So we're just past the all-star break in season 46. Of note -- In team ratings, Smallfries are crushing everyone with a rating of 181.5. The next best rating is DC with 137.5! Now I'm not exactly sure how the team rating on the league page is calculated, or what it means exactly, but a margin that big is impressive regardless!!!

Also not sure how i was leading the league in point differential at the AS break. But I'll take it. Just focused on training my 6 kind of scrubby trainees.

Wow! Why in the world would the Hemet Hooligans CT a meaningless out of conference game? At home no less. They were only a single game out of first place... even had they won (which they didn't), what's the long-term upside of doing that?

That is impressive indeed. I'm not sure how the rating is calculated, but it appears a lot of weight is put on defense and that is important comes the playoffs. I've been crushing the offensive numbers the past few seasons but struggle come playoffs time hence why I'm not in the top 5 of the rating despite leading the lead in many offensive categories. Can't seem to find the right balance of offense/defense.

It's looking like this is your season to promote though! Especially with no D2 super teams in our conference, for a change.

The team rating is the combined average rating of all players on your team that play, I believe. So go to your team stats page and add up the ratings.

So if you have a lot of players this will be inflated, as well if you have a few guys that average super high ratings.

Basically, what this means is my team has good depth. That's all.

With that being said though, I think I very well could be undefeated if I wasn't trying to compete in the cup ( then I forgot to set my lineup in my last cup match :().

Good luck to everyone pushing for the championship.

I'm glad we aren't in the same division. I feel like you're team is my nemesis. Always shuts me down.

Also, this is an example of what poor GS can do to a team. My guys were flat as the world out there.

I've never seen a crazier plus/minus split between starters and bench players.

We shall see. Although I need to make some moves to shore up my defense. Nonetheless, even if I do promote, I don't think my team as constructed is ready for D2.

Woah, a serious injury during a scrimmage game? I didn't think that was possible, anyone else ever experienced that?

Wow, congrats to Footpath for pulling off the upset on DC. Didn't see that one coming.

Also, this is going to be a very interesting matchup between Lengends and Milwaukee. Good offense vs good defense.

On my side, hope I can hold the Lillard/McCollum like duo, that Footpath has going on, in check.

Yeah unfortunately. If anything I've found whenever I play regular starters in scrimmages they were *more* likely to get injured. Would almost rather just take the game shape hit and not even risk it. I had 2 injuries in each of the last 2 scrimmages myself. Though nothing as serious as you had.

Sucks that it may have cost you first place. But at least you've got everyone back and ready for the playoffs!

Think you're the heavy favorite to win it all. The schedule is really breaking your way too. You essentially had a first round bye, then now have HCA + enthusiasm over Footpath. I'd say the Lengends have the next best shot with a loaded roster, then me third, and Footpath 4th. Though... I kind of am rooting for Footpath to win it all. Even were I fortunate enough to make it to the finals to face them, I'd still kind of want them to win.

BTW, just glanced at our previous game again. You're right, it really was insane! I mean my leading scoring for the game only played 9 minutes!!!
