They have certainly tried to make tweaks to reward having more depth outside of the starting five for most teams, which was probably needed.

No, it does not. They sure did a number on my training plans and weekly minutes in my cup game. I was just curious about what type of in game injury causes a 1 week stomach bug. I am left imagining some player dunking a burrito down Horton's spacious gullet.

Crazy how the entire Big 8, except for one team, has a positive point differential.

Yeah and that team is a bot

It happens sometimes. Probably won't last. There are a couple teams there that can do some damage.

The season really doesn't start until the 2nd time through. At that point, we've all played each other and most are out of the cup. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Given that my objective was to stay up without drama, I sure am happy that there is a 4 game cushion between my team and fifth place

Btw on the PD issue. Big 8 is obviously stronger in the middle-low slots, and I'm glad I'm not in that fight, but half of us have not yet gotten to eat against the bot team.

Yes, the bots are certainly a factor in it. I wish everyone good & bountiful feasts on the bots!

61 points

Never thought I'd see the day one of my guys would be the leading scorer

Dark days indeed

Sorry for the CT. Once I decided to punt the rest of the season, this became effectively my last match in which I was in any sense trying to win. And I knew it was gonna be tough to win even with a CT. Either way I figured you'd be happy to know there wasn't going to be a real challenge for the #2 seed ...

Absent some injuries, it's pretty obvious where this is headed. 2 teams are head and shoulders above the rest of us. We're all playing for 3rd place. And I'd never apologize when I lost the game.

That’s exactly why I decided to punt the rest of the season. Any team other than those 2 should either load up or sell off. I chose to be a seller.

As for apologizing, I think regular season CT’s are in bad taste even when you lose—like it can be unclear what one was trying to accomplish with this weird move. In this case, it was one last non-bot win. Also the CT effectively communicates to Hoosiers that they are gonna have the #2 seed (or better) in our conf.

(I also effectively lost this game because I listed three good players to sell yesterday at lunchtime instead of after the game. Got two more short sales and then it’s all planning for next season )

No biggie. CTs are part of the game. It’s good to get tested.
