thank Tosh....at least that takes the villain HAL out of the equation

for people that think I am only "noticing the bad luck" and not the good, that's completely untrue....this is from my spreadsheet tracking all leagues, performance, and data from them....... for example

in 30 leagues, I had “exactly the same” (no difference) real W-L compared expected W-L in only 4 of them….showing no luck, good or bad

in the other 27 leagues, I had “better” real W-L compared expected results (showing good luck) in only 10 of them (roughly 1/3), however, none of those greatly influenced league outcome…..only 3 of those 9 teams won titles, and those 3 leagues real life win total only exceeded expected win totals, by (2, 5, and 2 games)….while the other 6 leagues I won the titles fighting uphill

in 17 of those 27 leagues (almost 2/3), I had “WORSE” real W-L compared expected results (showing BAD luck) in only 10 of them, however, none of those greatly influenced league outcome

thus, in the 27 leagues I’ve had with some difference of expected and actual W-L record, I’ve had better luck in only 1/3 of them, while experiencing bad luck in 2/3 of them, or EXPERIENCING BAD LUCK DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF GOOD LUCK

that cumulative experience shows the bad luck empirically, not from one season or league only

There's only one spot, you better go get it Fred! There's a chick in the league. Quit yammering here and go get it!

Ahoy,

I would offer perhaps it is the subversive coders of the system with a well-placed IF, ELSE, OTHERWISE line of code.
