Just an example as to how cool this league is:

New York Giants

1901-1903 - good team, wins 1901 World Series

1904-1907 - crap team, just horrible, 60 wins max

1908-1910 - good team, went to WS in 1910, 96 wins in 1910


Now, this change from good to bad to good again took place in 10 seasons over 9 months...

9 months....

In a normal league, this change would take place over about 3-4 years of real-time, during which an owner might become frustrated with his crap team during the lean years and pack it in. In the NABL, a crap team will be a powerhouse within 4 seasons or so, or about 3 months...

The Braves are a crapish team, but could be dominate within 3 seasons, or 9 weeks of real time....
