Basterds @ Deflators
Basterds 1) Congratulations you have made the bowl game and gained promotion to Elite league. Knowing you have been promoted where is your main focus right now? Winning the Bowl game or the tough challenge that lies ahead in the Elite league next season? Thanks Mate! I'm really happy I finally made it to the bowl and I just want to enjoy it. Of course I need to think about my future roster in EL and there will be some tough decisions to be made. But for now I want to win the Bowl of course 
2) When the playoff campaign started, did you ever think you would have realistically made it to the bowl game? Well, as I learned in PO everything is possible. So yes - I knew I had a chance to go to the Bowl. Actually the win against thomastem in our first game was some kind of pushing factor as my team proved it could really beat anybody. If it was realistically? No, I don't think so but somebody else needs to prove that... 3) How do you intend to counter against the threat that Deflators pose? Hmm, no idea yet but I think I won't change anything dramatically. Good Luck IMGregory - nice to meet you again after your promotion to EL 3 seasons ago (Fun Fact: from NC South 3 promotions to EL in last 4 seasons). Deflators 1) Congratulations on your promotion to the Elite League and getting to the Bowl Game, Knowing you have been promoted where is your main focus right now? Winning the Bowl game or the tough challenge that lies ahead in the Elite league next season? Winning the Bowl game. We already know we're still not where we need to be in order to be competitive against the true Elite-caliber teams. In fact, if anything, next season will mark a transitional phase at best and a mini-rebuilding phase at worst. This game will be the last game for 3 of our 4 starting D-linemen, plus our starting running back. I could've convinced both my running back and one of my D-lineman to stay another season, and possibly would've if we didn't make it this far. But at the cost of $20,000,000 and the fact that I'll just be making up the numbers in Elite, it just wasn't financially sensible. 2) Being in the bowl game, Do you prepare any differently for this tie than you usually would because of the importance of the tie? This time, yes, but that's only because I feel like I can actually win it. Last time I was here, I treated it as just another game knowing at that point I was lucky just to get there and realistically had no chance of winning. 3) You were favourites going into the off season to win the Bowl. What problems are you expecting your opposition to give you? I'm honestly less worried about our opponents and more worried about ourselves. We've spent the majority of both our playoff games playing from behind. Lately we seem to have gotten into the bad habit of letting off the gas pedal a little too early. We got lucky in both instances that we either snapped out of it just in time, or our opponents let us off the hook, or both. A team like the Basterds certainly will keep us down if they a comfortable enough lead on us. We should know from our time as division foes. Last edited on 2017-03-03 16:39:24 by passionatelad |

THUNDER 2.2 BOWL
PGI Andorre Solutions @ San Francisco Miners PGI Andorre Solutions 1) Congrats on making the thunder 2.2 Bowl Game and gaining promotion. With the result expected to be one sided, How much of your focus will now be on next season? Thank you! Well, we are currently looking to replace some important positions, there are some veterans retiring so this final is an intermediate step to see if the new players adapt right to the team feeling. 1.1 It has been a pain in the ass for this team, hope won't be next year. 2) You are returning to the Thunder 1.1 league, Do you feel you are more prepared this time round for the challenge it gives? Yes, it will be my 4th season in charge at 1.1 and I'd say we are one of the surprising team for next season. Our goals are set in playoffs so we'll see. San Francisco Miners - POST GAME 1) Congrats on making the thunder 2.2 Bowl Game and gaining promotion. With the result expected to be one sided, How much of your focus will now be on next season? "We didn't really expect it to be one-sided, you know, and it wasn't. Our players all stepped up. We just wanted to get out there, work hard, and do our jobs. We're never really looking to the future. What we're focusing on is right now. It was a hard loss, but we're going to be hitting our off-season training hard. No days off." - Carol Battle, QB, San Francisco Miners "You know, our general manager is always looking to the future. He's always trying to scout new talent, to get new weapons, but I think what we're focusing on right now is to do our jobs and do our best to win." - Aubrey Winters, RB, San Francisco Miners 2) What changes do you feel you need to make in the off season to try and ensure survival? and do you have the patience to see out what will be a difficult season and come back the season after? "You know, I can't stress it enough, but our defense and special teams always need work. Carol does a good job at keeping the gas pedal on the offense but it's our defense that needs to pick up the slack." - Billie Lyman, WR/G, San Francisco Miners Last edited on 2017-03-08 09:13:47 by passionatelad |

My 2.2 Bowl victory was against Andore so many seasons ago. Andore had snuck by the LM Pirates to get to the bowl. Will Andore put his big boy pants on and compete in the real league next season?
