Reminds me of when I first started playing strat in the early 70s. My friends and I would either camp out and stay up all night playing strat or we'd sleep over someone's house and stay up all night playing strat. Sometimes for a few days in a row during summer. We didn't keep any stats other then keeping track of wins for your favorite pitcher or homers for your favorite hitter. I can't fathom even 10 concurrent teams in TSN SOM, let alone 20 or 30! Yet, I remember playing through many 'seasons' with my pals when we were 11, 12, 13, 14 in just a couple weeks. Our favorite theme was one that Moose is starting now - combine two teams with a serpentine 2 round draft. My favorite combination was the 75 cubs and the 75 pirates. I played that particular combination three times and won 90 to 100 games each time.
