To celebrate 5 years in existence I'm thinking of doing a few blog series while I have spare time in the summer. The first idea I have is FCM's 25 best teams. Here is a list of seasons, by team, that I'll consider for the list. If I'm missing one you think I should consider, please post (This is just a list of teams I'll take a look at to narrow down from):
Ari - 2024
Atl - 2042
Balt - 2027, 2040, 2042

As I mentioned to you, a sort of trials and tribulations article would be nice. A transparent look at what the league has went through with some opinions from other members would be neat. This league has had some controversy and it's impressive that we've stayed afloat.

I'm willing to do that, what comes to mind with that would be:
DJ Leaving
Sean disappearing for health reasons
Scott cheating
But I'm not sure what else there was.

I like the idea of the trials and tribulations.....for a newcomer that wasn't here for it, it'd be interesting to know some of how the league got started and some of the bumps in the road.

That would be awesome G, once I have figured out who the top 25 are I will send out PMs and ask if guys want to talk about their own teams.

Great idea!
We could also consider updating the all time FCM team. We have had some time since then. Could be a good debate to compare older players with newer players.

Going through our top 25 teams it dawned on me that we don't have team records. We have individual records on our blog but not "best team ERA" or "most homeruns"
Anyone want to tag team that or take charge of finding those record holders?
