You're probably right, Saul—and sometimes the shoe is on the other foot:-) When our teams make great comebacks, it's awesome. When the opposing team does it, there's something wrong with the GE:-)

The Dragons-Machines game was the most epic not-collapse I've ever seen.


Yeah very frustrating. I never know what to make of my team's performance in games like that. Was I just overperforming early and regressing to the mean the last quarter? Do I have stamina issues? (None of my starters have below 6 stamina and my team as a whole averages 6.2 so I don't think that this is the case.) Is it just a fluke? Or is it just the nature of the GE to keep games close between equally matched teams? (Maybe trying to simulate the team with the lead taking it easy down the stretch because of the big lead?) Regardless of what the reason is, I am happy for the win, but blowing a 19 point lead doesn't make me feel all that better about my team's chances.

When I left the house last night, you were up something like 15. When I came home and found that I'd lost by a damn buzzerbeater, I assumed that the game went into garbage time, and my starters just went on a fat run against your backups, and your starters eventually had to come back in and seal the deal. It seems this is not the case.

Either way, I'm kinda glad Tapia hit that buzzerbeater, because overtime would have ruined my already poor weekly minutes distribution.

Sounds like a solid plan...you can't be too careful. It was Saturday night, so I thought he had gone to the bingo parlor, you know, down at the YMCA.

Much more boring than either. I went to work.

If you count energy transferred by a force acting through a distance in the direction of Pittsburgh, then yes.

Sounds kinky, I'm guessing Edju was involved? Next time I'd recommend consensual "energy transfer", it saves on legal fees.

"Legal fees" is my safe word.

Anyone else really surprised to see DC Dribble start off the season 0-4? He had 6 losses for all of last season and has already picked up 4. This is baffling me. Last time I played him he just completely outclassed my team and blew me out by like 30.
