What are the 5 negative implications you have come up with? -just curious-

I have identified 5 negative implications of this strategy. The rest of the league wouldn't want me to make a convincing public argument, because if this stays the same( keep starting your backups), we all win and benefit. I have no reason to want Orlando to change it nor do any other playoff teams .

edit: My bad. Talked smack to the wrong team. Just somebody actually curious. Thats on me for being too quick to run the mouth. Apologies.

No you talked smack to the right person. Tally is a part of the media. He would run his mouth if you told him! There is a snake in the grass I tell ya!

I would do no such thing. The GLB articles I put out are done with care. I keep any sensitive information omitted that could potentially be used for strategizing...with the exception of the latest article I put out on the backups playing for LVSB. But prior to the release of the article I verified with Vexxet on the situation as he had already posted in the forums his intention to play backups.

If there was a snake in the grass, I blame Colonel Mustard in the Billiard Room with the Lead Pipe.

Rod: No need to apologize for your remarks. I can understand where my quick one line question could have been construed as such. I should have done a better job on explaining there. I wasn't lookin at any information for strategies or anything. I was just trying to understand where you are coming from with your point. I just don't understand why others are throwing a fit over certain teams playing their backups.

Playing backups in a game like this only strengthens the team as a whole: especially for teams already locked into the seeds that they have. Backups get a little extra boost to their exp which for some can increase their level for the upcoming no-holds bar playoffs.

Starters will get you off and running in a race, but you still need your backups to hold their own when the first lines needs a breather. So, it only makes sense to give the backups as much playing time as they can get in games such as this where there is no negative impact to the team for the game. That way they can gain strength to support the team as a whole. JMHO

I understand your points but I'm not gonna let you draw me offsides into a debate just to get me to volunteer my analysis of the possible negative implications.

Haha. Nice try though

I understand your understanding of my understanding and also your reason for not wanting to give up said impacts.
