(just curious.) i had 104 wins last season & was completely dominating my league this season, then... suddenly lost 12 of 14 games. that happened during by far the weakest part of the schedule too! (vs. a bunch of teams with losing records). most of my players just suddenly decided to absolutely suck at the same time. (slump?) Of course i had really hot streaks in the past too, where it seemed i couldn't lose & players where performing way above expectations. So I guess just wondering is there anything else at play during winning/losing streaks? Or is each game completely it's own thing?
