A weeklong freefalI. 3-3 or worse every session. I will be glad to see the 2nd quarter end...all around fugly.

I currently have a 1st place team, four 2nd place teams and a 3rd place team. My best team is the one in 3rd.

Cycles where all of your losses are by 1 run are the absolute worst. Especially when you have 4+ of them

With a 1-0 lead, my B+ fielding 3B makes an error in the 9th, and then a weak-hitting lefty takes Andrew Miller deep in Petco for the walkoff 2-run homer.

I just noticed -- all my teams are in the American League.

42 wins by the All Star Break by my HR team in the $140 million league. Not setting the world on fire or anything, but since several posters said HR teams would get killed at that cap, I'll take it.

Last year, I had 4 playoff teams in round one and managed to sneak in to 24th with some crazy luck. I think at the moment it looks like I'm on track to win more regular season games, but I don't think any of my teams are going to make the playoffs. Seems like karma...

I feel like I should be checking my teams once a week or so (which I might do if it weren't for IP shortages on two teams) - the thing about checking every cycle is that often as not, it's the same opponents all day, so 4-14 probably just means I'm playing the good teams, and 13-5 just means my record was inflated by competition. I'm heading straight toward .500 like it was the 5 in Cricket; I keep telling myself it's because I'm playing brian and schwarze, even though they're not even in some of my leagues ...

I am 75-75 (.500) in one run games. This is weighted in both directions by my 100M team (22-8) and my 120M team (5-17). Hopefully my record in one run games comes up to my win% in 2+ run games 228-144 (.613), which would currently put me in 1st place.

That's now how 1-run games work... .There have been studies done that there is very little correlation between Win% in 2+ run games and Win% in 1-run games.

Well, one can hope!

Little correlation but I think some. Correlation between past and future records in 1-run games is, I think, basically zero

5-1 followed by yet another 0-6. The yo-yo season (along WIS's retarded inconsistency) continues

9-2 in one run games over the last three days. .467 win pct. (70-80) vs. .531 (207-183) for 2+ run games. The gap is closing. I'm starting to think like brianjw and schwarze. Maybe my teams will revert to the mean.

Some people really draw lucky divisional assignments. Being in third place behind the #3 and #20 ranked teams, while I'd be leading another division by 7 games that includes the #88, #89 and #90 teams is annoying :P
