I've been enjoying your front page stuff, and your add on to my rookie article was great. The league doesn't seem very active post or trade wise, which really sucks, but maybe it will pick up once we start to have GM meetings, which I think are badly needed.

I personally don't enjoy reading articles about how the sabes are doing this year:) haha but hopefully that will come in a few years..
What's your goal for this season? to make the playoffs? to have certain players perform or certain lines click? to at least beat Boston? (the two teams pegged to finish in the basement of the Northeast)... your team is built for the future, so stories about burgeoning individual players and the prospects development outside the league would be most relevant.

haha ya we know that, and knew that would be the case. We just have to set other goals for our team. 1 being make some money for the year somehow.
I think more kudos are need here Vanny, you're just doing an awesome job. To see so much new content up on the site EVERY day is something I haven't seen in any other league I'm in. Honestly keep up the great work, it makes the league very enjoyable.

Quite the contrary, your team is very skilled, as you know.
2-4 record may not appear encouraging but consider that three of those losses have come from interconference play. Tampa is 2-1 in conference play. And with the schedule, it's one's competitiveness within a division that will make or break a team: 2 games against each team outside one's division, 8 games against each team within the division. And, of course, every time you win against a divisional or conference opponent you double your chances for a playoff position (compared to the mere half-game at stake when playing a team from the other conference).
It's way too early to panic. It'll take at least 6 games AGAINST DIVISIONAL opponents before a sense of competitiveness emerges.
But, uh, Tampa seems to be playing in one of the most competitive divisions, so it could be hard to get 8 or 16 easy wins. If only your team was in the Northeast. If only my team was there! The Atlantic is very competitive too.
