This is the history of this league provided by year.
This league was made for Beginners, not Commissioners (two). Each Commissioner is locked for 1/2 the year -- but if either make the Playoffs, they will compete to their fullest.
I went into this knowing THIS league would experience the highest turnover.

Regular Season Finish: 1. Baseball Bum 2. Hit for (Re)Cycle(d) 3. Better Than Advertized 4. Curved Balls 5. Los Doyers 6. Doc's Holiday 7. Howie Feltersnatch 8. Name that Molina 9. Vaginal Infections 10. I Piss Excellence 11. NYY 12. Stinky Pujols 13. Diamond Kings 14. Glassbreakers 15. This Team Sucks 16. Wyld Stallions
Championship Playoffs Finish: 1. Doc's Holiday 2. Baseball Bum 3. Curved Balls 4. Howie Feltersnatch 5. Hit for (Re)Cycle(d) 6. Name that Molina 7. Los Doyers 8. Better than Advertized
This group tested my Commissioner skills! There were a couple I got close to though because of it. Baseball DOMINATED the season, I'm SURE he was quite disappointed in not winning it all. This year you had to win both to win anything. Doc's Holiday was just too much for everybody in the Playoffs.

Regular Season Finish: 1. Timdog 2. Glassbreakers (Commish) 3. 2004 4. It's Hamiltime 5. Cleanup Crew 6. RedSox4Life 7. Haight Ashbury 8. The Replacements 9. Doc's Holdiday 10. Baseball Bum 11. Name that Molina 12. Braves 369 13. I Piss Excellence 14. Terre Haute Phillies 15. Truth Rising (Co-Commish) 16. Hanging Slurve
Championship Playoff Finish: 1. 2004 2. Timdog 3. Cleanup Crew 4. Glassbreakers 5. The Replacement 6. Haight Ashbury 7. RedSox4Life 8. It's Hamiltime
Another test of my Commissioner Skills, NYY went OFF, and had to be replaced, as did another team. Those replacement GMs were exceptional, taking both those poor teams deep into the playoffs! Another year where teams had to win both Regular Season and Playoffs to win anything. I'm POSITIVE Timdog was quite upset when 2004 beat him in the Finals. The wildest thing was -- 2004 was inactive as often as he was active! The league took quite a Big Step in Competitiveness this year!

Regular Season Finish: 1. The Perioikoi 2. Pocket Aces 3. Terre Haute Phillies 4. Baseball Bum 5. Haight Ashbury 6. Timdog 7. Truth Rising (Co-Commish) 8. Glassbreakers (Commish) 9. Back to Basics 10. Braves369 11. Late Arrival 12. Oklahoma Stormchasers 13. Gila Bend Rattlers 14. Brew City 15. RedSox4Life 16. Louisiana Rangers 17. Scrap Iron 18. Houston Texans
Championship Playoff Finish: 1. Terre Haute Phillies 2. Baseball Bum 3. Pocket Aces 4. Glassbreakers 5. Haight Ashbury 6. Truth Rising 7. Timdog 8. The Perioikoi
The Perioikoi was a Totally Dominant team in the Regular Season, but it was Terre Haute Phillies who won the League Championship in the Closest Finals this league had ever experienced, with Baseball Bum battling to an 8-8 tie. That's back-to-back Runnerup Finishes for Baseball Bum!

2013
Regular Season Finish: 1. Haight Ashbury 2. Louisiana Rangers 3. Baseball Bum 4. Let's Go Fphightins 5. Glassbreakers (Commish) 6. Groundskeepers 7. Goldslugger 8. Pocket Aces 9. Truth Rising (Co-Commish) 10. Sailor Jerry 11. Cap's Dogs 12. Back to Basics 13. Olde English 14. Gila Bend Rattlers 15. RedSox4Life 16. Steel City Giants 17. Koyotes 18. Timdog
Championship Playoff Finish: 1. Haight Ashbury 2. Louisiana Rangers 3. Glassbreakers 4. Groundskeepers 5. Pocket Aces 6. Goldslugger 7. Baseball Bum 8. Let's Go Fphightins
It was the first time for this league where the Top-Seeded Teams met in the Finals. Both teams showed Massive Improvement. Haight Ashbury was promptly promoted to GST AA. Several teams progressed straight into the GST Pro (pay) Leagues, where they experienced success. Obviously the competitive level of this league continues to improve very rapidly!

2014
Regular Season Finish: 1. Pocket Aces 2. Baseball Bum 3. Timdog 4. Back to Basics 5. Louisiana Rangers 6. Glassbreakers (Commish) 7. Gila Bend Rattlers 8. Cap's Dogs 9. Truth Rising (Co-Commish) 10. High Plains Drifter
Championship Playoff Finish: 1. Glassbreakers 2. Pocket Aces 3. Baseball Bum 4. Back to Basics 5. Timdog 6. Louisiana Rangers 7. Gila Bend Rattlers 8. Cap's Dogs
Pocket Aces showed VAST improvement, as he DOMINATED the Regular Season all year! Well, I told them, if they allowed the Commissioner to make the Playoffs, we would compete with them to our fullest. It was my only GST Win this year. Yahoo's changes + my error kept this league from filling fully -- that's NOT to say it wasn't the Most Competitive ever! This is going to allow me to promote many worthy teams to the next level of GST's Am (free) leagues -- well deserved.

Regular Season Finish: 1. Le Hace 2. California Chrome 3. Groovelicious 4. Lady Pioneers 5. Back to Basics 6. All About that Base 7. Truth Rising 8. Louisiana Rangers 9. Glassbreakers 10. Dynasty 11. Bucs 12. World Class Team 13. Streets 14. Mark's Crazy Team
Championship Playoff Finish: 1. Le Hace 2. Groovelicious 3. Lady Pioneers 4. California Chrome 5. Louisiana Rangers 6. All About that Base 7. Truth Rising 8. Back to Basics
The league filled back up well. Many of last year's GMs moved to GST AA. It was a new crop of GMs, and what a good crop it was! It was extremely competitive all year, with 2 teams tying for Top Team in the end. Le Hace was in 6th at the halfway mark, but rolled through the Playoffs until the Finals, which was a hard fought battle!
High Win%: .575 Low Win%: .426
