With one of my teams, I have essentially the same team as I did a season ago, and have gone from a 101-win team to maybe a 65-70 win team. I haven't tanked it. The power update did a number on my team, and a lot of my pitchers are having off-seasons.

I think you'd have to provide additional information to justify your reasoning of why you believe it's a tanker, before any reasonable conclusion could be made. It could just be the instance of where a team is just simply having a bad year.

EDIT: I see you've provided some additional information. However, all I would do is ask him for an explanation, before accusing him of being a "tanker."

Therefore, there is no rule against tanking.

There is also no rule against taking a step back in order to take two steps forward. In fact, it can be a winning strategy. (That is why some people are against it -- it can be a strategy that will knock them off their thrones).

Once people realize all these things they can save a lot of brain damage arguing things that don't exist.

Really? Film at 11?

I generally find out where they live. First I threaten their family. If that doesn't work, I kill a pet and shove it in their mailbox. I haven't had to move on to step three yet.

Is that why I got a picture of my dog with a gun to his head that read "remove tryout camp pitcher from team or the dog gets it"?

Your family wasn't home. I had to improvise.
