Seriously, I'm stunned that we've reached a point where a team of your quality is sitting in the #8 seed. Unbelievable.

A team with an 11-11 record relegated from the Great 8 last season. I also believe it was the team who had the league's highest team salary, though I don't have any way to check.

Knew the first part, didn't know the second part. It really is crazy in here. I think the Great 8 is easily weaker this season than it was last season, yet the lack of a doormat in the Big 8 means at least one other good team is going down.

Well that stunk...... (36158152) I understand that sometimes the actual result doesn't match the ratings but I don't get how I was down that much by the end of the third. Between losses like last night, and the seemingly randomness of injuries it seems you need a good amount of luck to win a championship.

That's a real head-scratcher. With the ratings and HCA, I don't see how you lost that game. Could it be something that's not measured by the ratings, like experience?

The ratings are screwed badly by the inclusion of this dong whisperer (10588284) playing a full quarter at SG, and the fact that my team is brimming with awesome.

That, and I just upgraded most of the team to Windows XP.

Machines got that X Factor yo.

He always outplays his ratings. It's weird, but he does it often enough that I'm not surprised when it happens.

Yeah, from the ratings and PP100, I'm not sure how you didn't win by more either. Your squad's gotten a lot better from last season.
