The reason he had so many was a bug in their STH formula the 1st three seasons. When a DI team won the championship, they got a big bump in STH's similar to a team that promotes to another division, which the BB's stated was a bug. They fixed the bug so that champions are now capped around 4k, but those that benefited in the first 3 seasons are still seeing benefits from that bug, as they are slowly over a few seasons brought back to earth with the rest of us.
