Hmm, I'm probably in the minority, but I was never impressed with Cape Town. Yes they kicked our ass twice, but the seemed pretty sloppy. Reminded me of the Shaq, Kobe, Malone, Peyton Lakers, yes they were loaded with talent and looked GREAT on paper, but didn't have the TEAM it took to win it all. That team seemed to just be a bunch of team owners that brought their players together and figured they'd win it all on talent alone, with out game planning and without putting in the time needed to win.
They would lose games they had no business losing because of lack of preparation. When there was a team that they thought might give them a problem the would do better, hence our ass-kickings lol, but did'nt seem to ever put it together.
The teams with a few GM's that bust their butts are the ones that impress me the most. Like TLGoT for example, 1 onwner and 1 GM and kicking butt!! THAT is impressive in my opinion.

This makes me laugh....The only reason I have loads of gm's...is because if/when we win a championship I want all my agents to get a GM trophy....The only GM's that have powers are MikeJ-Finance....and myself.....So the theory at looking at GM's is invalid.

That helps make my point Vegas, you guys only have 3 GM's and I imagine their roles are pretty clear, yet overlap. I wasn't really talking about GM's that are listed just to be listed. You have a small number of GM's that have assembled and run your team. Cape Town has scores of owners that came together. Seemed like a "too many chiefs, not enough indians" type of situation.
I'm talking about the CTWS team, not any team or teams in APL, or anywhere for that matter. Cape Town got brought and a lot of players said they wanted to got there, which surprised me. I wanted to kick their butt, which we did in the end, but I would have never wanted to join them.

Totally agree on bad reps of CTWS. I have met an agent along the recruiting process, and he happened to be one of the ex-CTWS member. He's got a lot to say about how terrible that team was, even when I have very little idea about that team.
I can't remember who said it during our conversation:
"CTWS is like USAORG in Lion. Only worse."
I guess this is one of the sad realities in GLB.

My Bad Majech....it is pretty clear that the LOL's and CTWS have a lot of help building their teams...But LOL is dominant and won't be beat in the APL...Along with that they will never get the respect in all of GLB...So to each their own
