Leagues should have a crappy team rule...It is amazing that the only teams players quit is ****ty teams!! I have had my share, but I enjoy the challenge....(Boston Braves PWBL) is an example of my patience as a GM...It is hilarious when I see post like this, come help my league....A crappy GM quit when his team sucked!!

Actually Rob, I think PWBL Braves are more a testament to your skill as a GM rather than your patience. Didn't take you long at all to reverse their fortunes.

I missed this post because I was without a connection at the time.

I'd be one of the exceptions to the leaving teams that are sh*tty rule. Pirates, Yankees and A's have all been in decent shape upon my departure.

I wouldn't say you've displayed much patience with losing teams either as you've turned the A's and Braves into winning squads in the first seasons you GM'ed them.

Washington Senators - SO49

While the shine is wearing off of a tremendous start, a brilliant job in making this sad sack franchise respectable in 1955 cannot go without some comment...although, I believe both previous regimes were trying their best to get the Nats on the upswing, but Mr. Tomlinson may lead them to their most successful season to date...

After resuscitating two moribund franchises in the PWBL in record time, the SO49 Nats are in capable hands.

I'd agree with this statement if the year the league was imported happened to end in a nine.
