Posted by Jim Meyer on 03/16/2001 8:51 AM EST:



: I was just wondering if any teams out there have thought that they might be better off if they were not in the top 8?

: The fact that doing poorly in a match may help one team but hurt the other 3 has been bothering me. It just disappoints me that this aspect of the game is back.

: Is there anyone else out there that would like to see a system where it never helped a team to do poorly?

: Did last years system, where you could pick any team regardless of their seed, have some negative effect that I am not aware of?

I can not see how doing poorly in a match can help a team. Other than if they had a deal worked out with a higher seeded team( ie 1-4).

But from where I stand, Being in the top 8 is a goal we hope to achieve, and we would not do anything to purposely be lower than the top 8. If we have the chance.

Secondly, If we were in the top 4 and were the ones doing the selecting. If we knew a team purposely had a low score we would think twice about selecting a team that would be so selfish and not do anything to help the other 3 teams! After all isn't working together to the whole object!!!

You know Gracious Professionalism!!!!!!!!!
