it's a joke.

we all know what STFU means, so well, my last round picks must have gone to that university (or to an institution of similar prestige)


... maybe Springfield Heights Institute of Technology?

IC, since I actually never use this abreviation my penny was not falling...
Now that you mention it, I get what you mean.

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

I agree with you in the case of the upper divisions. In the lower divisions, where a lot of the teams are bots, it might be a little different.

One draft, I think we had four or five humans by the end of the season. I had the best overall record and drafted last. I spent a nice sum on scouting, but was had no choice as to my last pick. I just got whomever most of the bots didn't want. If there was a slightly larger pool, my scouting might have actually yielded a better player that the bots had missed.

Still, you drafted two players worth the scouting. With a lot of bots those players will probably be slightly better than in a complete human league.

Having garbage in the last pick is just the price you pay for being a solid team in the league while the extra income from playoffs, extra fanclub members and possible promotion is the gain.

My opinion: the draft system is fine as it is.
