Well, the proof will be at the end of the season. There are a few other good teams in Alpha and there are always teams that step up late. Learning how to win with what you have in Bort’s ever-changing sim is 90% of it. Just because you go 15-1 is no guarantee for success in any conference. My Crushers have battled through Oceania since season one and in that time I have learned a ton.
1- The West Scrotum Infectors are good, really good. It's not gimmick players; their staff is top notch and masters of manipulating the sim.
2- Zeta always beats their chest and lets us know they are better, and they have good reason to do so. Zeta is the tougher division but alpha has found a way to win there share of tittles thanks in part to WSI. With WSI gone will or can someone step up in Alpha this season? If not I am sure Zeta will let us know about it.
3- Pre season predictions mean squat. Most teams, mine included never plan a preseason game. I don't know about the rest of you guys but the Crusher's never claim to have any super star players or some build master guru. We win games with good game planning. We plan well and we win (usually big), we slip up and miss something and any team can beat us. We make no excuses. Carpy, Smoke and I know the Sim and we use it to our advantage when we can. We will not us Bort as an excuse.
4- O-Pro has some great owners and agents on both sides. The shit talkers, Grammar Nazis, jerks, meat heads and apologists are what make this forum a good one.
Good luck to all in season 10
Good post.....I am certainly not calling out any team in OPL, my team has enough problems.
I disagree with #3 though....all the alpha guys are using this argument, but I dont think anyone in Zeta is game planning either. If you were to scout the Wasps I bet you would find our gameplans to be eerily similar to whatever our last game of S9 was....because we are on cruise control like everyone else.
