The Legacy Ladder

All-time · through 2025

Every manager, ranked by the league's own Legacy formula — regular-season volume and playoff success, weighted for rings and divided by years served. Longevity helps. Choking does not.

LEGACY POINTS  =  100 × championship  +  50 × runner-up  +  25 × third  +  20 × regular-season crown (best record)  +  8 × playoff game won  +  2 × regular-season win  −  15 × last-place finish
FORM  =  the same points earned in the last 5 seasons, divided by 5. Playoff-game wins are excluded (the league only tracks those as a career total).
Legacy is cumulative on purpose — a trophy case doesn't shrink. Recency lives in its own column instead of being blended in. "Old score" is what the spreadsheet's formula produced.

Season Archive

2006 – 2025

Final regular-season standings and the podium for every year on record. Dashed years are missing from the spreadsheet.

The Record Book

Computed from the archive

Everything here is derived from the standings on file. Single-game records need a box-score export from ESPN — see the note at the bottom.

Needs a data pull

Single-game records aren't here yet

Highest single-week score, biggest blowout, worst win, closest margin — none of that lives in the spreadsheets, because they only ever stored final records. It's all sitting in ESPN. Export the weekly scoreboards and this section fills itself in.

The Money

2026 season

Keepers

The part everyone argues about

Read this before the rules meeting, not after.

Keeper Archive

2015 – 2024

Who kept whom, and what it cost.

The Trade Vault

Heists & regrets

No trade deadline, no trade limit, six votes to veto. Twenty years of that and only one trade is written down anywhere.

Send me the rest

Fourteen managers, one recorded trade

Post the thread in the group chat and let people nominate. Best heist, worst regret, the one that got vetoed, the one that should have been. Send me what comes back and I'll build the wall.

The Wall of Shame

Last place, and what it cost

Finish last, answer for it publicly. This is the permanent record.

Gaps before 2023

Seventeen seasons unaccounted for

Only 2023 through 2025 are on record. Whatever happened between 2006 and 2022 is currently lost. Ask around — someone has photos, and photos belong here.

Trash Talk

No app, no login

Nobody opens the spreadsheets. Nobody is going to install Discord either. So this board takes posts through a Google Form and reads them back out of the sheet — the same Google account you already have, zero new software.
