I did TIE but lucked out, pressing my luck as I had some near bot losses last season.

It'll be less of a worry a future seasons as all our teams will be noticeably stronger as time goes on, but for now the bots are a force to be reckoned with.

I'm not going to fret over it...makes my training schedule a lot easier. Plus I'll take over the flag chase lead Not that it matters for anything hehe.

I mean, maybe I'm crazy. But, teams in the best league in a country should not have a majority of its teams knocked out of the cup by a bot in the first round.

It just seems like bots are too strong.

It's the best league in the country, but that doesn't mean we're the best managers in the country. I don't mean to knock anyone with this - I, for example, signed up at the beginning of season 2 and got placed in a II division. People signing up a few weeks later were in III and IV. They haven't even had a chance to make to the top yet.

right. but if you let phil jackson manage my local rec league team and you let me manage the spurs, the spurs would still win.

That's not a fair comparison because people have been playing basketball in the US for a very long time. It's developed here. Of course the best teams are going to be in the top league.

BB is a different story. There have only been 2+ seasons. Imagine if some new sport became popular overnight in the USA and people were split up into various teams that were arbitrarily put into leagues with a promotion/relegation scheme. For the first few seasons, I don't think that the league a team is in would say much about how good the team is. Eventually, the best teams will rise to the top, the next tier of teams would be in the second division, etc. But it takes time.

And combining time with your original point, if Phil Jackson was managing a rec team and you were managing the Spurs AND there was some sort of promotion/relegation scheme between the two leagues, there's a possibility that he'd eventually move ahead of you, right?
