Great Lakes Spartans
11. The Closers (2-5) (7) - An early loss for The Closers came to San Diego Shamu before the Shamu fumbled gameshape management. The Closers have been decent, their two wins against teams they should beat, but they're going to continue to focus on training if that hasn't been made clear yet.

12. Flash Mashers (2-5) (11) - After selling a few of their best players the Flash Mashers appear to be heading towards a rebuild. They've still got a good big three, so until those guys are sold (if ever) they'll win some games and could stick around in here without needing to head to the TL to purchase some guys.

13. New York Jests (1-6) (8) - They are far too talented to be 1-6, but here we are anyway. None of their players have played in all seven games this season, so if season-long fatigue is a thing in BB the Jests are the kings of managing it. All jokes aside, once they get knocked out of a cup run I have to assume they'll start to climb up the Great 8 ladder and be a very tough relegation matchup or even sneak into the playoffs.

14. San Diego Shamu (4-3) (6) - To anyone that believes gameshape doesn't matter in BB, these guys prove to you it does. I can't blame managing since their manager hasn't logged in since 3/28/18. We're looking at a bot team in a few weeks probably, and gameshape is only going to continue to slide making their extremely talented 1-2 punch a lot weaker.

15. Blackgate Exiles (1-6) (12) - They're not a bad 1-6 team, the league is just tough. They will likely keep a hold on 8th place though, unless the Flash Mashers go all out in their fire sale. By no means are these guys a walkover, though.

16. Drunken Sconnies (0-7) (16) - The only team's position I kept the same, (AZ didn't move but they're tied for the 4th spot so) these guys will continue to train and rake in some nice TV money etc from the league before likely exiting at the end of the season. They've got a bright future, just aren't there yet.

This season has really been mind boggling for me. I can't stop losing games. And its not that I haven't made plenty of bone headed moves and deserved to lose several of the games. But I'm losing all of the coin flips and even games that on paper look like a lock I'm still getting blown out.

Case in point, by my count I had the highest match ratings in the league last night and quite a bit higher than the Terriers and not only did I lose, I got blown out so bad that he didn't even have to play his starters in the 4th quarter.

Now where was that "How On Earth Did I Lose That Game" thread?

It hasn't been my season either. I didn't plan on being a playoff team, but thought maybe more than one game would work out. I even lost my cup game to a D.IV team. I'm starting to think that training out of position is more detrimental than I anticipated.

Fairly certain that's the first time I ever scored less than 10 points in a match.

Damn.

Looks like Shamu jumped the breakwater back out to sea.
