SIM COMPLETE - 1996 - SIM 11

Hey, we could be agreeing on the mysterious nature of Woodbury's post 34 year old dominance.

I would prefer to talk about the rash of injuries suffered by Virginia this season, after years of near-perfect health, following a purely coincidentally timed offseason discussion about competitive balance in light of Virginia's dominance.

I forgot my new catchphrase. Boom.

not sure you can take credit for that.

I don't really understand how the fan interest works sometimes. Mine has fallen from 75 to 67 over the past couple sims. I have no clue why, since I haven't cut anyone popular and my team is having its best season in years. Maybe my fans just prefer seeing us lose.

Could be alot of your players are unknown. It will go up overtime. You've only been good for 1/2 season in like 8-9 years so forgiveness doesn't happy overnight.

Your merchandising might take a few years to catch up! Player of the "week", "month" and Allstar appearances all starts to adds up.

We are still at .500, desperately needing to get over that hump. I'm hoping Carolina's young guns will collapse down the stretch in a similar fashion to the '94 Brawlers. Yet they are better than us last year so I don't think that will happen to them this year. Which means we need to focus on that WC which is a fuzzy picture for us too.

I want this team to provide more clarity once we hit the trade deadline. There are some assets that we could deal if we are in the basement of the WC, Hanrahan or even Jones would be one of them.

Commissioner Bush called us today to congratulate us for going 8-4 in our last 11 games. Thanks W!

Your players are dicks.

But it wasn't the off-season. It was, I believe, 19 games into the season when Virginia was like 17-2.

Anyway, yes, let's discuss. You can begin.

I stole it from a Boomer in GOTW3.

If we did have the mythical injury switch... wouldn't I be an idiot to use it on Daly?

I mean, I'm an idiot anyway.... but why Daly? And why for the rest of the season?

Wouldn't it make more sense to knock him out until like late September?

Or maybe knock out Woodbury? His time in Virginia is passed. He made it to 500. Why not Woodbury?

Why would I do it to my thinnest position in the organization - OF?

I mean... if I'm going through this much effort to cheat all these years... wouldn't I (A) cover my tracks better and (B) still give myself a chance to win to play the "no one believed in us after XXXX injury"?

Come on people... You all know my life is about screwing you people with my team. I'd be slicker than this.

Hey, I didn't say anything. But, I'll play devil's advocate since you're asking the question.

Perhaps the point is to not make it look obvious?
