I can agree with that viewpoint. Winning anything after your inaugural season in a league outside of a Pro, especially in an expansion league, means less because other teams had to get promoted for you to shine. Everything after season four done by a team in A8 meant less because Athens Ferrymen and Swedish Stackers had to leave before any A8 team could win anything and the more seasons go bye that you were in A8 the less a promotion meant. They're both in AAA now while the rest of us are trying to move up with Athens having a shot to go to EE Pro after this season.
If the Wolverines can do something big here in our first season in AA or even get promoted to AAA ahead of teams that got promoted faster it'd be a huge accomplishment but always chasing Athens. Damn Iggy! Top two team in AA4 at this point is more than I think we expected on our side and there was planning for this season build wise and scouting since before we even played a game here. Pythons we knew were the team to beat they've had an AAA caliber team since last season. Wolverines we were just hoping for the playoffs and I know beating Cape Town was huge obviously since a few of our players enjoyed that one.
I'm one of probably the minority who doesn't mind the Cubicles forum talk and don't take this stuff all personal but then again I haven't visited these forums in a few weeks either! Congrats to all playoff bound teams!
its a good thing you dont come here much. an eloquent poster who is logical, sees the other sides point of view, and doesnt take insults personally... basically, my kryptonite
and screw iggy!@ he ruined it for the rest of us. my only purpose in this game has been to catch up to the ferrymen and beat them. then i can retire.
