Wild Cards?

I've put off the season switchover for a few days, because I want to gauge the interest in a few items.

The first one involves wild cards in the playoffs. I've had a few owners ask me about the possibility of including them in for the next season. The only real setup available to us is to have the two second place teams as the wild cards. We don't have enough teams to go to three divisions.

What do you think? Discuss, cast your vote and let us know.

Thanks,

Wonder What Our League Would Look Like In OOTP9?

Wonder no more...

(Note: I advanced my test league to the next season and went through free agent signings, etc., so you may see some strange players on your team. But don't worry about it, this is only a dummy test, not our real league).

Bad League File

It looks like I didn't zip the file correctly before uploading. I'm at work right now and don't have access to the file. I'll try to do it when I get home this afternoon before the Sabbath. If not, I'll do it Sunday night. If I do it Sunday night, then Game 5 will be on Tuesday.

UPDATE: Since both Nate and Mack agree, we're going to just do the sim on Sunday night regardless of whether or not I get the new file up.

Fielding Woes Make It A Hull Of A Game For The Sternwheelers

You knew it wasn't going to be a good game for River Cities when the first two Seattle hitters reached base on errors. You knew it was going to be worse when both scored and Seattle never gave up the lead from then on.
