Its just unfortunate you followed it up with all those years of placing last.

You know what's really amazing about there only being 4 champions, I don't think Saalty or Pro ever went back to back. Unless this past year was the first back to back win? I might have this wrong but I really don't think we've had someone repeat.

Who "won" the covid season? I feel like that might have been me but I really wasn't counting it (and am still not) so I honestly can't remember whether I did or not. I feel like my team was at least good for those 2 months.

You know "winning" that covid season was less about winning it myself and more about making sure JY, Steeze, or Krazy didn't win it and try to pass it off as a title.
It was 100% necessary to preemptively block any of that potential nonsense from getting started. So quite frankly very successful "season" for that reason alone imo.
No matter how much they deny it, with the sheer level of desperation they must all be feeling we know that would have been a thing.

Without league history I might also have this wrong, but is this the correct count for titles?
Saalty - 7
Pro - 3
89Fox - 1
Bacon - 1
Saalty - 7
Pro - 3
89Fox - 1

This is before it became a keeper league of course. I think that first year was just straight up and then we switched to keeper going forward. Maybe you don't count that year as A-League. I honestly count it personally.
Edit:
Alright I'm a retard. I totally missed you added one to Pro's column to give him 4. It adds up now.
Edit2:
Pro-Shark was also the first year champ I back tracked and found out.

Actually I think it was a keeper league from the beginning, but we didn't set up that first season as a keeper league so the league history didn't get saved.

Also let's not forget 2019 where I won all 3 of my playoff games including knocking off the #1 and #2 seed. JY took a raping that Championship game. Still don't think he's fully recovered.

Then it kind of just dwindled off.
Would be curious to know if Pro or Chill were in that isolated season of A-League before it turned keeper.... or am I the only one still around who actually played in that league before we made a keeper league. I actually would have thought you were but sounds like you were in B-League for that year.

Surely JY will be along to tell me how my championship doesn't matter because it was so long ago any minute now. The longer it takes everyone else to get over the hump the better my championship looks. JY, Steeze, and Krazy floundering is a glorious sight to see.
