So it looks like we now officially have two teams punting... both on the Big 8 side. Maybe their New Year's resolution was not to lose games without making a lot of money?

No such strategists on the Great 8 side and it's looking more and more like we might have an auto-demotee who paid full to near-full team salaries during his team's slide. Will be much more interesting than in seasons past to see how the bottom end of the standings end up if no one goes for it.

Was CT'd in the cup, glad I "played it safe" and added some starters to get a few minutes. Form update is going to destroy me for the second week in a row, so I better get a few favorable match-ups for the next few weeks in the cup! Of course, this means I will play NBA teams on the road until bounced... grrrr....

Another fact: Great 8 is 31-9 overall and 23-1 at home so far in interleague.

10 Inch Vert beat a great Delta 9 team by 16 tonight and literally lost PD to everyone else in the Great 8. Ridiculous.

Yet another fact: Teams in the Great 8 have played 12 games so far. Equal to the amount of games Big 8 teams have played to this point. Ridirkulous.

Am I missing something? I have tried 8 different calculators, and even used the phone a friend option, and 12/16 always seems to come up to 75%.

He must be using the same kind of math that helped him determine that it was a good idea to carry 30 players on his roster.

lol! the sentence i was writing cut off and never got converted by the IME to text. oh well. it's almost surely funnier than whatever i was attempting to write anyway. (as an aside, 87.5% is obviously for the Great 8 % alone). Was going for a convoluted 2nd fun fact IIRC.

On 2nd thought i blame the patriarchy.

Whoa, check your privilege. Stop roster-shaming me. Of all American teams, DIII & higher, that have carried 20+ players long-term, in BB history... I'm arguably among the top 5 most successful that fit that criteria. all-time. (top 10 at worst.)

And if you haven't noticed: I've just set a new DII record for most wins before the all-star game by a team with at least 10 players 40+ & 2 or more in their 50s. Shattering the previous record of 0.

You should probably change your name from "Dunkface" to "Eggface" because you're now the one with egg on your face! burn.
