Well i find it all right. Consider a basketball player reaching his "maturity" at 28. The 30-31 y.o. ballers are at their top. Therefore Axis has 5 players who are at the top of their carreer. He doesn't need to train them, though he must have a pretty good massage doc who can keep them in shape.

However a player will lose value everyday when being 30 y.o. Meaning you'll lose money in the long run. He can bring you some wins now, but there is nothing you can do with him in 1-2 years.

I find it totally realistic: didn't the Celtics win that way, buying a bunch of 30+ well rounded dogs to win the NBA championship? Then now they look pretty much fucked up, but they'll be back in a few years. Same goes for the Mavs and their aging team.

Just keep training your boys and your time will come. You need to feel it and splash money at the right moment. That's how you win.

What are you, six years old? You sound like a spoiled little kid that just had his favourite toy taken away from him.

So, what I can gather from your space cadet like ramblings, is that the game is bad because someone found a way to beat you at it, by doing something different to you?

Maybe, just maybe (and please correct me if I'm wrong), but just maybe, in all of their infinite wisdom, the developers decided to create a game that has more than one way of being successful? I don't know why they would do something crazy like that, I can only imagine it was stupidity on their behalf that they would even consider allowing more than one strategy for success. Absolute craziness.

I'm not sure why you think training should be the only strategy for success? Do you have any legitimate reasons as to why you shouldn't be able to buy a bunch of old guys and train game shape? Or are you just sulking because you lost?

No one has ever said this game is perfectly realistic, but since you bring the realism aspect up, didn't the Celtics win a Championship with an old roster that played 100+ minutes per week? Oh, and speaking of 'realism', why should playing guys 100 minutes a week even affect their performance? Don't NBA players play 100+ minutes per week with no adverse affects on their performance the following week?

The game is not broken; you are broken (read: ignorant) for thinking there should only be one strategy for success. No one rants on you for beating them by training players and managing your minutes, so why should you rant on guys that beat you by buying older players and training game shape? Unless you think your way should be the only way of playing?

you are the nastiest person i have had the misfortune to meet in this game how about u just leave me alone and stop attacking everything i ever say i dont know what ur problem is but all u ever do is insult people & act in a horrible way & i cant understand why u r always so nasty

in 1 post u call me a spoiled little kid, a space cadet, a sulk, broken, ignorant & 6 years old

i dont like u & i dont know anybody that does so can u please just go away & leave me alone

just go away & leave me alone

No offense, but I think I used to say that when I was 6 years old.

How about we make a deal? I'll leave you alone if you stop acting like a child.

First you whined about the MVP votes. Now you're whining because you lost to someone using a different strategy to you. And now, to top it all off, you're whining because someone called you on your pathetic rant.

You are a whiner; quit your whining and I'll leave you alone.

dont worry fishy

i sensed your distress and i am here to tell you that I and the sharks still love you :)

ahem.... this somehow remind me of season 15. Matt will soon become Fishy's bffs. ahahaha

I doubt it you are a very different sort of person Datz. There there was a real conflict between two good people who were both looking after the direct interests of their teams even though it became very heated Koop and I still believed it would all work out in the end. This is quite different. Some people are just very aggressive and rude all the time.

Fishy - tanking does not agree with you, it has only been a few games so stop it. If not you need to go into a zen-like trance and just accept that everything will be horrible for the rest of the season but be ready for the relegation series.
