I'm not sure if this qualifies or not, but I just completed an OL where one of my OFs (1914 Lou Frazier) hit .279 with a .364 obp, scored 40 runs and stole 60 bases in 66 attempts. What makes this so special? He did it in only 240 ABs and he only cost $1.0 mil.

Believe it or don't!!!
Waiver wire pickup?

I was in an OL about 5 seasons ago where I had 117 wins, yet only had the fourth best record!! Two guys were in the mid 120's and one was in the 130's. Strange feeling having that many wins, and know that you have no chance of winning. My record against them counting the playoffs was 3 and 18. it felt like there were three leagues in one. Them, me, and everybody else. Believe it or don't.

Actually he was drafted.  I always draft him when I make a speed team.
Oh, lol, I was just kidding.  I know you utilize the waiver wire frequently (with positive results, I might add)

Picture this, playing a live game - 2 of my teams against each other.  My Houston Rockets team is home in the Astrodome.  I've got Danny Darwin on the mound, and Joh McGraw hits 2 HRs off him.  So what you say?  John McGraw 1897 had 0 home runs in real life (that's right zero, zilch, nada), and he hits two in the Astrodome!  I know Darwin is a gopher ball pitcher and in 1992 he gave up 31 dingers in 230 innings HR+ (76), but that's a effed up yes?  BELIEVE IT OR DON'T

This is just a poor man's version of my legendary 'What IF' thread.

So essentially you're calling out crazystengel for being a "swacker", no?

The owner who finished first was...The Taint!

Believe It or Don't!

237 post-seasons, and only twice have I overcome a 0-3 deficit to win a playoff series.  Those comebacks occurred in back-to-back seasons of the same theme (Cheno5's Random Franchise Twist).  They occurred in the same round (the second).  And they occurred...against the same owner!

Believe It or Don't!
I knew who it was before you answered Dahs!
