Sometimes I wish I wasn't so anti-tanking.

September 07, 2017 at 08:21PM View BBCode

I had a 2 game cushion on the 1st overall draft pick with 6 games to go but now we've won 4 of last 5 games and will not get it after all that. That is just who I am , I cannot knowingly tank at all. Even with a rebuilding team such as this , as terrible as we are right now , I can't throw in the towel even at the very end. Damn these Bad News Bears making a run at the most inopportune time!!

This is still not at all a bad looking draft class , so there is bounty for all.

Well, being 90 gb and not tanking is a horrible season . . . I knew it was going to be a long year, and it was. Remember, I was all alone in last place until Washington went on a huge losing streak in September.

I said that and in another league a team was 91GB.

Yes indeed we had a terrible 2nd half to the season , but it was with the same sad lineup I had all year. There are some decent looking youngsters to come up at some point but we will continue to lose in the meantime. It is a long haul but I knew that upon taking over this team. I enjoy the rebuilding process. I have other teams in the playoffs so it's not such a long offseason.

Yeah, I got one team that squeaked into the playoffs, but I haven't been able to beat my opponent all season so it may be a short post-season for me in that regard. But ya never know -- it ain't over 'til it's over.
