I had put creating this league off for years as I wasn't sure it would be accepted by the GST Ranks. When I lowered RallyPro out of PremiumPro status, it left a perfect opening for this league. I had no idea if it would be accepted or not.

2013 -- It seems that this league filled the very League Concept that some GMs felt were missing in GST. It is truly a "Basic" league. However, being a PremiumPro league, with the resulting Tournament of Champions implications, it is a very "Real" league. It is also the "cheapest" league with TOC implications.
Regular Season Finish: 1. Glassbreakers (Commish) 2. Score Lords 3. Moon Pro 4. Shang Hai Grand 5. DC Cubs 6. Masters 7. Mariner Madness 8. Big Stick 9. Let the Boy Watch 10. Baller 32 11. Sunshine Boys 12. Hoosier Daddy 13. Drunk Cubs Fan 14. Rain Down Pain
Championship Playoff Finish: 1. Score Lords 2. DC Cubs 3. Glassbreakers 4. Masters 5. Big Stick 6. Mariner Madness 7. Moon Pro 8. Shang Hai Grand
I feel this is the best team I had ever drafted. At one point I was dominating the league. I had never won a GST Regular Season Championship before. It was heady. I couldn't keep up the pace though and the league caught back up to me. I BARELY squeaked ahead of Score Lords in the end. I was NO MATCH for Score Lords in the Playoffs as he won a Hard Fought Battle with DC Cubs in the Finals. Score Lords, always Highly Successful in GST, expanded his role greatly this year and enjoyed his Finest Year Ever in GST, coming close to DOMINATING GST as a whole!

2014 -- What a difference a year makes! The league expanded to 16 teams and had LOTS of new faces. Lots of Up-and-Coming faces!
Regular Season Finish: 1. Moon Pro 2. Go Tribe 3. Braves 2014 4. Hoosier Daddy 5. Walls of Fenway 6. Score Lords 7. Rain Down Pain 8. The Champ is Back 9. Baller 32 10. DC Cubs 11. Long Island Firedogs 12. Glassbreakers (Commish) 13. Shady LTD 14. Big Stick 15. Strong Island 16. Masters
Championship Playoff Finish: 1. Walls of Fenway 2. Go Tribe 3. Moon Pro 4. Braves 2014 5. Score Lords 6. The Champ is Back 7. Hoosier Daddy 8. Rain Down Pain
This year Moon Pro DID dominate, as he was to go on to his Best Year Ever in GST! Alas, it was the Young Guns in the End -- with Walls of Fenway beating out Go Tribe easily. He had had a virtual tie in the 1st Round with Hoosier Daddy, but after that he simply ROLLED to the Championship! Up and Comer if I ever saw one! It'll be interesting watching him perform in the Tournament of Champions next season!

I'm not sure just what happened. Amidst my Worst Season Ever, in THIS league, after lagging like the rest of my teams at the bottom of the league, my team started winning. Not Big Wins, but steady. Before I knew it, I was in the midst of the Playoffs. The Winning didn't stop either. Not saying it was Easy -- It WASN'T!! Just Squeaked through the 2nd Round, and the Finals was a Last Day, Nail Biting Tie. Don't say the Last Week of the Regular Season isn't important -- after having my Butt Handed to Me in Week 4 by Baller 32: 2 - 7, in Week 21 we played again and I won 8-2. That my friends was THE Difference between winning a Championship and Not Winning a Championship!!
