3 straight sweeps is awfully impressive. YOur boys must have really wanted this one bad and you really deserved it. You have rocked this league the last decade and I am looking forward to the competition. Thats 1-1 for you vs me.

It has been a great run... I took the rebuild route and do not regret it, I don't think I could have slugged it out with you. WSH is on the come though...

A:how long you can keep this going or
B:how quick you can turn it over and be back on top.
This league has seen 3 long term playoff quality built teams... yours, SD and mine. I have turned mine over into a winning team but I trenched it out deeper than SD who only slipped for a short stretch... YOUR TURN!!!! Don't strike gold and bolt... show us how good an owner you are!!!

Fruno.. it's been a great run for you, 5 of 6 is epic. I actually would challenge you to stay and see either...A:how long you can keep this going or

It's been quite a ride. My team has lost a bit punch in the offseason, so we'll see how long I can keep it up. I'll take it season to season and we'll see what happens :)

Wow thanks for disregarding my team Ruggs, I guess making the playoffs 9 straight seasons and going on the 10th is not a quality playoff team. Its not Philly's fault that we have our dynasty run at the same time as Houston's. I can seriously say if it was not for Houston we probably would have had a few Championships and been to the championship game at least 5 times during the 9 seasons.
However Houston was in the same conference as Philly. It was a great run by Houston for sure but I hate that owners do this all the time. They build a dynasty team for a decade or so then when the team gets old they decide to leave because it might hurt their overall record and do not want to be at the bottom of the league for a rebuild.

** these numbers will change shortly as we go into a small rebuilding mode so they look better now than they will in 5 years.

Not sure about disregarding the Phillie team because they do have 7 = 100 loss seasons in our 32 year old league. but you did forget to mention a Cleveland team that is 5th in most wins, only has 1 -100 loss season (only 6 losing season total), and has made the playoffs in 21 of the 32 seasons of the league. It also has the 4th most World Series appearances with 6. Not saying it can be considered a great team because it can't finish enough, but should be mentioned as at least a good winning franchise.** these numbers will change shortly as we go into a small rebuilding mode so they look better now than they will in 5 years.

I was on the receiving end of an owner leaving a washed out team, taking over Houston with no talent at all. Hence the rough first seasons. But you know what? I have more WS rings than 100 loss seasons.
Are you referring to me? Gosh, did you even look at my roster? There is some good young talent on the roster, despite having 18 consecutive playoff appearances (and hence only playoff picks). This team should be in the playoff hunt for the next 10 years, even though there are some chinks in the armor (hence the rough start to this season). Your team, on the other hand, is getting old. It has some good years left, but I can see exactly two good players under OS28 (Miller and Smith).
Now, let's see about [url=http://www.simdynasty.com/ownerteam.jsp?teamid=78846]you[/url]. There are two leagues that you left with another owner succeeding you.
Toronto in the Manny Ramirez league. You leave, Team enters a stretch of 6 100 loss seasons.
Washington in the Dustin Pedroia league, Team enters a stretch of 5 seasons with 65 wins or less.
I hate that owners do this all the time.

Since our steroids fan likes to post private communication, here's one nugget for your amusement. He sent this message 5 days ago.While I am making the playoffs again this year it is a real shame your team will miss it, NOT !!
We all know it is not your skill level that got those championships, it is ABE favoritism. BITE ME.

Seems not only will you be in the playoffs... you also have pulled within 2 games of him. Looks like its gonna be another HOU/PHI LDS matchup.

But then, I caught the injury bug recently.

Playoffs clinched. 3-game series at home vs SD coming up. If I win out, I might even catch 1st place :)But then, I caught the injury bug recently.

I bet you win your division and SD knocks PHI out before he can even get a shot a complaining about you. It will be all about how ABE screwed him against an inferior SD team.
Amazing that PHI probably won't even win 100 games yet complaint about being denied a title again.
Can't wait for "The Steroids Strike Back XII"...

Nope you suck and your team will surely find a way not to make the playoffs.I bet you win your division and SD knocks PHI out before he can even get a shot a complaining about you. It will be all about how ABE screwed him against an inferior SD team.

I simply post in another thread my players achievements over a 10 year span and some of their records they hold and even state that we have had no success in the playoffs in that post and our GRACIOUS WINNER Frunobulax jumps in and throws it in my face yet again "and once again you are eliminated from the playoffs" then goes on to shoots his mouth off about how I change my pitcher settings from regular season to playoffs which I DON'T. And continues to rant that I should not pull my pitchers early even though the pitcher in question has a bad record against his team and let in 3 runs ,6 hits and 2 walks in 1.1 inning. Yeah like I would leave him in. NOW WAS ALL OF THAT CALLED FOR WHEN I JUST POSTED SOME ACHIEVEMENTS FOR MY PLAYERS. That shows some real class for sure. Too bad you can't be a humble winner or a classy one plus that was at Christmas time to boot. Yeah YOU ARE A REAL WINNER FRUNOBULAX. If that is how winners act I would rather not be one, thanks but no thanks.

SMH... grow up PHI!!! Seriously I hope you beat him so you can finally be accepted to SamTomFranklinU, and finish you major in Qwitcherbitchin 101.

Do you want to really go there on class? Should I post your profanity laced u2u to me that you sent me right around that blessed Christmas time? The one you sent unprovoked, simply because you thought I "disregarded" you? This whole feud DID NOT START with you posting your players "accomplishments", it started because you got your feelings hurt and then stepped on your Johnson.SMH... grow up PHI!!! Seriously I hope you beat him so you can finally be accepted to SamTomFranklinU, and finish you major in Qwitcherbitchin 101.

Didn't you pull a pair of C- control scrubs off the waiver wire and put them into your starting rotation and leave them there for multiple seasons? You call that class?
