I can't believe my team pulled that game out of their backsides in the 4th quarter against CT from UNC!

Huge win, especially that I'm still without Bowers!

Yeah, this season has been all about building that bank account back up for the Streets, which was stagnated by a shorter than ideal Cup run.

The good news is I've won a couple road games so my gate hasn't taken a major hit, I also lowered my bleacher prices early on, which helped.

Great ranking, Frosty. Appreciate the kind words!

Love the Rankings.... I'm actually an NCAA D2 Men's basketball coach so i get busy for a couple weeks and don't get to get on and Post and all that. So its GREAT to see someone else throw rankings in. I did log in and plan for the game against baker and it showed we played well. My team lacks depth and that's the biggest fear. I think you have it ranked PERFECT!!! Frosty and Flammingo beat me very easily. the loss to NYC my best player got hurt 7 mins into the game and my lack of depth showed there. With the team healthy right now (if they can stay that way)... I think we can get the wins needed in the Big 8 to still be the top seed in the Big 8 going into the playoffs. Once in the playoffs we all know ANYTHING can happen. Personally i believe that it will be a great battle between Frosty & Flammingo and then a battle in the finals!!!

I will post my top 8 rankings after tonights game!

Well thank you. But i've noticed that BB respects when you log in and make some adjustments... I mean i played it as Normal instead of take it easy. And i made 2 line up changes, plus changed my offense tactic. Where in some of my games before our game... I logged in just to check my money or if a player sold and set up default line ups and take it easy effort. Our game was critical for seeding and all as the season progresses.

Great 8 is a clusterfuck of excellence. I hope whoever wins the league comes out of this conference. Can you imagine if the winner of the league coming out of the Big 8 and the Great 8 getting some league II demotees. Lawwwwwd...it would be brutal next season.

This is the most exciting race top 4 race I've had in BB. Any of the current top 6 teams in Great 8 can win the league. It's going to be crazy coming down the home stretch. HCA will be real important in the playoffs...hopefully I can sneak in. 0_0

Not sure how to handicap it, and as a result I am unsure how to play it financially. I like my squad but I'm not sure it runs the gauntlet. The whole thing is fascinating.

With just a few games remaining it is a tight race in the Great 8 that's for sure. There seems to be a sense that the Great 8 is head and shoulder ahead/better than the Big 8 but the jury is still out on that. The general vibe is that the top 3 teams in the Big 8 would be just fine if playing in the Great 8. But Heading into the last few games and that final playoff push... What teams are trending upward??? and what teams are trending down??? Who's the scariest team to win the entire league and promote? Who's the most overRated team?!?!?! and lastly who is no one talking about anymore that we should be??? The III.7 Daily news has its views and answers to these questions but we'd like to hear your thoughts before posting...

oh man, this race is really tight, idk what is going to happen going down the stretch. some outstanding team is going to be in a relegation series in the great 8, and the grand ma mas seem to be the inevitable recipients of playing a relegation series against one of the 6 really good teams over here. that said, just for the great 8:

trending upward: west side - winners of 8 of their last 9, team is getting into good game shape and they're coming off an impressive road win against top ranked frosty

trending downward: frosty - back to back losses against lambda and west side respectively, they still have philly, nyc and flamengo on their schedule. anything but a cake-walk. i really needed to beat west side...

scariest team: has to be flamengo. i know lambda can probably lay appropriate claim here, but flamengo's individual salaries and ratings are downright intimidating.

overrated team: frosty - the dream ride seems to be coming to an abrupt end. i never expected to do as well as i have this season anyway. whatever the result, i'm pretty satisfied. i'll be damned if i go down without a fight though, i'm coming for the cup!

underrated team: nyc - scary goddam roster and has the ratings to bang with any of the big boys. it's not a guarantee they make the playoffs, but if they get there, they can make some noise.

I love the honest assessment over there frosty. I have to say you were rolling, i dont know what happen but i see you've dropped a few games in a row now. amazing part after today in the Great 8 there are now 5 teams sitting with 5 losses and 1 team in the 6th spot with 7 losses! With only 3 games left this is a roller coaster. there is 1 HUGE X-factor that comes into play playoff home court advantage!!! the Great 8 is not only a battle to get in but who's going to host games as that extra boost of home court could be the deciding factor.

Then there's more drama!!! BucsBlue sits as a 5 loss team as well (Winners of their last 5 YES 5 games!!! Those include wins against both of the other top teams in the Big 8.) IF and its a HUGE IF but IF BucsBlue gets to the final... If any of the top teams lose BucsBlue would get finals Home Court Advantage. ( BucsBlue last 3 games are against the 3 worst teams in the Big 8) So assuming Bucs wins all 3.... In the overall league this is ANYBODYS race and III.7 Daily news is just excited for Saturdays & Tuesdays down the Stretch!
