Also does it really count if neither team will have fans at the ballpark during the series?  Just kidding. 

By the way, who did the Rays get through in the AL to make the WS?

Now, FS, don't be such a tease:  you have shown us the AL standings, how about the Senior Circuit standings?

So are you still playing out all of your games?

I certainly am! As you can see, we had to really bite and claw our way to our wins this year in the post-season; no 4-0 floats for us! Though I respect everyone's preference, personally there is nothing like playing each and every game, seeing your players in action and getting to "know" them, in an odd, bizarre sort of way.

Thanks for sharing.

What good is a tease if you don't eventually deliver? See below:

Taz,

I completely understand. It's not always possible to make one association and run that one to the ground. Not counting those on PAUSE, I'm currently running 3 associations- the one you've seen here is my Marlins dynasty started in 2006. I play this one on my work PC.

I also recently started a 2006 association as the KC Royals- they had a horrible record that year and I wanted to challenge myself by seeing if I can make them into serious contenders. Reaching the post-season or the World Series as the Yankees or Red Sox is one thing, doing it as an underpowered, talent-challenged and under-financed club is something completely different. I run that association on my home desktop.

The third active association runs on my laptop; it's one of my two fictional associations (the other one is on hold pending Shaun aid on repairing a problem). This one started in 98 and is currently about 50 games into the 2005 season.

The reason I'm running so many is so that when I do have time, whether it's out and about (laptop) at home (desktop) or at work (work PC), I can get into the game. I do still play all of these associations game-by-game. It takes a while to do of course, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

It seems to be a very balanced and competitive National League.  (Well with the exception of the Central).
