My Utopia merch is eerily similar. Off by like 50 bucks for every week. Winning the 3pt shootout gave me a season high for merch, but it's still only like a 300 buck raise.

I'd guess that All-Star game/shootout doesn't have an effect on merch.

Just realized Eugene Register Guard and 10inch Vertical play each tonight AND on Saturday. Unfortunately for 10inch, he's away for both.

Yeah, it sucks. And while I'm whining, I would like to add that three road games in the same week sucks a big one too.


Well, you do get me at home in a TV game on Tuesday....that doesn't suck :-)

that's a first: in the Delta 9 Cup game, one of the Lucky Fans playing for the Buckeyes got hurt.

i think that injury was the difference in the game.

The rare Triple Lucky Fan plan of attack! It's a bold strategy.

In other news, none of the NBBA Cup games are exciting, including the two NBBA matchups. Boo.

The only good draw in the entire NBBA. You've gotta be salivating at this, you have a good shot at not drawing an NBBA team next round either.

I hadn't noticed. Cool ...

I don't get the part about next round thought - I thought it was random

Why would I have any different chance in drawing an NBBA team next week ?

In the next round there will be 8 teams left. You would be one of these 8 teams. That leaves 7 other teams to be chosen at random to be your opponent. Out of those 7 teams, only 3 NBBA teams will be left, which leaves 4 non NBBA teams. Giving you 57.14% of not drawing a NBBA team.

i was getting all ready to counter with some analysis that it was unlikely that you or TnT would be winning the Cup this year, because you would have to focus at some imminent point on the league, HCA, and preparing for the playoffs . . .

and then i checked the standings. damn.

both of you guys are really kinda sitting pretty -- you with a two-game lead and a huge PD, TnT with a three-game lead, with seven to go. so both have, barring some Pacer locker room meltdown or one of you starts spouting racist nonsense and have to sell your team, the great likelihood of having HCA until the championship round.

i am guessing that the Cup and League champion will come from either BM, Beware of Dogs, or Delta. but, as one who is, along with the Traptors, Chargers, IYF, and Chargers, plotting my chances in the the Cup and possibly playoffs (including even getting there), right now, i think the best chance of pulling an upset win is in the Cup.

Rocket Science' experiment of a six-man roster of first-rate players two games a week is so unusual i don't know how to evaluate his chances. if TnT stumbled badly and ended up with only 17 wins, rocket_science would still have to basically run the table to get HCA. with money on the line, it will be interesting to see all this play out.
