woodchuck said:to go out like that must be tough. well, thanks for participating!
looks like i have a rematch with shinobi next
obligatory man down pic:
Much props to woodchuck and Astrolad for setting up the league. Thanks guys. I had a great time. I'm down for whenever season 2 starts.
defeated shinobi 1-2 and 3-2
he probably outplayed me but since he's toronto fc, and i'm lyon, i was able to beat him. if he was a better team, things would have been a lot different.
pretty much the only reason i won that 2nd game was because govou was twice as fast as everyone on his team...but the winner by Benzema in the 1st game was beautiful.

Yeah
I'll try to get my matches against strikevillain today I'm pretty sure he'll be home watching the barca/madrid game.
And damn woodchuck, cleanin' up son
I been playin' a lot, but I still cant finish unfortunately
That second game was just insane. I couldn't get through your defence in the first game at all and your win was totally deserved, but the second game was pretty much the exact opposite of the first one. Maybe it would've been different if you hadn't gotten a red card though, but I guess we'll never know 
very good games!
very good games!

i sent Sneak a message to see if we can play for losers tourney. nothing yet
very good games replayy, I'm glad I scored that early goal in our second game. If you'd gotten the lead it really could've gone either way.
Got lucky with my late goal in the first game as well, I thought it was pretty smart of you to tackle my player since the red card didn't matter much that late in the game. Nailed the free kick though
Looking forward to the next game.

yeah guys, sorry. i dont think we'll be doing a loser's tournament. too many people are MIA to play (pretty much all of the EU tournament and Magicked). sorry guys.
and looks like Fiorentina is in the championship game...riding the skill of MURGU. you might have to wait a while to play that championship game since the NA side of the bracket isn't finalized.
and holy shit. ac milan with the huge upset over real madrid. daaaaaamn

haha, yeah I felt a bit shit taking you down but I thought 'fuck it, it's the 90th minute & I need to keep it level!'. That worked out well :lol

Haha, I probably would've done the same thing myself to be honest
from that distance I just smash it into the corner which works pretty well. woodchuck said:
Yeah, that's cool. I look forward to playing someone from the NA division! I hope Murgu will come through for me when it really matters.

id like some team action as well.
so I finally got tired of RobMonge. ChrisGoldstein was supposed to play him in the quarterfinal match. The guy never responds to messages even when he's on live. It's frustrating trying to schedule a game with him as I've received complaints about him in the past.
See, I understand if you're busy. But he never posts because he doesn't have a GAF account (he signed up through his friend apparently). He ignores xbox live messages and never responds even though he's on Live a ton. If he just messaged me/astrolad or his opponent, it wouldn't have come to this. oh well.
So AC Milan automatically advanced to the next round to face me. In both his games, he got two early red cards on breakaways that changed the entire game and let me cruise to victory.
Exypher, looks like it's you and me!
I think you should be the home team since you're the higher seed.
I should be free after 6 pm GMT tomorrow (wednesday).

Yeah season 2 should be much better, I can chip in a few bucks as well.
Damn my defense sucked badly last night.
Good season though

Season 2 we were kicking around the idea of doing table format (i.e. no playoffs) MLS. Reason being it's a nice small league, probably the perfect size if all the reliable people stay on and after doing two season with playoffs you just start to realize that many people just completely drop out the second they're eliminated; it's just more fun to have everyone involved to the end. We'll have sign-ups in the first week of the new year.
