I'm sorry SOM!

And I thought losing five finals in a row was bad!!

My last 9 playoff teams have resulted in one championship and 8 losses in the semi-finals. The last 2 semi-final losses were Friday night with my 2012 teams...both losing in 7 games after being up 3-2. It can get frustrating but I'm sure there are many others that can post simliar pain...hopefully the luck will change at some point.

Does anyone always WIN the finals?

I play about 10 or so teams a year -- of those that have made it to the post-season (only one wild card), I've lost six of the past seven in the semi-finals

look at the one listed last, Dvoynik Doppelgangers -- 102 wins -- lost to J-Pav!

I would kill for 4 "lost Finals" at this point!!

Let's all follow along as my 9th team (again with the best record) goes to fail in the first round as always!

Team (best pitching, by far, in the league): http://onlinegames.strat-o-matic.com/team/822515

Scores: http://onlinegames.strat-o-matic.com/le ... res/267694

4 of my first 5 teams made the playoffs. The only one to win a championship or even advance to the finals was a wild card.

2011 has been good for me

17 teams = 7 championships out of 10 playoff teams

Probably just jinxed myself

Good luck to all...my prayers go out to the OK tornado victims
