Well as they say on CSI, I'm following the evidence. With morale off and a dominant team I won three WS in a row while going 12-3 to 12-6. I play 7 game series throughout. Nothing was close.I was blowing out teams 10-2 etc..

In the previous 8 seasons with morale on and a dominant team I won 2 WS but never reached it except for the wins. In the succeeding 3 seasons with morale on, no WS wins but I did make it to and lose the WS last season (a first in 22 simmed seasons).

You could be right, this may just be co-incidence or a small sample size. I also don't really want the game to be easier to win. That is why I turned morale back on.
