no trainees, small stadium, older players,

I consider those to be positives. Your problem was not having *enough* players IMO.

we never have figured out what you are doing -- my guess is music: your boys' day job is performing in a small classical orchestra or maybe doing Duke Ellington arrangements for weddings.

that recent Miami game -- where they came from 27 down to win -- got me thinking. as much as i like BB, i must say i have never seen teams come storming back from huge deficits to win a game. the only exception is when the dopey AI coach subs at the beginning of the 4th period and waits too long to replace the scrubs.

so i wanted to ask: does anyone have any stories of great comebacks (or, from the opposite perspective, having lost huge leads)?

Jelme had a ridiculous comeback vs. I think Postal one time, like 20pts in the 4th quarter. Might have been playoffs too. I'll try to find it.

Edit: can't find it, kinda tough since he quit the game. maybe I can catch him online and see if he remembers
for my team's part, they only blow ~10 pt leads in the fourth

I know it was only a PL game, but this is my best ever comeback.

I was down 8 with 27 seconds to go and Ritter buried three 3 pointers in the final 27 second, aided by a steal and a missed free throw to force overtime where I was able to win the game. The icing on the cake though was that it was against FatCurry and Lundy :) Ritter ended up scoring the last 12 points (four 3 pointers) in regulation for my team all in the last 40 seconds of the game. And to top it off, Ritter went 8/10 from the FT line in OT to help seal the win. Definitely would have been a March Madness worthy performance.

Wow I thought Ritter had a history of making me lose but that game is insane. 52 points against a 3-2 zone heads up with Lundy? 8-12 from 3pt? hahahaha ouch for Fatcurry

Jelme found it for me

I didn't watch the replay to figure out the bleakest point but that's at least a 19-point hole at the start of the fourth!

That game almost gave me a heart attack... On a side note, I think I put up the best ratings I've ever had tonight.
