tried interesting strategy because I had no idea how it would work... turns out it is not worth it. I will suffer many weeks of game shape for my folly, but nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Thanks, Ardain, for being so understanding and accommodating.

I was trying to be creative - keep PD down while saving my better players for the cup... I succeeded in being an idiot instead.

Yes, only 43 min maximum hurts a little, but it was nice since I had a few extra already due to the painful OT on Saturday.
I'm glad that I had a chance to plan out the minutes as much as possible and swap in my older guys.

I did get a chance to look at the game and I did win by about 50 even with my lousy lineup...

I like how an 88k guy in proficient GS who averages 1.9 fouls a game can foul out in 21 minutes against a 49k guy in average GS.

I thought acting ability was an un-trainable hidden trait? :)

I think the verdict is already in. GS and great attributes mean nothing this season. This whole season you are witnessing 10k guys playing straight up against 80k guys and actually competing. In seasons past, that matchup would have meant a total blowout.

Look at my last cup game. The opponents best players are inept GS and he kind of hangs with me most every quarter. It used to be that Div I and Div II teams could save one or two of their better players for the cup and, barring injury, just destroy a div III or lesser team in the cup. If this is how its going to be, there is no reason to ever train a player any more beyond 20k.
