NLD 39 - Yep, still going strong

Ouch1 Now it shows only 5 picks have been made ...

Draft looks fine to me with you having the first pick in round 2

Seems okay now ...

Stratdraft shows ninersphan picking Tulo, but the email message says Rendon. Haven't seen this happen - which is it?

Looks like it's Tulo to me.

MG you're up.

Fellas, the clock will kick in on Monday morning.

Also, check in her for the NLD History. I have it ready to go, just have to upload the file.

Ok, NLD History is posted here: http://www.angelfire.com/games5/joethej ... istory.xls (you will probably have to copy and paste that URL)

Congrats to Big A in winning his second championship and two of the past three.

Notes
- Big A, after making the plaoyffs only 3 rimes in 22 seasons has won two of the past three
- Semper had also overcome a similar stretch to win 2 of the past 4
- Between Semper, Big A and GB the league has gotten pretty boring. They have won 7 of the past 8 with only Corky breaking it up.
- By comparison the prior 8 seasons featured six different winners.
- MG continued the stretch of “rookies” making the playoffs with his appearance. 50% of the rookies since DT and zim joined in 2010 have made the playoffs
- The aforementioned duo replaced NP who, after participating in the first 25 is back for a one and done appearance.
- NP’s appearance will put him one ahead of Jeep.
- Stoney’s streak of four straight playoff appearances and three straight best records was snapped in nld 38.
- OTOH Smoke returned to the playoffs for the first time since he returned to the NLD.
- The best record hasn’t won since NLD 34 (Corky)
- Big A’s win was only the 7th championship for the 4th best record. First and second records are tied with 11 for the most. Third best has 9.
- GB was the only playoff team to repeat last time around. He’s made the playoffs 5 in his 8 years. If he had enough seasons to qualify he’d have the second best percentage. (The cutoff is 9 seasons, equivalent to three complete years)
- In terms of standard deviation and high and low records, it was a pretty average season although 90 wins is one of the lower high records.



Also, CONGRATULATIONS to former NLD player keyzick, champion of the 2014 Players' Championship!

I love 'boring' ...

Nice to see some things in the NLD haven't changed.

Joe, I can't get the link to work, either by a copy/paste or clicking on it. Any other suggestions? Could just be an old-age issue.
