100 Win Curse? Is it real? Post your numbers ...

Update

For simplicity sake, I limited it to ATG 8 ...

(15) 100+ Win Teams
(3) Rings (20.0% won a ring)
(3) Finals Losses (40.0% made to finals)
(9) Semi-Finals Losses (60.0% lost in semis)


Please share yours

49 100 win+ teams
18 Rings

245 playoff teams with less than 100 wins
77 Rings from them

100 win team championship rate: 36.7%
sub-100 win playoff team championship rate: 31.4%

I am immune to the curse!

And from real life

Since 2000, 17 teams have won at least 100 games in the regular season.

World Series winners - 2018 Red Sox, 2016 Cubs, 2009 Yankees

World Series losers - 2017 Dodgers, 2004 Cardinals, 2003 Yankees

LCS losers - 2005 Cardinals, 2004 Yankees, 2001 Mariners

DS losers - 2017 Indians, 2015 Cardinals, 2011 Phillies, 2008 Angels, 2003 Braves, 2002 Braves, 2002 Yankees, 2002 A's

Seems like I'm actually replicating real life.

I'm CURSED!

(5) 100+ Win Teams (there is the first curse right there, only 5 out of....a whole lot!)
(1) Ring (20% won a ring)
(0) Finals Losses (20% made to finals)
(4) Semi-Finals Losses (80% lost the semis)

Got to add to my misery last night and the curse with my 111 win team losing in semis 3 games to 1 to a 86 win team that didnt even belong in the playoffs

Ouch, that is harsh Lou.

These are my 100 win teams in all formats:

(29) 100+ Win Teams
(6) Rings (20.7% won a ring)
(9) Finals Losses (51.7% made to finals)
(14) Semi-Finals Losses (48.3% lost in semis)

So my 100 win teams have done an OK job of making the finals (just over 50%), but have not done so well, overall, at winning rings.

Here's an example where a division winner with a sub .500 record (78 wins) rolled past the two teams with the best records to win a league title ...
