    Meh... too many head-to-head games left to wave the white flag. I too am a subscriber to the 'hot month' in OOTP and the roles could certainly be reversed in September and October (when we play). Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to play the Lou Holtz card and pretend that I don't feel good about my chances to make my first post-season, but I'm certainly not counting on it. Between Poling, McSwain, Maeda and Herrrera, I'm getting at least one injury that results in missed games to an important piece each SIM. If that doesn't stop, I can and will fall quickly.

    That being said, a chance to get my 80th win before September 1st when you're a franchise that has only 4 seasons with 80 or more wins in league history (87 being the most) is quite exciting.

      There is no way you miss the playoffs. I would put my chances at catching you in the Stout at 100/1.

        OK, I'll bet you $1 at 100/1 that you catch me.

          I wouldn't want to pay you for your collapse. That would look bad.

            Fine. But you know as well as I do, if anyone can blow this, it's me (which by the way was Linty's Senior Quote).

              I thought it was, "When in doubt, never pullout."

                Or...

                "Do I pull ON 3... like 1, 2, 3!?!?! Or is it 1, 2, 3 then pull?"

                    Your playoff odds are 94.9...I wouldn't surrender too much.

                      No, I think I'm almost a lock for the Wild Card. I'm waving the white flag for the Stout. Makes me sick that Clay is going to win it.

                        If you can't win, wouldn't I be your first choice?

                          No. Morgantown would be. You would be my 3rd choice to win the division.

                            So, you'd rather get beat by an expansion team than a team that you've watched spend 10 years building?
