Good Game to the Red Army, and I'm glad we won, but now I'm faced with a dilemma I had hoped I wouldn't be in. Getting a 3rd home game is nice, but the real question is... do I gameplan to win against Long Island, who are obviously a great squad (they handed Prague their ONLY losses) who deserve a game against an All-Star team playing to win... or do I take my 3 home game playoff money, perform the offense/defense swap and try to make it this deep into the POs next season when my team is better prepared to move up?

I really don't know what to do here, but once again, whatever I do decide to do, nothing takes away the fact that Long Island is a great team, along with The Red Army and Prague.

hmmm. sounds like a dilly of a pickle. I suggest you go the route of integrity and take your loss like a man, going down swinging.

Not a shot, but advocating throwing a conference championship game just so you can dominate bigger next season is not exactly the pinnacle of sportsmanship.

Man up, play it straight and may the best team win. You certainly were the best team earlier in the season, so if you still are, go have fun in AA. If not, tip your cap to the Legion and take solace in your Season 5 domination.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to playing the Legion and most likely the All-Stars will come out swinging, I think the Conference Championship is a fitting spot for a rematch with Long Island. You guys have really got a lot of momentum going, and I'd like to see if I can stop it. I mean, hell, the Legion's last loss was to the All-Stars, so I'd like to see a repeat of that.

It's just that the results of winning the game seem to be more punishment than reward at this point.

I know exactly what you are saying Mingren. Although I dont think I have it in me to throw a game, I wasnt as pissed as I thought I was going to be if I woke up to a loss this morning.

Good game to the Legion, you guys had our number this season. If we dont see you back next season, we will get our revenge the following.

Mingren posts nonsense like this, and neglects the posts i make in the team forums.

Anyone looking for a defensive GM and an entire defensive squad?

Your team forums have to be pretty slim considering you and him are the only agents.

We have one other agent. He only has one player though.

But actually our forum has a fair amount of stuff in it. Although I would say 90% of it is jokes and random bs. We have different work schedules, so we communicate a lot through the forums now.

Well, I've really been looking forward to playing you since we got our team off the ground. I hope you play this game 100%, and hopefully you can put in 100% and not advance to AA. =)

Well played Allstars, though i have to admit that wasn`t a hard defeat to take considering the circumstances. Would have loved another home playoff game though. Congrats too for Long Island for that shock win against a rampant Prague team. Hope the game will be a good one!

Shock win?? We beat them twice.

Ok sorry, just my view. It was a shock for me as we`d beaten you quite comfortably earlier in the season but lost to Prague

I don`t really pay as much attention to the other games as i should so that`s what stuck with me. If someone beats me, i think they must be damn good

Also, Prague had beaten the Allstars late in the season and were probably the in-form team in the conference at the moment.

There's so many ways I can reply to this. I'm not sure what to say, really.
