and some days you shoot a 79 on the golf course and come to find you just beat a team whilst playing TIE.

maybe i should go buy a lotto ticket.

Yeah I don't reckon I had any injury woes last season but I seem to be making up for it. Gonna be a tough two weeks waiting for my SG to return. So far I've been lucky that teams are TIE against me. 2 major injuries will put a halt to that I would think. So long as we're fit for playoffs I'll be happy, ideally would like to be on top by that stage though.

all the luck must be going to the vipers. they picked up their 2nd 1 point win in 2 games.


Haha yeah, was pretty happy to pick up a second 1 point win in 2 games!

Gotta ride out my luck while it lasts. :p

It must've been the new logo. ;)

Vios Violationers tried harder in this game than CROCKERS.


How's that enthusiasm looking? ;)

If you're suggesting that I've been playing CT in all 3 games, I can assure you that is incorrect. After a TIE Cup match, followed by another this week and nothing but normal league matches, my enthusiasm is just fine. ;-)

No, wasn't suggesting that at all. Playing CT in the first few league matches would be rather silly.

Gotta find something to talk about in here. :p

Yeah that's fair enough. I occasionally try to stimulate some kind of banter but with little success. Was better when we had the likes of Yoda and Smeltz floating about.

Well how does everything think they're going / think everyone else is going?
I'm still trying to learn who's who in the zoon, but i think i'm doing better than expected, my 2 wins were very comfortable so far. Tho seemingly against 2 tanking teams. *shrug*
my minutes got a little screwed last week coz my cup game... sigh... i was so arrogant.. some pox div3 team, and i fielded my 4 bench players and a $2k scrub... 3 of them fouled out, so i had 3 lucky fans and i lost in DOUBLE OVER TIME! lol
serves me right.
being out of the cup sucks, i could have used the extra $50k per week for a little bit. but oh wells, this makes my minutes much easier to manage.

The best thing about the cup is the chance for an extra TIE during the week. Very beneficial when it games to enthusiasm management. Also the main reason why the cup draw shouldn't be random, but that's another discussion for another day...

Kinda hard to read how my season is going so far, lost away to CL but still had ok-ish ratings for the first game of the season, then followed that up with two consecutive one point wins (plus a cup win vs a bot, where I had a player injured after 3 mins, with no sub set). Probably a bit lucky to be 2-1 at the moment, but I'll definitely take those wins knowing how hard this season will be.

yer i think im in similar boat to you ranga's, being new to Div II its very hard to gauge how im travelling at the moment. 2-1 though, better than expected!
but very topsy turvey with my roster. one game im thinking that i need to get rid of player X, next game he shines and totally goes off. So thats been tough to analyse.
i think the funny thing is, is that everyone is still very tentative and are unsure about where they fit into the league. people are still managing their gameshape/enthusiasm in line with their cup progress and that is making it a very intruiging league to be in!
