    in the first league that I was ever in, I won every year I was in it except for one I finished 2nd. 2002-2008. Then I took a break for 3 years, returned last year with a friend as partner and won again. This year I'm still in it but have my own team this time. Only in 5th place though.

    redraft league so obviously its easy to do this to some extent...

      interesting ... got me to go back through our records; 26 years, only 2 back to back titles, both in the very early years (87-88 and 93-94). I won last year but don't see the stars aligning this year (the only breaks I'm getting are Jose Reyes' ankle).
      It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

        that had to be a weak league. Sorry, but if you win every year the competition is pathetic.

          its a mix of good and bad owners, a lot more good than bad though. My keeper league has many of the same owners and I've only won that once.
