I'm sorry, but a season is a season. Do we break down the entire record book for 138, 154 and 162 game seasons? The record book is already a monstrosity. Now you want to increase its size by 3 fold or more? People need to get over this hangup. No two seasons are the same, even if they are one year apart. You have differing weather conditions, etc. Someone had pointed out all the differences in the game between Sisler's day and today and left out a huge factor, travel. Sisler never had to travel cross country to play agame the next day. he also didn't have to worry about relievers stepping in in late in teh game throwing 100mph.

Sisler had a nice run, now it's Ichiro's turn at helm, regardless of home games are in the schedule.

I saw weird stuff in that place last night. Weird, strange, sick, twisted, eerie, godless, evil stuff. And I want in.
