    Bah. Your underlying argument is fine, HGM, but since when do fans need a reason to get their hopes up?
    Retired Dynasties I'm Proud of
    To Rule in Kansas City Part I and Part II (Kansas City Royals 1969-73, Hall of Fame)
    Cardinal Sins (St. Louis Cardinals 1976-78) and it's sequel:
    Diverting Destiny (Montreal Expos 1994)
    Script for my Requiem (New Orleans Blues (fictional) 1954)

    Yes, they do, and such teams usual experience an uptick shortly after. See the Cleveland Indians who went 78-84 in 2006, despite outscoring their opponents by nearly 100 runs. 2007 came along, and they won 96 games.

    Believe it or not, but I have a hard time imagining a "300lb karate expert" playing Baseball Mogul and not out doing, you know, karate.
