Charlie Brown would not have made The Show

Calculating Charlie Brown's Wins, Losses, & Other Stats: Introduction

Okay, so Chuck wouldn't get called up from AAA-Pawtucket, or Single-A Lowell for that matter. But he has to be considered one of the worst coaches of all-time right? Butchering both performance arts and sports is a big red flag that Charles needs to just chill out and step down from leadership roles. I mean, lets just scratch the surface a little bit:

1. Schroeder at Catcher?!?! We all had friends growing up that hated sports, lets just say he was definitely not going to cut it behind the plate. Some people were born to play RF. He even quits on his team in the early 60's to play piano. Wow, couldn't see THAT one coming....

2. Lucy needed to be manager of this team. A Bobby Knight, in-your-face style would have terrified everyone into not-sucking. However, her lack of loyalty is worrisome.

3. Worst fielding pitcher of all-time too? Chaz wasn't exactly Greg Maddux....

4. Having a dog play SS sure doesn't help matters. Weak.


In all seriousness, the guy that analyzed this deserves some sort of award for his work. This is Bill James type sh@t:

"EDIT: On August 5, 1962, Snoopy and Linus turn a double-play to end the game. As a reader pointed out, this must mean that Team Peanuts won the game. I initially considered this strip as one with an unclear outcome, but that's not so. The only way the game can end with the defensive team turning a double-play is if they have the lead in the top of the ninth. This is notable because it's the first time that the team is shown winning a game without any strange circumstances. The nonchalance that Snoopy and Linus show with the win is also uncharacteristic. Maybe Charles Schulz didn't realize the double-play implied a win for Team Peanuts? I don't know..."

True lots of free time for that guy....
