Also his system would consider a 700 rated team (with all c's) as a better team then a 650 rated one that has all the positions covered. And yet another EXTREME example that would never happen...again, show me where this has happened in 370+ seasons in HD, the burden of proof to prove this RIDICULOUS claim is on you, and hate to break it to you, the last thing anyone that knows anything remotely about HD would say is that 370+ seasons is a small sample size.

There have been coaches who have had players of all one position before.

PROVE IT, and while you're at it, address the rest of what I said.

Also, the fact is it is plausible that that could happen and if that were to happen it would not work at all with how you purpose to set rankings up, so to throw it out and not even consider it as a possibility is poor.

Its so extreme and improbable that bringing up a ridiculous example like that has virtually no value in this conversation and shows how really beaten you are here. If a team has 12 centers, I can adjust to that....but show me where the hell its ever happened before. Sure, in theory a 690 could go undefeated and a 780 can lose all its games, and a team could have 12 Cs but if its NEVER HAPPENED in 370+ seasons, then what the hell does it even matter? I'll answer this rhetorical question...IT DOESN'T!

Here's a team with only three post position players, one of those three being a walkon.

Again this shows your lack of HD knowledge and history. Please move on, I hate watching you make such a fool of yourself.

I believe 20+ seasons ago a coach won a title with a team full of SFs. Does WIS purge old threads? I can't seem to locate it.

There is a current team whose players all have the last name of Johnson. It's under the recent thread titled "hah." Improbable yes, but it is out there.

Ok....they have at least 1 guy at every position....zhawks is claiming guys had teams with 12 centers and you give me this....please, that's not even close to being relevant.
