7-3?! What do you guys think this is? Baseball?

On the other hand, we had Christchurch takin' it easy to the tune of 255-0 - it was more, but the scoreboard broke. In the process ticking off the Chenabogs (194-point victors) who probably thought they were making history.

Uluru and Dunedin survive a couple of scares.

The big Tonga-Fuego not-the-game-of-the-week matchup ended up well ... not being the game of the week.

19 sacks in one game is ridiculous. I hate to have these games as it skews everything stats-wise. Glad to have the win of course but this much of a gimme blows.

I don't think it's that much of a morale hit for our simulated players, but for our agents, that was a crushing loss for Redscape. We've got playoff hopes for this season - maybe we should, maybe we shouldn't - and that game just absolutely hurt.

We had a screwed up AI call late in the game that caused us to go for a 4th and 11 from our own 18 at the two minute warning, which lead to Uluru getting their winning field goal. Then we got the ball back and attempted a 40 yarder at the end, which we of course missed.

Extremely demoralizing.

That was a messy game - it looked like neither of us actually wanted to win it!

If its any consolation we thought we would walk it, and you look much better this season, you will turn a few heads!

Well, to be fair, Christchurch *only* scored 311 points...
And how about that 7-3 "Auburn-like" win for the Chinese?

But I'd like to congratulate Fuego on a nice game. I was more than a little nervous seeing this SIM in the first half. I'm just glad we were able to buckle down and get to business in the second half. No rest for us, as we have an ever-improving Chinese squad in Week 2.

That's tough, but I'll take it. Going for it on 4th down was odd...

I've been thinking Uluru-Redscape are natural rivals since the league was founded, but it just never materialized. Redscape has some of the worst luck ever. I remember the first season, they had like 6 playoff teams in a row early in the season to destroy their in game morale.

311? Jesus, that's just not fair. I have noticed a ton of high scores around the league, what the hell is up with that?

I for one was shocked by the 76-3 routing of Coney Island I fully expected the game to be much closer....
