Question: Do the first place teams ever win the playoffs?

From your keyboard to ABE's ears. I hope you are right. Can't take too much more heart break.

Does anyone, anyone at all, really believe this league is on the level?

Clearly it is just never a good idea to finish with the best record in this league.

Sidenote...I know the MVP race is pretty silly, but still pretty rare to see a 39 y/o with bad health get the MVP (Campfield). He was a little better last season and couldn't get to the AS team.

No, this league, like most others on this site... Is a joke.

It's a bummer, they really had a great thing going, but (IMO) the lack of anti-tanking rules kind of killed it. There just aren't that many active players anymore, so you end up with these leagues with one guy managing a quarter of the league and another quarter of the teams simply abandoned.

I signed up for this league as I'd played in it ages ago, and just kind of presumed there would be new owners taking over the dead teams, but pretty clear that that's not going to happen.

Maybe get a merger going? Otherwise I think this league is dead.

It's a shame because this should be fun, but between abandoned teams, bots, tanking, and blatant favoritism all the fun has been taken out of it. There are still good leagues on this site, this just isn't one of them. A merger or contraction would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath.

This league is is an absolute joke. With blatant favoritism and ridiculous numbers of injuries just the two worst features. I hate to quit and abandon my team before my subscription is up, but this is getting so absurd it's disgusting. Good luck to all.
