Win City in the Fall, finish 3rd in your flight in the Spring. <BR/><BR/>Keeps just 1 team to advance to the City against you. That is plenty of incentive to win the Spring and rightfully so. Makes Fall that much more important. <BR/><BR/>Obviously you should be good enough to win Fall and Spring, so you have to do everything you can to manipulate the odds of winning again in the spring as best as possible, as matches do start to come down to 3-2 wins in the City. <BR/><BR/>wouldn't you want to play a lesser quality team in the City match up?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-53229092824853523342008-10-20T22:54:00.000-05:002008-10-20T22:54:00.000-05:00Just the facts sir.Just the facts sir.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-51272142628357873312008-10-20T22:20:00.000-05:002008-10-20T22:20:00.000-05:00You can't stop yourself from opening your mouth ca...You can't stop yourself from opening your mouth can you Corey?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-63714040067382323212008-10-20T21:16:00.000-05:002008-10-20T21:16:00.000-05:00My team made the playoffs last spring and this tea...My team made the playoffs last spring and this team is better than that one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-69909476623261239282008-10-20T20:24:00.000-05:002008-10-20T20:24:00.000-05:00Dont agree that QT spot is no incentive but respec...Dont agree that QT spot is no incentive but respect your opinionAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-59084195816988385912008-10-20T17:41:00.000-05:002008-10-20T17:41:00.000-05:00for a lot of teams, like Corey's -they will not ma...for a lot of teams, like Corey's -they will not make the playoffs in the spring unless they win the fall, so they have to win the fall.

Once you win the fall you would be foolish to do nothing else but to finish 3rd in the spring. <BR/><BR/>Why would you want to have better competition in the dance? <BR/><BR/>Knock one out without even playing against them.

The Fall is a great time to get folks prepped for the Spring.<BR/><BR/>I've always wondered if the Fall scores really factor into the Year-end ratings or not; because from a system perspective, the Fall is the 2009 season and not 2008 so it would require doing a multi-year equation. I'm sure it is just cumulative but it is interesting that we are already classified as 2009.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-8019778034451504992008-10-18T11:42:00.000-05:002008-10-18T11:42:00.000-05:00If you scout a good player or have one on your tea...If you scout a good player or have one on your team already it's pointless to play them in the fall and then lose them for the spring when it counts,<BR/>Unless you use the fall for tanking So get busy Noaman, Forresst, Ect..<BR/>You better start tanking if you want to be 4.0 next year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6372029287243637381.post-90531769734454802762008-10-18T11:17:00.000-05:002008-10-18T11:17:00.000-05:00It is good to have a link from fall to spring.
