Never been worse

As we check the Frontier League's standings today, we notice this is the low-water mark for the Wild Things franchise. Washington has a 22-33 record, and is 16 games behind first-place Oakland County and 8 1/2 games out of a playoff spot.

Never before has a Wild Things team been 11 games under .500. Washington had been 10 games under .500 last year.

When checking this, I was reminded of just how consistently good the Wild Things had been during the regular season. After starting 1-5 in their first season (2002), Washington went until the 35th game of the 2006 season before having a record of five games under .500. More than four years without being more than four games under .500 is simply amazing.

May never have been this far below .500, but the days that followed the end of the 2007 FL Championship Series, and the woeful behavior of the players, the manager, the general manager and the ownership group was far worse than what's happening recently.

And it's not even close.
