Well to your point, unless you're sure you are going to compete for the championship, why scratch and claw for 2nd or 3rd place? All you have to do is win that relegation battle and you're still in.

This is only annoying because us here in Div II are expecting a walkover, we expect the opponent to treat it as a walkover and we'll collect both our 50k and enthusiasm boost and proceed to the next round of the cup. So really, we *do* care about that 50k, which may turn into 100k (as should be the case for the team that beat Deronimo as they get a Div V team next round), or 200k, etc. I've done it myself a bunch of seasons ago as a Div III team against an NBBA team and won. The congrats and adulation from the rest of my league was worth it alone, aside from the financial gain.

Edit: That same season I CTed our very own NY Wahoos a few rounds later. Sorry man, I was on a roll. No hard feelings :)

The divisions are also getting a lot deeper then when we were in Div III and IV. Used to be having a couple $20k players meant you were unstoppable down there.

Yeah, the money is important, and the pride is important as well. I nearly quit last season because of losing a game i felt i should win in the cup even though i was CTed. It just sucks because the CT is a trump card over everything else. At least it happens to everyone at one point or another.

Yeah, that really suprised me. No offense to Albany who earned the W, but still a surprise upset.

Also a surprise with the Freaks over NY Wahoos.

With the game and matchup ratings... I should have easily had that game at home.
Second time this season someone stole a W on the road when they shouldn't have........

How was that a surprise? Wahoos sold its PG and C earlier this season, the PF was in inept game shape, and the other two big guns were at average... and one didn't play.
