So I'm starting a contest - Which owner can fall the most games below .500 and make it back to .500?  
I sit at a -18 so far.
Im in i was -18 and back to -2 with 5 great cycles in a row.   I think i can make it!

My first schwarze of the season in the am games

Got a much-needed schwarze in the pm2 games; 12-6 on the day to creep back within distance of .500. So glad it happened during divisional play and not interleague play ... I'd take one any time but like it better when they create distance/make up ground.

so close to a schwarze in the pm2 - 3 runs in the 9th was what lost it for us

My 5-13 record in the 100 Mil league is killing me.  55 runs scored to 61 runs allowed.  Thats probably what I deserve for picking a year that normalizes poorly for hitting (1996)

all the extra innings games killed 2 of my teams already.  so depressed over my silver king team, which i thought was the 2nd best of my teams.  i drafted 1500+ innings and my pitching staff is dead after several long extra inning games to start the season.  one went 18 innings.  i was almost back to a manageable fatigue level when wham, we go extra innings again last night.  in 9 years of playing, and thousands of teams entered, i may finally have my "venting session" with the WISers regarding the fatigue bullshit.  i really liked my chances of getting to round 2, now i feel scammed by the system.  but we all are using the same system so it's obviously fair.  just soooooo disappointed.  good luck all!!!

I'm in your 110M league gigrant.  You are 1.5 innings above the league average in innings pitched (ranked 9th in most innigs thrown)   1500 innings isn't really 1500 when 100 of Silver's innings likely won't be used.  So you are really at 1400, which is on the low end of a 110M DH league.  Your offense is 2nd-to-last in runs scored, which has nothing to do with fatigue or extra inning games.  You drafted a starting lineup of low-average HR-hitters, which is the opposite of what typically plays well against Silver King.  If you haven't done so yet, you should read the team selection comments, especially from those who have had lots of success in this tournament.
