WW got us confused I guess when saying GG(in universe you would be hung in the state of Oklahoma for confusing the Outlaws for the Gamblers) and I said GG to Legend to hopefully be funny


Yea I was convinced since last night I was playing CJ. So convinced that even the info right in front of my face didn’t erase my delusion.

I'm behind on good games so good games Shreveport, New York and Tampa. Shreveport is off to a rough start as they were expected to be contenders in the South, while New York is persevering through a multi year rebuild thanks to Nosedive Neil, the previous Stars owner. Tampa has also struggled to start the year but if the Bandits can figure out how to score double digit points, they'll string some wins together. My Generals scored 16 against them, the most they've given up this season. They have only given up 45 points in 4 games, yet they are 0-4.

Good luck the rest of the season to all 3 of you.

Smirt,

You can get mad if you want but it's not my intend to insult you here.

I know you want to be super aggressive by throwing the ball a ton and going for it on 4th down alot but check your rules.

Do you really want to go for it on:

* 4th & 10 from your own 25
* 4th & 8 from your own 15
* 4th & 20 from your own 15
* 4th & 5 from your own 41
* 4th & 6 from your own 39

My average starting field position was my own 47 yard line on 18 possessions including 7 possessions starting in your territory.

I literally scored 19 points on 5 of those possessions inside your territory and gained a total of 55 yards on those 5 possessions which amounts to an average of 11 yards for 3, 3, 3, 3, 7.

Take that away and the score is 20-16 Sabercats instead of 37-20 Gamblers.

I get the super aggressive, pass happy style but if you just eliminated those low percentage 4th down tries deep in your own territory then you become very difficult to beat.

If you are OK with it then I apologize up front right now but a simple adjustment to your 4th down rule elimamtes most of it.

Your answer:

It was week 4 and I didn't care. The hope was the game would break right and I'd absolutely blow you out of the f***ing water.

Unfortunately, for me, that didn't happen.

Cool, that's the impression I got that you don't care.
