Unbelievable...😠...game I completely dominated and I still lose 41-27 thanks to my quarterback forgetting which Jersey color was ours. 4 interceptions 3 of which returned for touchdowns. I'm about to the point of playing my 2nd and 3rd strings the rest of this season since it is a wasted year. I can have a good game plan and my team is still finding ways to lose..😠


First of all, you beat the spread. Becko made you a 21pts underdog in this game so losing by only 14 actually isn't bad at all

Also, without having looked much at your game 3 of your 4 interceptions were thrown over the middle. Throwing up the middle gives you a much higher chance to throw an interception which is why I, and most Elite teams, almost exclusively throw to the flanks.

And remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint. A bad record one year if you build your team well can help you learn a lot and be much better the following season. You're in a tough division too, with 3 very solid 1.1 teams with you. Good luck.

a lot of it is i haven't had time to work on game plans as much..slammed a guardrail last week in my 18 wheeler and been dealing with a lot of issues with that. It's just frustration of knowing my team wasn't ready for 1.1 yet and seeing them getting smoked and making mistakes each game. I pride myself in fielding teams that don't make mistakes or very few if at all and executin..neither of which has happened this season even in friendlies..lol

Several big games today, Becko predicts that 5 games this week should be decided by less than a TD.

Louisiana Lightning @ neroverde
neroverde is a 6pts favorite today and needs to win to stay in the Wild Card race with the Farmers and Jugones. The lightning probably won't make the PO this year but it's a good test for them as the team gets stronger.

Edinburgh Wildcats @ Ajalvir Destroyers
Becko makes the Wildcats 5pts favorite on the road for a game with potential huge PO implications already. If these two teams and Jacanas don't beat each other too much all 3 could make the PO but the Cowboys and ROMA + Bahia will also fight for a PO spot.

Milwaukee Beers @ Fargo Knights
Beers will be a 1pt favorite in this one but Fargo started the season 0-3 and really needs a win with the Jugones and Maykop in the division this is the type of game the Knights need to win if they want to have a chance to make the PO.

Bonaval Acorns @ Herrington Hurricanes
This one could have relegation implications at the end of the season. Bonaval has managed to keep his team in 1.1 for the past 4 consecutive seasons after 3 tough seasons in 2.x. The Hurricanes are still a bit young so Becko makes Acorns a 1pt favorite in this one.

Lyon Eagles @ Kumberg Cowboys
Becko predicts a 0pt difference in this one, really close game to be expected! Last time we were in the same division the Cowboys and I won a game each but the first game was in France. This time the Eagles travel to Austria to try and steal a big road win.

Good luck everyone, except Thommy

oh come on Meitheisman, nice to mention our game, but i sold all my Players with high wages. now i´m playing with a youth Team. maybe with all the luck i can reach the Playoffs.

this game today is only one game on a loooong way to competitiveness. hopefully in a few seasons i can attack the elite league again.

You're still a very good game planner Thommy so I was honestly worried enough about our game to create a completely new playbook just for you today.

I also only beat ROMA by 3pts in the season opener so I really don't think this game is a given.

Yeah I got lucky you sold all your vets else that'd have been a loss. Punting from your 3 yard line 3 times in one game

Good game Thommy.

You even managed to shank one for a loss of 5 yards

Perhaps he saw his father in the stands and punted a souvenir in his direction.

I shouldn't laugh though - my kicker missed an 18yd FG yesterday, after a team whose owner hadn't been online since June managed to pull a nice goal line stand out of the hat

Today, sadly that team is our first casualty - Glendale have gone bot. We will also only have one Elite team returning in season 23 - Secants are gone too.
