Back drop: joining Buzzer Beater in the middle of season 24 I didn't know what to expect. I didn't know how to play the game... in a way I'm still learning. Syracuse Orange my rival. Finished my first season with a lot of free agent pick ups that propelled me to a 11-11 (playoff birth) loss in first round. Season 25 I unloaded all experienced players and picked up all new comers, under 21 players to build a team. Season 25 was good finishing 11-11 (playoff birth) first round loss, with all young players... not a bad showing.

Season 26

The Team

Point Guard - Bar Shapira 20
Shooting Guard - Donny Hardman 20
Small Forward - Theo Bullard 21
Power Forward - Amadeo Ruiz - 19

All in fun and games... I guess that's why the CPU made us rivals. You lead the series... I'm trying to even everything out.

Enjoy it you shall, until Saturday when the Chicago Wildbacks bring you down. I will give you an advantage, though, the crowd will be in your favor.... but maybe not. Hopefully your team can stop my PG. Cya there.

Hmmm, personally I think that this series might be tipped to ATR's favor, no offense, but hey this could also be an opportunity to prove all the skeptics wrong :)
