" ChiTown was as good as his word"

"ChiTown was as good as HER word" Fixed.

It was easy to beat KDB. He is just babysitting NT players and getting ready to retool again.


Just say no to bitchassedness!

are you kidding me?

i love being surprised, and that is a surprise.

now i have to come up with a whole new internal narrative of your entire life, including how you got to hanging with KDB.

thanks for making my day.

i was looking over the best players -- i like to group them by game ratings -- and wondered how the all-star teams would look if chosen simply by highest ratings for each position. first name for each position would be an All-Star starter

Big 8

PG Karntasis (ChiTown) / Zulli (Ron Swanson)

SG Guerrero (ChiTown) / Piradini (Ron Swanson)

SF Arnett (Ron Swanson) / Vigneron (The Hawks)

PF Trahair (The Hawks) / Basas (Senecaville)

C Madrid (ChiTown) / Kobylinski (Senecaville)

Great 8

PG Miranda (Bruins) / Lehesalu (Tucumcari)

SG Bonivento (Bruins) / Farzaliev (Muppet Honey)

SF Bridgewater (Tucumcari) / Kelsey (Bruins)

PF Harlow (Redbull) / Karabol (Eugene)

C Pintore (Eugene) / Bachniak (Chanute)

a number of judgment calls -- Lacalle (Tucumcari) could have been SF, but has recently been used as SG

and Goss (Lake Merritt), Quintanilla (Bruins), and Kilotiatis (Eugene), all wonderful players, got caught in a very deep C position in Great 8.

and the Bruins / ChiTown match should be great -- both teams have the best guards in the league and an exceptional front line.

One other data point that illustrates what many have known for some time: competition over time has gotten much stiffer.

In DII.3, these are the number of players who had game ratings above 14.0:

Season 7 one

Season 12 four

Season 17 fourteen

Season 23 twenty-one

Season 26 twenty-eight

Interesting, but phenominal players aren't all that's needed to win a game. There's loads more. We could add the best GDP predictor and the best player health manager and the best game tactic runner, etc... Now that would be fantastic would it not? hehehe. Just thoughts I ponder.
