Hi Guys,

Thanks for the congrats.

I've posted the NLD History excel file here: http://www.angelfire.com/games5/joethejet/NLD_History.xls (you may have to copy and paste to get the file)

Some notes:

Silver continues to lead the way in terms of Winning Pct and PO appearances (17 total, 77% )

We tied Silver and AT for Titles (3) with our win. It was the second time someone has gone back-to-back. AT also did it in NLD's 16-17.

Silver has the longest current PO streak with 4. In the past 7 leagues, no one but Sivler has ever made teh POs more than twice in a row. Smokee did have a streak of 3 if you go back 8 NLDs.

Stoney made his first PO appearance and now everyone in the league has been there at least once. In fact, if you look at the past 3 seasons (where we've had very little turnover) everyone has made it at least once with 4 being the most (WM, Silver, AT). Five different managers have won Champs. Six different Managers have the best record with AT and Big M putting up 2 bests.

Also interesting to note how close everyone is to .500 over the past 7 leagues.

Big M has moved into a tie for sixth most NLD seasons (13) with Hawk and Jeep just one back with 12, moving past Shrink. Big A moves past Kire with 9.

The team with the second best record now has 8 of 22 NLD titles. The best record has won six, but only 1 of the past 10.

As we suspected, this past NLD was the most lopsided ever with only 4 teams > .500. The lowest ever.

All for now. Feel free to post any observations you may have.

heh, we're not looking to dominate, just hoping that the dice gods remain on our side for another NLD! I always say I'd rather be lucky than good!

Someone might want to ping Big M. I can't do it from work any more. I meant to do it last night, but went to a friend's house to watch Zito throw 8.1 shutout innings last night. :shock:

I'm not sure everyone knows we've started again. Are we sure that everyone's back in for this round?

Jet

News must travel pretty slowly across the pond.

Biggie doesn't check in much. You pretty much have to ping him to get him to go to the forums.

Could try league email too. He might have other teams he's checking in on.

Jet

Hi guys. I'm here.

$100m?

yep 100 million

Jeeper, you can pick! No clock of course, just didn't know if you had checked in.

BTW VOTE FOR PABLO! (Sorry Stoney)
