Groovy! Now the only thing you have to do is, when you come to the board write your post, right click wherever you want to place your link and click on "paste" . then the link will come up.

So,

1. League Standings
2. Right click
3. Click on copy link (nothing will happen)
4. On your post right click.
5. Click on Paste.

Voila

:)

The problem--and this is by far the biggest weakness with SOM baseball--is that the closer rating is not an effectiveness rating, it's an endurance rating. Being a "6" only means Lidge can potentially close for two innings, which is not what he actually does, plus it doesn't insure that he'll do it well. Meanwhile, Balfour gets a "3" for 4 saves, meaning he can pitch a full inning and get 41 saves in Strat, while Lidge, who actually had 41, will be lucky to get 4 with that card. There's no reaosn why pitchers shouldn't have "clutch" effects just like hitters do.

A team can name anyone as their closer which means that he will get a closer rating in Strat. Just because a pitcher has a closer rating does not insure that he will pitch well.

Francisco Rodriguez got 62 saves in real life. Just try to match that in Strat. Aborations happen in RL as well as in Strat.

Alternetivly, since this seems to be not working for you:

1. Go to the standing page for your league
2. Click on your team
3. Highlight the entire web address in your browser, should look like this:

http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/stratomatic/team/team_other.html?user_id=181749

4. with the link highlighted hit CNTRL "c" for copy

5. come to the forums, open a reply window
6. hit CNTRL "v" to paste the link

viola it works

Until you start covering the real life names on the strat cards, you will more often than not be disappointed with the results. It's about the numbers, not the names. If the name on top of Lidge's card was Luis Mendoza, chances are you wouldn't have given the card a second look.
