Hobos run ends

June 14, 2012 at 05:42AM View BBCode

After seventeen consecutive trips to the post season the Kansas City Hobos were eliminated from playoff contention for the 1995 season when [url=http://beta.simdynasty.com/boxscore.jsp?boxscoreid=59516&cityid=5]Detroit downed Tampa Bay 2-1[/url] in 10 innings in game #152.

Nice run but now they're losers just like all the other losers .

I was gonna mention this at the end of the season.

I love how despite how they won over 100 games this season and yet still they return to loserdom.

During their record breaking 17 year run (1978-1995)

-The Hobos placed first 15 of those years, and "settled" for the Wild Card in 1982 and 1994.
-Went to the World Series 11 times
-Won it 6 times
-Tied the # of consecutive series won (1990-1992) with the 1987-1989 NY Knights
-(side note, the NY Knights set the record for most consecutive WS appeared in during the Hobos streak. It's 6, from 1987-1992. 5 of them were vs. the Hobos)

Anyway, congrats Hobos, and welcome to Sim Golf in October.

Not really, I just happened to check in to see if anything was happening with the strikeout thingy and saw that I had clinched the wildcard so I thought I'd use the opportunity to talk some smack about MFCS Hobos.

you see I checked in to discover that the season is over (again) and my team was historically bad - but then again if I'm expected to bid on and sign my own FAs what do you expect

That's kind of the way I feel about the KBL as well .

are you still there then? and if you are why? For some reason I just never got "engaged" in that league - Probably partly because I didn't have any success and partly because a certain owner was an a$$
