Finally, it's wild that the pro sports model PUL decided to follow to crown their champion out of all the options available is the most reviled (NCAA College Football). (5/5)
If you don't want a game to count against your record, you need to call your team something else when you show up to play. If you show up to play as Team X and you're missing half your team, you wear the result, whatever it is. (1/x)
One of the most common refrains you'll hear from a pro athlete is "no one's going to feel sorry for us because player X is out, we need to go and get the result anyway." (4/x)
@poach187 @ab_cabra I think 3rd thru 7th were put into a combined pool, with any games already played between these teams on Saturday going toward this Sunday pool play so that at the end of Sunday, everyone in this pool has played every other team once.
@ab_cabra @poach187 I never saw formatting this ridiculous in my playing or coaching days. I saw some very convenient logic used to seed teams, but never saw the formats this far from logic.
@ab_cabra @poach187 UNH, not Maine, my bad.
Kudos to Brown for hosting, but if you have to bastardize the format to that degree to be able to host the tournament...you probably shouldn't be hosting the tournament.
@BrownShiver So, very much appreciated the newsletter, until I got to this part:
"...since 2005 (that's almost as old as our youngest rookie)..."
I feel so very old now.
@penny15club Everyone needs to go back to the location they were at when the call was made.
Often this is misinterpreted as O has to go back to where the D was when call happened. O goes to where they were, then D makes up position lost due to the infraction.
Rostering Kyle Pitts is fun because Iβm never gonna sit him so every time he busts all I have to say is βI mean itβs Kyle Pitts I canβt sit himβ
And then itβs no longer my fault my team keeps losing
