Welcome to the league

It's a Grand Old Game is a historical real progression league started in 1960 and run by Commissioner Willbhere.
The road has had some bumps but there are owners that have been since the beginning and I'm sure would agree this is a pretty good and competitive league.

It's interesting that the whole point of bringing in WAR was to favor guys who stat lines might not otherwise be great, but had hidden value, for a variety of reasons. Whereas this will have the opposite effect--favoring high stat line, low WAR players.
