Weebrain, let me explain something that you have obviously overlooked, there are over 30 pro teams attending San Diego, some of whom have no chance and no inclination of trying to make next year’s cut.
Teams like Strange, Legacy, Bob's new team and so on, all of these are quite capable of making the Sunday club, never before have so many pro teams been assembled.
It is going to be extremely difficult for anybody to make the cut under these unique circumstances which is what a few teams will need to assure themselves for a place next year.
Now, as coach and joint owner of Nexus, what would you have me do, risk sending Nexus who I think are good enough to make the top 17 but in the environment just mentioned, only one small thing would have to go wrong (a couple of bad calls, a bad draw, an injury etc) and I could be on the wrong side of qualification.
Do you honestly think I am gonna risk qualifying under those circumstances if I have got another legitimate and more certain option of getting us in ?
I am 100% sure Nexus will assume a top 10 position next year because we have now re-instituted the same (if not harder) training regime since we got back from Vegas instead of just playing other teams as we have done up until Vegas.
The improvement has already begun but I cannot and will not risk allowing providence to determine whether or not Nexus get in next year, I would be a fool not to do what's best for my team, and believe me weedave, I ain't no fool !!!
