And the penalty for vanity is . . .
So, in my solo league I finally succumbed to the urge and created a player named after myself, who is fairly well above average. (Who creates a sucky version of themselves?)
So, he goes through an excellent season, batting above .350, and we make the Series.
What is the price of my vanity? Game 2 of the Series, he gets injured, out for exactly 1 week. He's on the sidelines when we win the title.
