No it doesn't. To answer that, I can only go back to my original post:

Sometimes, the better team loses.

If the better team always won, no one would care about the SIMS, and the lesser teams would soon lose interest.

Why do you think you are the better team? Simply because your "levels" are higher than ours? Look at our DT, Arceneaux. He is level 12 and totally dominated your level 16s on the offensive line. He had 8 TFL. That was not a fluke as he has been dominating this entire season. It has more to do with just "numbers". It is also how a player is built and the game plan.

But if it makes you feel better to say your team is "better", then go ahead and tell yourself that. Watch out for the Wildcats this week. You guys are the better team, but any given Sunday/Saturday...

Arceneaux is very well built (awesome game BTW Arceneaux). But player's builds are what the scouting reports are based on. The scouting reports are what indicate that The Evil Monkeys are the better team.

But that comment doesn't take into account gameplan. I think from a level perspective, your guys are probably a tad better esp w/depth. Congrats??

However, it's close enough that with the right gameplan, you can lose and lose fairly convincingly. We cruised in the 1st half moreso than the 2nd half and I think you had one TO in the 1st half that we just went 3 and out on. The better team yesterday won the game..

I agree that the better team doesn't always win. I mean, look at the Super Bowl this past year. There's no way the Giants are better than the Patriots. On that day they were and that is what happened in our game versus the Monkeys (from a scouting report stand point). It was a HUGE win for our team and I am OVER joyed with it...even today I have a half ass grin due to the win but at the end of the day, it was another win. I am hoping that we meet again in the playoffs at some point.

Go Bayou Bengals!

On a side note, we need to create an all league team at the end of the season for fun. Just our league and it should be based on stats alone (to avoid any bias). We can have a 1st team and a 2nd team. Would be pretty cool.

Absolutely. And we should prohibit votes for your own players or players from your team. Get out and see the league.

Great idea on the voting on players except your own.

Nice work Bears fan. Just like the Bolts to have a 1st team AA TE.
