Season 26 Minimum Win Requirement Update

Our minimum win rule in Kenny Powers is 55 wins in one season (50 if you are a first season owner) and 185 wins over 3 seasons. You get 2 "strikes" against the policy, and on the third strike, you're out. If you don't earn any strikes over 3 consecutive seasons, all previous strikes are wiped out.

Two strikes were earned this season, for each owner it is their first.  jnosek and hrrng_dnn each failed to meet the 55 win floor. ozzzball19's win total this season does not count against the 185 wins over 3 seasons requirement, as he took over the team mid-season.

For next season, owners needing to win more than 55 games in Season 26 to avoid a strike are jnosek (62 wins needed) and hrrng_dnn (85 wins needed).

Here's the complete summary through Season 26.
