So, guys, on the train home tonight I had some time to reflect on where we are... we're now 70 games into an 82 game schedule. Just like a lot of baseball systems seem to pack it in on Sept 1, I'm thinking we may have reached the point where it's time to call it a season. There was a button on the NHL website I looked at yesterday called "if the playoffs started today" or similar... the dogs the last few days, like EDM and COL, seem truly hopeless, and my wager tonight on the COL +PL was at even odds... do you think the oddsmaker believes they have a chance??
In the interest of not losing too much of my winnings, tonight is going to be my last official play of the season for this system. I'll track it to the end of the regular season, but my money will be elsewhere.
Whether you play or not is of course up to you, but if you look at the whinging going on in the JW Cash Serious cash thread, that system seems to have slowed down also. It's a problem in every league... some teams are playing for their checks, and some are playing for the Stanley Cup, and since they get paychecks win or lose, the motivation is a little different for the two groups. I'd like to be wrong.
I'm going to step away from the computer for a few days, so good luck whatever you do. I see rkelly you are active over in the MLB forum, and I'll probably follow you over there. Good luck to everyone else, thanks for playing along, and we'll see you around. Have fun!
