For those that play in 32 user leagues.

Have you noticed any "handicapping" effect to give poor players the advantage over top players?

So far in my league, when a team with a stellar record faces an opponent with a terrible record, that terrible team seems to get a hidden momentum boost and in the majority of cases, will get the win.

I really hope that this is just coincidence, as it would really kill this game if control was taken out of the users hands.

I'm not sure I've noticed anything like that, I think the results are varied week to week this year and I like that. Just like in real life, sometimes you have a bad game. Sometimes the dice rolls don't go your way.

I'll have to keep my eye on it. It could very well be a coincidence, but it has been an awfully large coincidence in our first season so far. Thanks for the reply. I'm glad to hear that you haven't experienced this!
