what a comeback!! Texas won the last 4 games in a row to win their division! 7 wins and 3 losses, including a positive series against Indiana (2-1)

Now, looking that I will play against indiana in the first round of the playoffs I dont like at all my last week ... Im scared  :-X

Indiana finished with a 4 game losing streak.

Good luck in the WC round. 

Indiana is ready for the sim.

Too close for comfort... big battle to get the 2nd seed, rather than 4th seed.

I agree! Ill do better next year.

In true Philadelphia 76ers fashion, the Idaho Steelheads dropped their last five of the regular season, presumably to improve their draft position.

FYI to everyone, I am travelling the next two weeks, but the next 5 or 6 days are family vacation and I won't be on line much. I apologize if this slows the draft down, I will do my best to make my picks in a timely manner. THe following week is a business trip, so I will be around most of the time.

Hey guys! Busy morning so far.

We'll do games 1 and 2 in the first sim. We'll break a sim when we get to an off-day (off-days on travel days).

We'll start simming soon. Playoffs coming up!

Olympia won the AAA title!  We actually have something to be happy about this year.  I wasn't expecting that at all.

Now the bad news... we choked down the stretch going 1-9.  Four of those losses were of the 1-run variety.  Perhaps most disappointing was dropping below a .350 win percentage by losing our final 6 games.  We only needed two more wins to stay there.  Alvin Kane and Elvis Lowe both finished strong, and prospect Dax Rutherford had a nice week as well.
