Yea my casual team with -0- cares and a lot of experimental builds, no coordinators and never recruits, has gone to elite a couple times. Only leagues that are somewhat competitive in casual are the elites, and it's unfortunate when teams such as yours and mine get moved there. Not unfortunate for you and me because we obviously don't care about winning much with these particular teams, but it is unfortunate for the other teams in elite that are looking for some competition.
I guess we are easy wins for them though, so that is a plus.
