I just automatically gave up on the cup. With my personal situation the money and Enth are not worth sacrificing games when margins are quite small, it may be a different story for someone with a better team. Red is pounding the blue side for the first time in recent memory though. I'm honestly surprised that my game against Vecx was not a blowout despite not being able to exploit his PG due to training positions. I think Bergkamp has a good chance of getting out of the blue side, but I'll probably take whoever has HCA between him and Vecx.

Also, that I'm able to survive with the same team as last season and J Dogs is also doing ok means the difference between D2 and D1 is smaller than ever.

I agree that Bergkamp can't afford to drop another league game if he wants any chance of home advantage, but I suspect he might think he has the best team left in the Cup and he probably isn't as sure about being the best in the league. Certainly I'm expecting him to completely throw the game against J Dogs.

Red is pounding the blue side for the first time in recent memory though.

The red side doing better in the relegation playoffs probably had a little to do with that, as well as us getting probably the two best promoted teams.

I think Bergkamp has a good chance of getting out of the blue side, but I'll probably take whoever has HCA between him and Vecx.

I agree with both comments.

Also, that I'm able to aurvive with the same team as last season and J Dog is also doing ok means the difference betwewn D2 and D1 is smaller than ever.

Agree again but with the slight caveat that not all the D2s are equal.

Today could be the first time ever that all Reds beat Blues in away games.

Unlikely since Vecx is playing at home and is out of the cup and my guys are trying hard to lose.

lol my game was beyond ridiculous. I have a 55% FT shooter going 1-4 in the last 35 seconds of 1OT, 0-2 in the 2OT and fouling on the other end with 0:00 remaining in the 1OT. Incidentally he went 0-8 (and 1-6 on 3 fouls) with 89.1 PP100. And let's just ignore the 28 ORs.

Looking at ratings I wouldn't say that. I think it was 50/50 and you deserved your win. Sometimes weird stuff happen in this game. Feeney is a weaker version of Marichal but he's still very good offensively, so he has no business going for 0 points and 1-6 on critical FTs, but I didn't help myself with wrong GDP, no scouting (wouldn't have played battazza and my rebounding would be better) and no National Appeal PR. Any of these would have been enough to win it, so I have mostly myself to blame.

No criticism meant when I say this: if ratings decided games I'd be 3-10. And 0-7 against great 8 teams.

Not sure what you're on about: you'd be 4-3 against red, which is exactly how you did. The only wins you have with worse ratings are Wombats and Tallfellas and in both cases the difference was minimal. Surely you are not including the several games where you had garbage time in your calculations.

Rating do usually predict the winner very reliably when considered together with the tactics used. Within a margin of error (and both games mentioned above had less than 5 bbstats between you and your opponent). Also the same ratings from a balanced team vs very unbalanced teams will yield different results as the ratings are simply a weighted average of the contributions of the single players.

In any case I was referring to rebounding in this case which is pretty unequivocal (3 full levels difference) and do explain how I got 29/57 defensive rebounds and he got 37/44.
