With no money to spend and no hope of unloading my overpriced veterans, this is what I'm going to have to work with to avoid 100 losses (not bloody likely)

Prediction: 62-100. This team is old, and like all good things in life, must die soon. The faster the team totally dies, the sooner the rebuilding can begin...someone please tell me we could avoid 100 losses, just so that I don't feel too bad.
