Record last week: 101-61 in gold
Record this week: 27-56 in diamond
Runs scored per game last week: 5.6 in gold
Runs scored per game this week: 3.9 in diamond
The players on my team are the same, but the other teams in the league don't look anything like mine. Were they handing out 100 Speaker cards to everybody and somehow I missed it?
Fortunately, it appears certain that we will be relegated back to where we belong. Right now, we have the second-worst record and are 10 games below the relegation line. Sorry to all of the people that have been fattening their PP larder on my boys. You will have to find another patsy next week.

This makes me feel very conflicted about my upcoming Gold Level Playoffs. I was prepared to be abysmal, as my last foray saw me going 49-113. However, I did have 6 straight playoff appearances in Silver League since then, including a championship last year that saw me promoted. 4 of those being wildcards and a bit of bad luck can see you stuck at a level for a while. However, I outperformed expectations with 93 wins and a home wild card game coming up. However, a deep run could leave me being that pasty next year. They should have fun against my lineup with no perfects, 3 golds in the bullpen, 3 in the lineup, and two more on the bench.
