I mean JV never had a chance, but make it a series Dick.
Nothing I can do. Buffalo sucks.

Going to be interesting to see if my winning starts a trend of teams resting their players the last 2-3 weeks of the year. Once I had the playoff spot locked in, I started to go easy on my hitters/pitchers. I think it really helped.
I actually did in some ways pattern my team after the Giants. I got lucky someone like Sutton turned into a ridiculous set up guy, Franco was healthy in my bullpen, etc. but I figured out 2-3 seasons ago I wasn't going to have the firepower to beat you, OU or other teams like Istanbul or Buffalo outslugging them. Had to try and keep scores low and hope my defense was good enough.First place in the record books, seventh place in our hearts.
For reals, congrats doh. First year expanding the playoff and you win it all. Doing it just like your Giants.
