as 5 o'clock strikes, this is a new week in HT!!!

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 04:02 PM

here we go again, HT is true to itself and is delivering us Canadians our weekly fix of league games. Don't worry my American friends, you'll get yours later on

For now, not much has happened, the reporters are still all stuck in traffic. I'll let you know more when I have more...

FM

NAIWF · 08-03-2003, 04:07 PM

Those reporters are overpaid imho

I can't wait for my exciting game vs a bot later today.

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 04:08 PM

Wow, only 3 minutes were necessary for the Pittbulls to score one...

Pintendre´s Mats Bohin gave the visitors a 0 - 1 lead in the 3rd minute with a superb strike from the right.

Gotta say this is our first match against a better human opponent. They posted a 54 NSI in their last week loss 4-1 to the div III demotee. They play a 3-4-3 and had not posted a midfield better than weak in a few weeks. I would assume they didn't PIC last week. We posted a 52 last week (PICing), but a 57 in our cup win later on in the week (PICing again)... In a few minutes I'll post all the Canadian teams active with team numbers...

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 04:14 PM

Here are the Canadian teams currently playing:

Pintendre Pittbulls (108238) are up 1-0 after 10
Bbors (29830) are down 0-1 after 10
Les Joujoux (72681) are tied 0-0 after 10
Walk-In Special (72396) are tied 0-0 after 10
Machine (107703) are tied 0-0 after 11

Since Goldfish as apparently give up his team (not logged in in the last two weeks) I won't report on him anymore...

FM

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 04:23 PM

updated scores:

uh-oh... my solid goalie just went down injured... backup is inad... this doesn't bode well... :-)

(walk-in special)

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 04:32 PM

at or around the 30 minutes mark, here are the scores:

Pittbulls are up 1-0
Bbors are tied 1-1
Les Joujoux are up 3-0
Walk-In Special are down 0-1
Machine are down 0-1

FM

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 04:49 PM

At the half...

Pittbulls are up 1-0 with 44% possession

Bbors are tied 1-1 with 47% possession
Les Joujoux are up 3-0 with 65% posession
Walk-In Special are down 0-1 with 60% possession
Machine are down 0-5 with 27% possession

I'm shocked with that 44% possession. I really thought we had the advantage of the midfield. I'm playing a trainee at inner mid though and that may be the cause of it... We gotta hang in there, we got the lead!

FM

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 05:24 PM

CRAP! now down 1-2. I'm seriously thinking we've been MOTSed...

FM

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 05:41 PM

COME ON PITTBULLS!!! ONE GOAL! we need only one goal to tie it up!!! 4 minutes left...

FM

FrogMan · 08-03-2003, 05:52 PM

well looks like I blew it. We lost 1-2 and were outclassed in the midfield, getting only 44 and 26% possession. We got a weak midfield, down from a PIC inadequate in the cup last wednesday, and they got an inadequate, up from any weak I've seen from them for many weeks... So much for having a delirious team spirit. I downplayed the importance of form and played some trainees in the midfield. Not bad trainees, but one of them (playing at wings toward the middle) had poor form and it showed, as he only got one star...

Elsewhere in Canada:

Bbors lost 2-5
Les Joujoux won 4-0
Walk-In Special lost 0-3
Machine lost 0-7

Good luck everyone in your upcoming games!

DukeRulesMAB · 08-03-2003, 06:10 PM

Up 1-0 on the first update.

Amazingly enough, one of my series teams is already up 4-0 in the first 10 minutes!

NAIWF · 08-03-2003, 06:10 PM

I scored in the 1st minute, and gave up a goal to a bot in the 6th. So much for the shut out streak against the worst team I've played in over a month

The Afoci · 08-03-2003, 06:13 PM

Up 1-0 playing mostly backups PICing so my starters can go against GM-Spidurman in the cup. Now to see if he is playing his starters today or saving them for me...

thealmighty · 08-03-2003, 06:15 PM

Fear is down 1-0 already to last years series champs. Could be a long one, or maybe they got lucky. Yeah, that's the ticket.

larrymcg421 · 08-03-2003, 06:17 PM

Up 2-0 in the 16th minute.. Forward Daryl Breeden has two goals already and is looking for a hat trick.

The Afoci · 08-03-2003, 06:19 PM

It looks like he is only leaving 3 starters available for the game against me. I should be able to take him if he plays his back ups.

NAIWF · 08-03-2003, 06:21 PM

Dallas made a bid to take the lead as a ball coming in from the right hand side left Lonnie Corbin completely alone with keeper Joseph Amos, who made a spectacular block.

This is NOT cool, how the hell do they have 2 shots already, and a goal when I only have 1? Their ratings dictate a disatrous/wretched midfield, while I have at least a weak. Grrr

McSweeny · 08-03-2003, 06:21 PM

0-0 so far and the only update has been my winger getting carded... i'm starting to get a little nervous about PICing this one

The Afoci · 08-03-2003, 06:24 PM

Seaman up 1-0 over the hated Croats of Miami. Tyler Willard went down hard which is a huge loss. Hold on DK!

AccardoOutfit29 · 08-03-2003, 06:27 PM

McGees are up 2-0. PICing against some crappy bot team.

NAIWF · 08-03-2003, 06:27 PM

Vitali Ilmjärv still has a lot to learn. Like for instance not to make half-hearted passes in front of Mick Bueno who now could score for Dallas. to 2-1.

Are you FUCKING kidding me?

3 straight chances and 2 goals since my 1st minute tally? I'm going to lose to a bot

larrymcg421 · 08-03-2003, 06:28 PM

In the 24th minute I am up 3-0. Both my forwards have scored in their race for the scoring title.

In other news, Oh Buddha, the runner up in V.16 last season, who averages a 51 NSI to my 49, have been replaced by a brand new team. I don't know why they were replaced, but this really weakens the series and means I can keep PIC'ing until week 9.

I may get out of Div V a season earlier than I'm supposed to.

AccardoOutfit29 · 08-03-2003, 06:29 PM

3-0 now.

Jack Mcghee increased the visitors lead by putting a volley shot away on a pass from the right. 0 - 3.

larrymcg421 · 08-03-2003, 06:30 PM

Seamen are up 1-0 on Croats in Miami! Go Seamen!

thealmighty · 08-03-2003, 06:31 PM

Down 2-0 now. Goodbye, High-on-Life.

YoSoySean · 08-03-2003, 06:32 PM

Boooo... technical vs. head defender specialty gives my opponent the goal... tied at 1.

AccardoOutfit29 · 08-03-2003, 06:32 PM

4-0 McGees.

McGees´s George Crow received a play slashing through the home side´s defense in the 32nd minute, chipping it past the keeper scoring 0 - 4. The home crowd was not pleased with that one.

McSweeny · 08-03-2003, 06:33 PM

33 minutes in and still just the one update...

The_herd · 08-03-2003, 06:33 PM

Ruskies trail 1-0 on the road to a very bad team that just promoted from Div VI.

I'm not happy.

NAIWF · 08-03-2003, 06:33 PM

Dallas's Jerry Kent scored 3 - 1 by shooting accurately and hard from a long distance, leaving the opponent goalie no other option than to pick up the ball from the net.

Today is my last day playing Hat Trick. This is UTTER BULLSHIT. a 29 NSI bot team has 3 event goals on me already, and 4 chances.

thealmighty · 08-03-2003, 06:35 PM

down 3-0. Every chance they have had is a goal. I have, apparently, not touched the ball yet.

Oh, well, at least I can go eat dinner now.

larrymcg421 · 08-03-2003, 06:35 PM

4-0 Pirates. Hyman Baker scored his 2nd of the match. Both my forwards have 2 now.

larrymcg421 · 08-03-2003, 06:43 PM

6-0 on a goal by Winger Leland Olvera. Now we're pulling back.

McSweeny · 08-03-2003, 06:46 PM

0-0 at the half with 59% possesion for me and just one update

here's to hoping i didn't make a mistake PICing and can pull a goal or 2 out of the second half

NAIWF · 08-03-2003, 06:46 PM

3 - 2 was the half-time score. Manhattan, bringing the final ball possession rate to 78 percent, dominated the battle.

YES, I gave up FOUR shots in the first half to a bot team with 22% possession.

YES, I am losing to them

The_herd · 08-03-2003, 06:46 PM

Pretty much sucks so far.

In the games 12th minute Lester Vogt almost gave the visitors the lead, as he clipped a spectacular scissors shot just past the bar. Woodrow Bonilla gave his Wattana the lead with 1 - 0, as he successfully challenged both the guests central defenders, then placed the ball unreachably at the goaltenders right post. The referee showed Wattanas Benjamin Sutherland the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. After 21 minutes Wattanas Bruce Kiebbe had to be carried off on a stretcher in agony. Kurtis Johnson came in instead of him. The teams went for a half-time break at 1 - 0. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Ruskies, with an impressive 66 percent possession of the ball.

MacroGuru · 08-03-2003, 06:51 PM

0 - 0 at the half with to FOFCers battling it out.

Krondor vs Ajax Hawks.

Since the game is going, I sold 2 key MF's yesterday, and scrambled to put together a rag tag band of MF's.

I also planned the MOTS to happen for this cause I am PIC the cup game, playing normal the next league game, and able to PIC the two bot teams after.

Hawks only have a 52% possession on me right now.

I did lose my best defender though.

The Afoci · 08-03-2003, 06:55 PM

I am tied at 1 with big possession. Should take care of business in the second half!

Havok · 08-03-2003, 06:56 PM

The teams went for a half-time break at 3 - 0. The fortyfive minutes were dominated by Maniacal, with an impressive 73 percent possession of the ball.

terpkristin · 08-03-2003, 06:56 PM

Bummer on the loss, FM.
At the halftime of my game, these are the only updates I've gotten thus far:

The referee showed Lionss Galen Easley the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. 0 - 0 was the half-time score. Terps held the ball, with a clear 60 percent possession rate.

Hmmm.

robbgmaier · 08-03-2003, 07:01 PM

I'm down 5-nil at the half, picing and playing back ups on the road. No two teams combined to score five goals on my last season, but then, my V.230 was worse than the pitbulls all bot league

Everyone, a kind thought that I might just score a goal, and...oh yeah, a Baconfats loss would be nice also

and...GO SEAMEN....WOOT

The_herd · 08-03-2003, 07:02 PM

2nd half underway, the Ruskies have their rally caps on.

The_herd · 08-03-2003, 07:08 PM

And the Ruskies injure a 2nd Anuban player.

50 minutes into the game Jerome Skaggs had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came Ken Doran.

NAIWF · 08-03-2003, 07:11 PM

Still losing 3-2 to a damned bot team. I don't get it.
