SIM COMPLETE - 1984 - Regular Season 29

[Andrew]

Next sim: Sunday

ALL teams must reduce their active roster to 25 men before the next sim. Also, please clear your DFA. The next sim will cover the 1st round of the playoffs.

Pretty interesting finish to the season. Sin City swept Hyundai and pulled even in the division but ended up losing in a 1 game playoff. Windy City and Davenport got screwed a little bit because the game made them play a 1 game playoff even though both had already clinched their postseason spot.

[Pat]

Oh thank god.

[Lintyfresh85]

3-4 sim...

5 months at .500 or better. I can take that!

72 wins is also the most I have ever had as the California owner... andddd... I'll pick 6th this year the lowest I've picked in my three drafts.

Not exactly looking up, but some things to be happy about.

[Guest]

6-0 sim, that's more like it.

[Delandis]

What a disappointing end to the season.

[Spectre]

Wow, pulled out the #1 overall pick in a photo finish

Pretty depressing

[rubisco43]

wow... i barely limped into the playoffs... early 1st round knock out in my future.

[Clay]

Disappointing last two weeks to the season... but... to be fair.... we did a lot of experimenting with the kids.

1984 is in the books... and a couple Colonials set NEW TEAM RECORDS....

Wasn't that necessary to determine who won the division and who got the WC???? That's how baseball would have done it.

Let me reiterate how thankful I am for a Wild Card. Without it, I would have missed the playoffs with the 2nd best record in BLB.

[Pat]

Any reason why the sim doesn't announce the playoffs? What day (in game) will be the first game of the post-season?

DL
Maine vs. Hyundai (Maine 9-3)
Dallas vs. Pittsburgh (Pitt 7-5)

IL
Philadelphia vs. Windy City (Philly 8-4)
Davenport vs. Washington (Davenport 7-5)

(season series)

No baseball would have broken the tie based on their season matchup. This happened to the Red Sox and Yankees in 2005: http://www.baseball-reference.com/leagues/AL_2005.shtml

It wont let me advance a day until rosters are down to 25. I think we have 1 off day, not counting the current day so playoffs should start the 4th.

[Plastic]

We almost won 80 games this season... Never thought we would get close to that before the season started. An amazing inaugural season for the Morgantown Mowhawks.

[BradleyB]

I could complain about losing that 1 game playoff, but the fact of the matter is I should have taken more than 2 out of 4 from the Clowns. Oh well, time to blow this thing up.... everyone's on the block!!!
