Subject: Home/Road split

     In regards to home/road difference, I suggest the league take a cautious approach here. It is real easy to look at raw numbers and make a snap judgement, but a lot harder to look at the full scope of a team.
      What type of team is it... A power team in a pitchers park? Probably will win more games on road then at home.  Same as a punch and judy team playing in a HR park.
      What about good teams in general. I would hope most of the Smiley owners with a good team could beat HAL (even Super Hal) more times then not with everything being equal. A huge advantage (even with Home field advantage turned on) to manage as the game situations occur... I would hope a manager of a decent team could win at least 10 more road games (46-35)... Now if a team that is decent for the first 3 years of Smiley did that, they have 33 more wins on the road then losses. So assuming the team is a .500 team each year, this manager is at a +33. Is he cheating? I wouldn't think so based on the above.
      What about teams that have good road records but lousy home records. Assuming that the team isn't a power team in a pitchers park (as described above), and plays over their head one year (30-51 at home and 55-26 for example) is that to say the guy is cheating? I know for a fact that isn't neccessarily the case. I have seen the above happen on several occasions in face to face leagues. So isolated cases like this do happen frequently. But, I do think the Red flags come out if the same team consistently has splits like the above example. 1 year means nothing, 2 years the league better start keeping an eye on it.. By the 3rd year (not neccessarily in a row) I think the pattern is very definable

Again, just my .02

Scott
