Me? Next season? I have no idea. Just don't ask me to TIE on Saturday , 'cause if you want to beat me, you're gonna have to bring it. (I love antagonizing my opponents : ))

Nice work in the Cup ... Congrats, seriously ... and congrats to Rocket Science and TNT (and Bullish) for vying for the NBBA Championship. Its gonna be interesting ...

looking over the games with you and Rocket Science, i realize i may need to change my team's name:

-- against the Science, i had an 8 point lead early in the second period, and a one point lead with a little less than 8 minutes to play. after that, i got outscored 23 - 4.

-- against you, i had a 13 point lead with less than four minutes left in the second, a nine point lead at the half, down by one with a little less than 3 minutes left, and lose by ten.

i'm thinking "Choke Meisters" or maybe "Choke Kings".

It also didn't help that you fouled a lot. Most of my team has between Sensational and Prodigious Free Throws.

Could be a "Don't-be-foul-happy-against-a-team-of-free-throw-shooters Register Guard" That's a little clunky though.

good luck to all teams tonight.

may you shoot better than the Americans did today.

and may you not be facing Tim Howard in the goal.

a tip of the hat to magiker.

i thought Pappy had the the stronger team, and he had HCA advantage as well. magiker won last night with an inspired lineup and offensive tactic.

i feel bad for Pappy -- no road he travels in BB is smooth, he is forever hitting potholes and speed bumps -- but what magiker did last night was, to me, extraordinary.

Thanks, Hassan, for the kind words. I think that our teams were fairly well matched—his is probably a fair amount better on paper—but quite frankly, I was completely outcoached. That pretty well sums up our series.

I had about 90k in salary on you total, but about an extra 220k salary for the top 5 guys. Our teams were definitely pretty close, especially since you managed game shape much better than I did, but it came down to me basically spending just enough money to keep me up here. Good luck next season, and I'm pretty sure we'll see you back here soon.

To compound that was the way that he only fell into the relegation series because of the end of game collapse against EDH. There's a movement afoot to rename Murphy's Law "Pappy's Law".

Yeah, wow. That was a ballsy move. Always thought of Patient as sort of a Hail Mary attempt. Gradzinski is one helluva player.

Patient plus the Lineup swap is gutsy. A little surprised Acker and Soto didn't get more o-boards, although Dog Rivers SG/SF counterparts basically had 3 total defensive rebounds combined.
