lol
I am the owner of the above-mentioned team....
Feel free to check it out -
Unionville Canadians of the
GMC .
Why is this team so good? Take a look at the players. Of the 1994 squad, about 10 future HOFers.... team was built up via solid trading... take a look at the history of the team - find me one (1) trade where I didnt come out a hell of a lot ahead of the other guy (FYI - i keep a trade chart which lists all team weaknesses and possiblities for trade) .... good drafting ... and modifying my stadium to suit my team...
pre-1988, the team was heavy pitching, with a pitching park
1989, team went to a hitter's park and every year it moved more and more to a LHB dream....
Team makes a ton of money because its been around for 11 seasons and wins all the time - loyalty and fan interest are very, very high...
The problem with this team, and every other team I GM, is that it/I is/am, Cursed. All told, in EBL, NABL, GMC, FBL and any of the other leagues I have been in, my teams have made the playoffs about 50 times as one of the top 3 or 4 seeds - mostly 1 or 2, and choked miserably 46 of those 50 or so times.... I put my record of futility against any other owner anywhere....

But he certainly didn't sound like a commish I would want to play under.

heh - yeah, I would hate to play in a league with a commish who has a wildly grotesque Curse hanging over his damn head, genuinely cares about his team and his league, and wants both to do well.... what a horrible commish i am...
lol
FYI - I also commish the
EBL - team is Vancouver, and the
NABL - Chicago White Sox. Former has established a nice pattern of losing, while the latter relies on the singular talents of Christy Mathewson to win....
