Thanks for the kind words earlier CJ :) and I was going to say before reading Punisher nabbed a title that I could see him picking up one of those two teams because at this point that's a lot of teams and effort/chances to never have one.

He would be deserving any way he got it. I mean at some point ya gotta get one! :)





Just out of curiousity, I had to check how many teams punisher actual has and its currently 63. While that number is astounding, the truly amazing number is the amount of total seasons he has owned those teams. I count 519 completed seasons for active teams he owns. Approximately 35% of his teams have been owned around 15 full seasons. Thats 519 years worth of running a francise with an incredible 1 league championship in 5 league championships appearances. That is a sucess rate of 0.19%.

To put it another way, there have been 53 Superbowls in the NFL and punisher has had a chance to reach the in game equivalent nearly 10× that amount. Even more if you add in now defunct leagues which cant be added to the equation.

To put those numbers in prosceptive, the odds of winning a league championship in any season are 1 in 32 or 3.125%. In statistical analysis, the larger the sample size, the closer the results should deviate to the mean. This means he should have won at least 16 league championships for the number of seasons he has competed for a title.

Punisher seems to be more STAFF than an active competitive player. He does provide some useful announcements such as when sims are stuck because honestly even with 19 teams now if any one wants a free win over me just pray the sim gets stuck because I'll miss it as I'm knocking down the 'Midweek' visuals (Midweek means new game has spun when you see it) I can do without the League Matchmaker posts and of course calling out GMs for their salary cap wizardry. lol

In the game/on the field, man he almost has to be the wrestling equivalent of an enhancement talent/jobber whose role is to put over others.

I say this because for the longest time he'd run go nowhere 5 WR Long Pass strats over and over + punt from like anywhere on the field.

It couldn't have been a legitimate strategy to win....

Well, I was looking forward to the challenge of figuring out a way past CJ in the Shadow League (https://shadow.myfootballnow.com/) in order to win my 2nd league title, but after jumping out to a big first half lead, he was inexplicably shutout the 2nd half and eliminated from the playoffs in the Conference Championship. Tough loss, man.

My League Championship game is in 28 hours against Farmerbow's Bills Mafia....

196/148 PF vs. PA against for Farmer Bow's team in that game. Come on...

That game encapsulates my feelings. I believe they've nearly put it out of our control (winning and losing) we're all scrambling to figure out the last vestiges of an edge as they churn their cauldron within the Beta Cave while looking to take away each thing we figure out

smh

Bryson going for his 9th title in a row in MFN-28 after rubbing in someone else not making it to the title game. Hmm, I wonder why anyone bothers competing in a league with him.

Ive dropped just about all my MFN-# leagues, most of them arent run by anyone and for the most part broken between the haves and the have nots. Being able to pick up 5th year players rated 90+ on the waiver wire is ridiculous.

Agreed and good point. I'm down to 8 of them myself, which is a far cry from where I was at.

I'm probably trending to ridding myself from all of them, as well.
