schwarze (or anyone else who knows)...has an owner ever advanced without having any teams make the playoffs in Round 1?
In last year's tournament, the highest finish by an owner with zero playoff teams was 64th place (shysters). He actually finished with a .502 winning percentage. His teams won 73, 90, 79, 80, 88 and 78 games. Of the 24 teams that advanced to round 2, only three had as few as two playoff teams.
In 2008, there were only 72 participants. The highest finish by a team with zero playoff appearances was 50th (thebubbaq). He had a .488 winning percentage.
