I know we haven't done anything in the postseason, that's the point.
This league just has too much disparity from year to year. There's between 4-6 teams in each division who are respectable and good matchups, and the rest of the league is CPU teams or teams with low level players that can't currently compete at all.
No disrepect to them (that was us two years ago), but all I was saying was I'd rather have a bunch of games where I lose 34-20 than 10 games where I win 120-0. I don't think you have enough perspective to be commenting like that. We got demoted from that division and we struggled to compete year in and year out. It is not fun getting blown out 89-3 95-14 etc etc. When we got demoted there wasn't a single team in that league that was CPU or majority of players were under-levelled (if there's such a word). When i looked at the division last year 6 or 7 of the teams were garbage teams or CPU teams and should not have been in that division. So your theory of blowing out the lower half teams and competing with upper half teams would fall short. No disrespect intended to you or anyone in your position with aspirations of moving up to USA A#4 next year or in near future. We were getting our asses handed to us week in and week out but we wouldn't quit and it was friggin miserable. The upper ecehlon teams there are all level 40+ avg in all positions so I dare say you and our team would get our asses handed to us on a frequent basis but we would derive some small pleasure in beating the crap out of some of the bottom feeder teams strugglin to get by. I think it's more fun competing each week, selling out tickets and developing our stadium so we can compete with teams when we do get promoted. Think about it... you need enough money to supply your level 40 and 48 players with equipment upgrade money ofr you won't compete worth a shit. If you go in there with anything less than level 40-48 players, thinking compete, then your living in a fantasy world.
Also, most of the guys here, with very few exceptions, are really good guys willing to give you pointers on how to improve your team, without malice. I only found a few guys up there that were willing to help in any way. Oh... except of course Coach RW who has Eastern Division syndrom of the brain...
