This has been quite a good few days for TWSS. I win Game 1 of the finals against petersburg on the road, Dan Billingsley gets called up by the USA NT for the semifinals against Argentina, and today I noticed that somehow I'm ranked #4 in the US (wha?!?!). Haha I'll take it.

You know what this means: Dan blows the NT game, gets injured for weeks, I lose both games to petersburg, and my impending fire sale demotes me to III after next season. I can see it now...

I was very surprised with the Game One ratings.

Where did you pull a prolific outside offense from? Did you manage to pull some pops from the creaking bones of Billingsley and Taurins? I figured Zito would be a big force for Petersburg, but not as much in Game 1.

Rating is heavily dependent on the Cup - so not surprised you were so high. Still, #4 is great.

And yes, somewhere Dan will play great, yet miss a key FT...

As for a fire sale, the salary changes this season have eliminated the end of the season fire sale that was so great for picking up players on the cheap as people needed to move salary to pay the bills. I think this week was my most profitable week all season without salaries to pay!

Congrats to TWSS for pulling out a double OT thriller against Petersburg to claim the championship! In first ot, down 5 with 20 seconds left, comes back to tie it and then win in second ot. Good luck on DI. I think Petersburg might advance as well in a rare double promotion from one dII.

Billingsly was clearly MVP in the finals.

I believe you are correct about the double promotion. Congrats to petersburg assuming this is the case.

Southside Sentinals, won the relegation series then went bot. So extra team needs to be promoted. The Team with most wins that doesnt win a championship series gets promotion.

Thanks guys. What a wacky series. In Game 1 I figured I'd lose because I was on the road and PO Normalling, so I threw in my trainee (but still like a 40-50k now) guard at SF for the first time all year, and my team played so much better I was shocked.

Both games were incredibly close, I'm sad I didn't get to watch last night's game live. I was out drinking with some old college friends and getting all the text updates so it was quite a rollercoaster of emotions with only occasional updates haha.

I'm glad petersburg will also be promoting to the NBBA with me. Should be a tough task since I'll be rebuilding, but who knows. Good luck next season everyone!

Anybody else procrastinate to the point where they never allocated their draft points? Even though I should still be able to do it tonight, it doesn't appear to be working. What a waste...

I don't invest at all... none to use up.
