This theme would also be interesting at a different cap level, such as 80m or 100m

5 of my 6 teams share the same record currently (33-29)

that was a brutal day. I think it was about 3-15.

Sorry guys - was out of town. Will update tonight.

So far, all four of my poll choices are correct (with one being a tie). Still a long way to go though!

I was closing the gap between Doug and myself, but this week has been a letdown so far.

By taking the average wins by decade, it's easy to calculate the Expected Wins per owner. GuerillaZen has the highest expected wins since he is playing the top three decades (1900, 1910, 1940). So although he has 22 more wins than his partner zlionsfan, he's only 2.5 wins better. Note that ozomatli and I have the most balance in terms of decade selection.

This last chart is very interesting. Thanks for calculating it for us. I hadn't gone down that road but it's very telling.

hmm. I liked it better when I was easily exceeding expectations. (Or perhaps more accurately, when my schedules had been quite a bit more favorable from not having played some of the better decades yet.)
