*Tim Harper meets with reporters in Kalamazoo the night before their much anticipated playoff game. The reporters look ready to start grilling Tim and thus it begins*

Reporter #1: Tim, how do you think you guys will perform tomorrow and do you expect to be on top when the dust settles?

Tim Harper: I don't honestly know how our team will perform tomorrow, but I will try my best to put this team in the position it needs to have a shot at winning. I would like to think that we have what it takes to win tomorrow, but sometimes the better team doesn't always win. The team that plays the best that day continues on at a shot at the championship. Harsh way to look at things, but that is the reality of the playoffs. If the Coyotes win tomorrow, I will congratulate them and look to next season. I would hate for our ride to end so early, but shit happens.

Reporter #2: I know you guys have been preparing for the game quite a bit, what are some things your looking to stop or do against the Coyotes tomorrow?

Tim Harper: Honestly, we are looking to stop them offensively. No one has had any success doing that lately and it is about time someone put a strangle hold on them. Thing is with them, they can beat you on the ground or beat you in the air. If you try to stack eight in the box against them, they will just beat you over top all game. If you try to stop their deep passing game, they will just run all over you. Your damned either way, so we are just trying to decide which poison we think we have a better chance of swallowing and surviving with.

Offensively we are looking to keep a balanced attack like we have the last five weeks and not allow them to stack up their defense against one or the other. We want them to be on their toes at all times and moving the ball around in no specific predetermined game plan allows us to do that. We are just going to adapt to what is going on and see where that takes us.

Reporter #3: One last question before you head off for last minute preparations, are you confident or nervous heading into tomorrow?

Tim Harper: I am confident in our team to win, but nervous for the outcome tomorrow. I hate to disappoint my players with a loss tomorrow and I know I am not ready to take back seat to anyone right now. With all the time we have put in this season and the effort those guys have made to mold themselves into the system I have sold them on, going home just isn't an option for us. I just know swallowing a loss isn't something I want to deal with, my legacy depends on winning this championship.

Hehe, don't look ahead of your first game match man...

But if you win, we will be seeing you in Dark Lotus (wherever the !@$% that is). What a great matchup that would be.

don't forget the adding of players off of your other team. that might have helped.

is it technically collusion if you are colluding with yourself?

i bet it is.

i bet it is collusion.

Reporter #4: How does it feel to overtake Bill Belichik as the least ethical coach in the game? Does the looming threat of punishment bother you?

I didn't know adding two starters to the team really put us over the top!

It couldn't of been the tactics that shut down their running game, could it? I mean, besides my FS, the defense was exactly the same from the regular season. No wait, good tactics and player builds couldn't be the reason. That makes no sense!

3 Super Bowl rings would be nice too, I think that is how many he has. Can't remember, he has been destroying everyone in the NFL the last 6-7 years.

Reporter 5: But, Tim, didn't they just get routed by the Giants while going for their fourth SB this decade? Wouldn't you like your legacy to extend upon that?

(Guys, enough with the hate. It's getting really flamboyant... And by that I mean gay.)

Reporter 6: How have you been motivating your players for the upcoming matchup against the Dark Lotus Juggernauts? With some saying that these two teams are the best, if not close, teams in the East, do you think that the winner of this game will be representing the Conference in the USA Pro Bowl?

Terrible. This guy is a moderator and blind. What a combo. Ever notice how he's always boasting himself too? I'm not referring to press releases either.

Well, when you read enough posts from someone, you realize what they're trying to push.

It is a press release man, they are here for fun. If you want to belittle me, take it to another thread. I am getting tired of all the same remarks about my "cheating". First off trading for about five players from another team I own isn't illegal. So once it is illegal, charges may be brought forward. My team was neither "ripped" apart either. They played with a team that couldn't field a whole starting lineup all year, yet still made the playoffs. It is a farm team for a reason, but I do believe people were crying because it was a Canadian Pro league. Either way, I didn't break any rules so no point in beating a dead horse man.
