I haven't sat down to figure out where the sim manager is weak, but it is. I'm probably a dozen games a year better than the default settings, and I ain't no coachin' gene-I-yoos.

On the other hand, I was stuck in a distant second, playing about .575 ball with the 1922 Washington Senators (not too shabby), so with two months to go, I let the computer take over. By the end of the year, I was down to one win over .500, which was the owner's target, and I moved up about eight spots in the draft order. Sometimes it's good to have Don eZimmer running your team.
