I've had success with a 1-3-1 against outside oriented teams, as long as their rebounding isn't too strong. The extremely high OD ratings normally shuts them down for me.

Worked like a charm against me in league play. (For our 3 PL matchups, however, I've bent you over and had my way with you.) Of note, though: my rebounding sucks the proverbial donkey scrotum.

Sucks you didn't pull this out, because your game was one of the only two this week worth watching.
So the only reason it sucked was because it was worth watching? What about a sense of kinship for a fellow DII.4-ite?

I kinda didn't want you to do any better than me, I suppose. And you had a better draw than I did. You know, now that you mention it, I'm glad you lost. Nyah.

And how could you not POCT? It feels like a normal and tastes like Christmas!
My enthusiasm was down to 8 after Normalling TF, and plus I never really liked the taste of sugarplums.

Not sugarplums, more like egg nog and Fireball whiskey. And I can assure you that had I had your draw, I would've POCTed, shattered enthusiasm or no.

I appreciate your conversation and points about 1-3-1...I was toying with running it today, but you all convinced me it would be a bad idea. Thanks!

I believe I've only used 1-3-1 against you twice. In league play both of our rebounding ratings were average, but in the the PL game your rebounding was respectable to my mediocre. I might be oversimplifying it, but in my narrow-minded head, I think rebounding is the key to a successful 1-3-1.

I agree, though I'd add ID to the discussion as well. As for my ratings, when I played you in the league game, I started a kid at C with only respectable RB. Not so in the PL games.

Major points to take away from this post:
1. don't play 1-3-1 unless you have good rebounding
2. my rebounding sucks something worse than donkey scrotums
3. don't bend over around darky

My rebounding has marginally improved by replacing Strauss with West, but hardly enough to write Mom about.

That looks like a new trainee to me...

I don't even want to hear from you. Used your thugs to injure my Ringer and thus deny me my rightfully stolen win!

Edit - I do know how to speak English

And a damn good one at that (based on salary for that age). Seems like a probably steal at 2 million.

I wouldn't mind being in your conference... In fact, I would switch if I could. oh well, at least if i manage to get in the relegation matches, i wont have to play my own conference.

(man, why does my conference have to be so tough)
