    2nd Annual Sports Mogul Best Team Ever Tournament

    http://forum.sportsmogul.com/showthr...ght=tournament

    There's a link to last year's tournament. Here are the rules.

    Each person will pick one team with a record over .500 (All teams from 1885-2008 available). But there is a catch, you cannot choose a team that was in last year's tournament- that means the following teams are not available

    There will be 32 teams, and there will be ONE TEAM PER PERSON, until further notice. The seeding will be normal seeding (1 vs. 32, 2 vs. 31, etc), with the 1 seed being the team with the highest winning pct. and the 32 seed being the team with the lowest winning percentage.

    The brackets will be done by Bracketmaker.com, and the simulations will be done by Whatifsports.com's MLB SimMatchup Program.
    There will be the 7 games in each series, in each round.

    The Finals!

    1. 1932 Yankees- RickD .695
    3. 1975 Reds- rainman .667

    Also..looking back on the first tournament..each matchup was a best of seven? Why aren't we just doing that again?? One game to decide all the first round matchups? That seems like a crapshoot.

    I'll go with the 1995 Mariners though.
