That's neither praising the game, because the whole thing was fabricated in the first place, nor is it criticizing the game because what he shows has no relationship to his actual results.
So, what was the point? Never mind, I am signing out of here. Too much time wasted on this nonsense.

The point was that sometimes people complain that the game is unrealistic, so I posted these "unrealistic" real-life results to give some perspective and assurance to those who are concerned and frustrated by results in their game (and who among us hasn't been there at some point?) by showing that baseball is unpredictable and really does produce results that would be regarded as unrealistic if they were to show up in one of our games.
The point of framing it in a complaint was to give it some humor by spoofing one of those complaining posters and give a little wink to those on here who field such complaints about lack of realism on a fairly regular basis. I figured I would fool one or two people who wouldn't realize that what I posted were real-life numbers and we could have some fun with them, but I have to admit I didn't anyone to catch on right away but still not get it.
