I've been occasionally monitoring my wins total ... and this morning I found out that I had reached 20 000 exactly.

I'm not mentioning this to toot my own horn - especially since (a) 20 000 losses is not too far behind :wink: and (b) so many other owners have reached and surpassed 20 000 ... I am sure there are some who breathlessly await the first 100 000 win owner (whom I thought might originally be penngray). :wink:

Rather it is just that when I first started I never expected to reach 5000 wins let alone 20 000. The game had already been out 7-8 months before I started playing it steadily and I never figured I'd get in the ballpark, let allow catch any of those who'd already started.

Alas here I am almost 4 years later with 20 000 wins ... I wonder if I can reach 50 000 before 2010. :D :shock:

Congrats on the milestone. I just hope I'm still alive in the amount of time it would take me to reach that total.

Good Job!!!!

I probably started about the same time as you(7 2001 teams) and I have almost 16,000 wins(15,877) along with 14,156 losses.

Tony LaRussa has nothing on you. Congrats and thanks for your passion for this great game.
