Hey Guys,

what would you do? I'm facing a much better team this week in the cup, but he will play the top seed of the other group tomorrow and therefore could very well hope that I'll tank the cup game anyway and TIE and play some of his scrubs so I could tank my very winnable game tomorrow AND waste all my enthusiasm AND my game shape AND probably end up with nothing... the longer I describe it the more stupid it sounds, but I'm somehow drawn to it, so please stop me! :-)

You screw up your whole season like this. Even if yoou win, you're kicked out in the next round. Not very clever, neither in the interest of a fair cup competition.

Thanks! I'm so gonna blame you if this won't work out ;-)
But seriously, I think I'll end up 4th-6th in my league, no matter what I do, which isn't really that much of a difference...

Go for the win! The satisfaction of causing an upset in the cup is way better than worrying about losing a league game!

I always have blinders on during the cup run....The cup is the most important. Players get the most experience from cup games. In my eyes...nothing beats a long cup run. I would just TIE in your next game and go normal in the CUP.
BTW..It is the only way for lower div. teams to get into the BB3..And looking for scrimmages suck..Good luck

Thanks, but do you really think I have a shot at winning at playing normal? I thought this was kind of an all-in situation... My starters have already logged heavy minutes... this is my opponent: (34242)
