could be bothered to lose in the first round of the Cup? (I'm looking at you, Cassville). If I weren't so goshdarned pleased with the number of high salaries I see being shipped out of the league, I'd probably have to draft a very sternly worded rebuke to the lot of you. I haven't looked at the second round draws yet for the most part, but in my Charlie Brown voice: "I got a bot."

I tried to lose. My being in or out of the cup will have little to no impact on your season however.

Speaking from experience last season, loosing this early in the cup is a financial disaster. Let's face it, at the Div II level, you really need to make it at least to the All Star breeak.

This season at least, the Cup is a nice bonus - the promotion bonus to attendance is serving me quite well so far. I'm just hoping that I can leverage that and a decent Cup run to hopefully build out my arena a little more to hopefully have the capacity to still make solid gate revenues once that bonus wears out.

well, it would appear that if you want home court advantage come playoff time, you better beat Delta because no one is going to catch them in point differential.

I'll certainly try to help. I'm confident that I won't lose by 96 at least.
