Makes sense

Correct. I don't work 12-13 hours per day, I just need to monitor emails. And I honestly don't think everyone understands emails. If you need an immediate response, call me, I have a phone too. But, far too many times, an email will sit for 20-30 minutes and they'll send a follow-up wanting to know if I got the first one.

LOL. I recall starting a similar thread. The first responder essentially said "You don't know ****. No way do you know if you should be winning or losing." I wonder why he didn't respond that way this time? Did he look at the team and the results? Or is he simply a hypocrite?

OMG troll..get a life...

I've ran my own business for almost 20 years. I have no boss and customers on both coasts. Over the last 5-6 years, 90% of communication is via email. So I have to have internet access for roughly 12-13 hours per day. If you see me posting after 5 PM PST, I'm obviously bored.

That must be where you honed all your "people skills"...

Do you know what "irony" means? Apply it.

Did you offer any advice? Anything helpful? Anything of note? No, you did not. Help the guy, explain something or don't bother. I read his post before you posted. I looked at his team/games, formed an opinion and decided it was better let more experienced users reply. Except you replied with nonsense.

So did I unnecessarily call you out? I think not.

Oh okay, because my post didn't add any value you decided to pick a fight with me. All of your posts are super important and always helpful, I'm sure.

Thanks for being the forum police Mike.

Welcome to Hoops Dynasty.

For the sake of the OP.

I was lazy with my post. Here's what I should have said.

Welcome to Hoops Dynasty. In this game it is not uncommon to win games you shouldn't and lose games you shouldn't. It can be pretty unpredictable at times. However, when you play the game longer, you'll be able to better assess talent levels of teams and won't get as upset over the losses. Feel free to sitemail me if you have questions or need advice.

Benis, the OP's issue is playing guys too long who don't have stamina. 32 minutes in his last game for a guy with 78 stamina.

Yeah thats very true. One of things that comes with experience is understanding how to read the results of the pbp

I miss wardo's in depth analysis of his box scores....

No, I wasn't necessarily right either. I COULD have left well enough alone but, when you're a hypocrite, I like to point it out to you. Not that you'll change but, if nothing else, my post made you rethink your worthless reply. And that seemed to kickstart the thread just a tiny bit to where he actually got some good advice. Thanks to neither of us.

If I was the forum police, I'd arrest whoever keeps reporting me. So, wrong again, old wise one, err, hypocrite.

You're my hero mike.

He sure could read those numbers.

Didn't meant to start world war three but thanks for the advice I know I play my starters too much but my bench sucks

btw I'm not a noob I've played 50 plus seasons in the past just started this up again I do know I never should have lost that double or game or the one to Wilmington but probably shouldn't have won my first game so I guess I'm even
