pstrickert, yes, you're correct, I'm using single-season replay mode. So what you're saying is that the real-life records of these teams weren't really indicative of their talent level. I guess I can buy that, though in the case of the White Sox, I think their true talent level was WORSE than their real-life record of 77-77, not BETTER. After all, they were only two years away from the massive roster purge which followed the Black Sox scandal, and the next year, 1923, they lost 85 games ... so were they really better than a 77-win team in 1922? I'm skeptical. But I'll live with it. It's not like the 1922 season is super-important to me; I'm hoping to get into a league that replays all the 1920s seasons, and testing one of the early seasons in the decade was my starting point. Anyway, thanks for your input!
