Cliff Notes:

My teams win 107 and 104 regular season games and get knocked out of playoffs by 80-85 win teams. (links were provided)
..and...

Here's a 95 and 93 win team that were both swept in round 1.

Sounds about right, StratBrat?

Anybody remember the link? Wonder if those 100+ teams were leagues where you could have multiple teams?

Just had 2 teams flame out in the first round. But then again a lot of wild card teams go all the way in real life

Yeah but real life is about generating money by extending the playoffs. I'd rather see an option for just two divisions and Winners play World Series. Especially with ATG.

Better yet, division winners get a credit, WS champ gets an extra credit (or one if it's a wild card team). Takes a lot of the chance out of that credit.

Kind of suspicious and funny that post count is 1.
The one and only time you come to the boards is to proclaim you are sick and tired?

I'm sick and tired of losing to Petro's McCovey-Griffey-Ruth recipe, that's for sure... :?

I'm sick and tired of losing to a LH'er when I have a Hilltop team. At home, eeking out 3-5 hits...

Or visaversa, losing to a 3-5R RH'er, when I have a Dunn team.

Since this is merely a facsimile of past reality- the dice rule. I can only think of the wacky things that happen in "reality"- like the 69 Mets, and many other unlikely events in the game.

In the end, this is merely a game of chance.
