OT: Court Rivals Thread

so new thread..... new season coming up.... looking to see how many BEDGE teams are going to be left. Odenite has a 'possible' 2 spots available F/C and SG. PM Kersey Revival if interested, must have Premium and be seriously committed.

Congrats to BEdgers ( begrudgingly ) for being the sole team to make the playoff's. I think the remaining 3 will make it next season ( Brandon is taking 3 seasons... so we should too, right? ). Currently ranks are JB 71, Odenite 78 and Blazersedgers 80.

Also.... everyone should note Skill Trees for upcoming season... should really change things up and make it a little more interesting.

BlazersEdgers are still going strong

So we should be there next season. Your point about the skill trees is very good, everyone should understand how these will change this game completely. Personal chemistry’s are being toned down, and these skill trees will have a much bigger effect on not only individual players but on teams as well. We will all have to plan on who goes down what tree, and to what abilites, so there is again balance on the teams. Good luck to everyone!

Are all the teams requiring premium?

I train every day, but I don’t want to spend money on CR. My guy is available for a team that needs Reb/Def center. Both over 100.

JB doesn't require premium

but occasionally other team members have helped out the starving students … No promises for the future given the current economic conditions :-)

It's time to retire Terry Porter's jersey. Please!

Honka Playboys

Is still looking for players for next season. We don’t require premium, just that you do your best to train every day and you are active so we can get things done. We need a PG, C, 2 PF for next season. We’ll fill it from BE if we can, but if necessary we’ll look elsewhere on courtrivals.

Yep you were, you're more than welcome on Honka Playboys. We have a couple other old Red Unit players too.

Send me a PM on courtrivals so I know to drop someone for you (we’re trying to avoid any games with filler players).

Definitely

We’re rebuilding from the ground up then taking CR by storm next season. Sort of like the blazers really. Spots on the roster are still open (PG, PF, PF, maybe C) if you feel like a ring on every finger is gonna be a good look for you in a few years.

I was thinking about restarting Abraham Lincoln

Would there be a spot for him back on Honka?

by kickbrass on Oct 18, 2008 11:26 AM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

oh man

I think I took your spot.

Last I heard, we were still in need of several players.

If you are somewhat new to BlazersEdge...

then this thread is possibly the most confusing thread you’ve ever seen. I personally don’t have a clue what everyone is talking about… lol someone please hit me over the head with a hammer…or take a moment to explain just what you are all talking about. Thanks from the nosebleeds

I never thought about that....

Well, Court Rivals is this pretty nifty internet game where you take create and train a simulated basketball player, form teams and play against others. It’s only about half a year old, but there are a decent number of people playing (~5000 active would be my guess).

Check it out here http://www.courtrivals.com/

So, word of this game spread to BE during the offseason and due to the horrid lack of Blazer news became semi-popular as a way to kill time. Many teams were formed, as well as bitter rivalries, simulated stats and games are kept track of for gloating purposes and posts like these are a way to coordinate all the wheelings, dealings and trashtalk.

Spreadsheet updated

http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=pR9UfPvKWC0b902MfARodAg

I just finished updating all the teams info on our Blazers Edge Spreadsheet. Looks like only BEdgers will make the playoffs this season, good luck to BEdgers!

by usmcr3049 on Oct 17, 2008 1:39 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Very nice

Next update should include Honka Playboys though!

Some good games happening tonight

BEdgers vs Odenites for the last unplayed rivalry of the season.

Just Blaze has a must win vs a College A team tonight to keep their teensy playoff hopes alive (we are 26 points out of the #64 spot).

by moko on Oct 18, 2008 10:03 AM PDT reply actions   0 recs

it seems like everytime we play a fellow BE team, its a rivalry game...

Good luck Odenite, you got us in training credits so it should be a good game…

Does that make your player Derek Fisher?

I honestly meant that of the combinations of the 4 teams this is the one matchup that hasn’t been played yet. They’re ALL rivalries in my parlance :)

by moko on Oct 18, 2008 4:38 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

me too, I was just messin with ya....

I just really don’t want our squad resembling anything close to the F*kers, and I especially don’t want to be Derek Fishface. I like to consider our team the hornets. We are a young team coming into the playoffs looking for some upsets. In a season or two, we should be contending. Not to mention that would make me Chris Paul ;)

RUDY > MJ

by myemic23 on Oct 18, 2008 5:03 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Considering we'll probably just miss the playoffs

that would make us the Warriors. And me Stephen Jackson.

Now there’s a disturbing thought…

by moko on Oct 18, 2008 5:33 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

considering that we have the most TCs (highest salary?)

And still didn’t make the playoffs … does that make us the Knicks, which would make me Stephon Marbury? YIKES

by kickbrass on Oct 18, 2008 8:50 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

but only the most TC's of BE related teams, right?

so, I think that makes you the 2000 Blazers

Good luck to the Bedgers tomorrow

BE’s only playoff representative.

Funny … their schedule shows them playing Odenite for the third day in a row, but the playoff bracket shows them playing SOHH … which is the team JB is scheduled to play tomorrow. Small small world. I wonder if JB and BGTO will end up playing one another.

Lots of people

are picking BEdgers over SOHH in the official bracket challenge – but no one picks them to win in the 2nd round … but only the real risk takers would bet against Dyestat. Too bad you guys ended up in the bracket with the defending champs!. Best of luck anyway.

by jorga on Oct 20, 2008 10:28 AM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

BEdgers lose 101-127

SOHH wins AGAIN – I’m a homer and wanted BEdgers to win, but my money would have had to have been on SOHH with their 14 (now 15) game streak. They creamed Just Blaze a week ago…

One nice result

Petromancers beat the Tanks. Which is nice since the Petromancers’ captain is one of the best posters in the forums (IMO) while the Tanks players are all amount the most annoying.

"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life,(of the Blazers), (of KP's madness), of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity." - Albert Einstein

who has just been named to this season’s CR First Team!

He changed his name and his stats went through the roof:

Rebounds Per Game : 18.0
Assists Per Game : 1.8
Field Goal % : 0.467
3 Point % : 0.000
Free Throw % : 0.779
Steals Per Game : 0.5
Blocks Per Game : 0.8
Turnovers Per Game : 1.5

Congratulations to Baron Von Wafer!

I’m reminded of all those posts in the General forum with people saying how impossible it was to average a double double. Hopefully some of those guys look at the stats for the First Team players.

Just Blaze needs a player

Our new recruit for this season jumped ship. We need a wing player ASAP, preferably a SG who can shoot the 3, but a shooting SF would work too. Respond to Fewmit on CR.

oh wow....

hey guys…. I was a little miffed about you poching our guy anyway…. but you did us a favor I think . Looking for that filler player is a tough one. No bad blood… … but it is a feel good story for us.

Hard to find dedicated players that will play team ball. Odenite moved up to College A and taking the BEdgers formula for rating… .we’ll see how it goes.
