That moment when after seasons of training, transfer list pick-ups, and you think your 2-3 experiment can work and you can become a playoff team in DIII, and you lose by 12 with an effort edge and a GDP pick.

Guess it's time to rethink where this season is going.

I’m guessing that your 2-3 zone is your go to because you built imyour roster that way. But you guessed he would do an outside offense, was right, but you picked a defense that takes away the inside. Other team shot 13/25 from deep. Wrong defense that game.

Plus they are ranked higher than you and they were at home. Either way, a 2-3 against an outside team just gives them open threes.

It was kind of a test. I have a fair amount of OD at the forward position that I hoped would aid the perimeter defense deficit in the 2-3. However, I was unsure what offense would be run. That was I GDP'ed outside just in case hoping if they went inside the 2-3 would overcome the bad guess. I'm starting to think that strategy may not be viable ever. Maybe back to the drawing board.

Awful quiet in here. Quite a logjam in the middle of the Big 8.

Yeah, was this place quiet last season? At least everyone's teams are active here, even if their chat isn't...

Most forums are quiet compared to when I first started to play this game in season 8, even the discord channel for BB is dying a little bit as well...

I know that I personally have gone whole seasons without opening BB. But I spent years (real life) in League IV, so I always wanted to promote to DIII.
Now what's my goal? I guess I didn't want to be one and done. And that seems like its going to work out... The watering down of the competition - essentially everyone leaving - leading to my promotion also isn't very pleasant thought.

Anyway, I'm Jimmy from Boston. Glad to be here with ya'll. Until it gets boring again...

Flash, I just noticed you were a scout for the U21 team. How long have you been doing that?

Wow, the battle of the Blue! Rum Ham, wins the tie breaker to secure the fourth spot, by about 6 points in differential. Congrats fellas!
Seattle scored more (PF) than anyone else, but also was scored ON more (PA) than anyone else! Check it out. About 2900 in both columns. Neat stat.

Congrats to all playoff contenders, and good luck to those in both brackets, League playoffs and relegation games.
Fight hard to stay, those who are relegation bound.
