You're quite welcome, EC. Bet you're glad I noticed that, or I'd bet that, IF I were typically a betting man, that is, which I'm not as a general rule. So you're starting off both Freemans in the same season? How are you going to portray them both in your IPA?
I still haven't decided whether they'll actually be brothers or be cousins of some yet-unknown sort in whichever leagues I might ever place them both in just yet, for sure. But I'm still leaning towards the latter being true for them both at the present time. You can portray them both as you like, when it comes to them in YOUR IPA, just so you know.
Thank you again for deciding to let them be in your IPA history and all. Looks like Truth-Seeker's really taking it to the Ruthlandian Union in jg2977's version of your IPA, as well. At this rate, he looks like he may very well be on a Hall of Fame pace so far, if I'm not too mistaken here, with a Pitcher of the Year Award already won, at least in his career. I wonder what his chances are for more awards from the 1955 season of jg2977's IPA at the present time.
Personally, though, I'm not really a fan of wildcards in baseball seasons, to be honest. Granted, we took that route to win at least one of our two titles this century. But I still don't really like the three-division setup in each league that MLB has now, of course, at all. There should be either two or four divisions per league only, with only division winners making the playoffs, and certainly no sub-500 teams at all in them. At least, that's what I think should be the case when it comes to playoffs.
IF a team can't win at least half their games, or have at least half the possible points available for them to earn, during a season, no matter how long a season turns out to be, they are not worthy enough to be in the playoffs, in any sport, I think.
Baseball, football, and basketball teams shouldn't be able to qualify for the playoffs if they don't win and/or tie at least half their games. Hockey teams shouldn't be able to qualify if they have more losses than wins, and ties should be allowed again, without the use of shootouts, after a single 20-minute overtime period ends unless a sudden-death goal is scored before the end of it, at least in the regular season.
These are just my personal thoughts about such things, and others can most certainly disagree with them if and when they like, you know, EC. Thank you for your time and attention here, then, of course. CD out.
