For clarity, the national tournaments are split in 4 regions......so if you win your region and make the Final Four you are awarded a trophy for winning your region. This is similar to how the actual NCAA Tournament works

Wouldn't it be better to make the invitationals count for something? Make those games count and then award a trophy for winning it. Much better to do something for all of the managers in the game instead of just a few. Updated Wednesday, November 15 2023 @ 4:43:31 pm PST

And making it to the top 4 means you came out of your 1-16 seed bracket as the only survivor much like real life. While I just said more trophies is cool I’ve gotta push back in invitation trophies. Trophies are only cool when they mean something and I don’t think winning a invitation is really that meaningful, they aren’t even real games for counting stats, and there is like 50 of them. Also every manager has an opportunity to get a trophy every year, the conference playoffs which can also lead to another trophy in the tournament. Why give out participation trophies when they should be for players who pull of feats of victory against top competition.

Blackbeard Joined: 03/17/2019 Posts: 561 St. Johns Red Storm IV.2	@Dytrea123 Did you read my comment? Doesn't seem like you did. Here it is copy and pasted below. "Wouldn't it be better to make the invitationals count for something? Make those games count and then award a trophy for winning it." Who said it would be "participation trophies?" I didn't say that. The invitationals as they are pretty much a waste of time. Perhaps expanding the invitationals in to a NIT tourney so that more than just 64 teams get an opportunity to win another trophy or 2 that mean something. Wouldn't that be better for the entire manager population instead of just catering to a select few teams? Perhaps it would be better to actually get the facts straight before dismissing a comment because you don't like it. Updated Thursday, November 16 2023 @ 10:46:19 am PST
