Re: 2059 Team Preview Signups
To help me remember, I'm writing here that I will aim to knock out my preview tomorrow! It's been a crazy-busy stretch at work and in life.

Re: Ways To Solve Free Agency Sim Redo In The Future
I appreciate the suggestions. I ran out of gas with trying to keep up with the Discord thread, but when the occasional sim goes wonky, it doesn't hurt to consider future ways of addressing the problem. Now, if I may be a wiseass for a moment, did this glitch give me one more opportunity to be tempte...

Re: How Are You Feeling Going Into Free Agency?
As an older person, I hope I can be forgiven for saying this, but I can't wait until all the 38-year-old free agents retire already. Between them and pitchers with the Fragile tag, I am most likely going to limit my free-agent bids to a guy who might contribute on the fringe. Or, I'll sign Kazantzia...

Re: Sticking Points 2059.1: Decisions, Decisions
Yeah, I'm not usually a big player in free agency even when I have money. I'm afraid I'll do something stupid, like re-sign Kazantziakis.

Re: A Season-Ending Opening Day
Great story. I, too, loved Lou Brock, despite the fact that I was a Cubs fan as a little kid growing up in South Bend, Indiana and getting all the games on WGN back when you could actually watch all the games -- as an older kid we moved to Louisville, and in that triangle I grew to follow the Cubs,...

Re: A Season-Ending Opening Day
Man this was an awesome read! It took me back to when I was a kid going to Braves games at Atlanta Fulton County stadium in the late 70's and 80's. There was a TeePee in the outfield where "Chief Knock-A-Homa" would hang around after running onto the field before games. Sometime around 7-8 years ol...

I'd be happy to write up Jacksonville, one of the top 20 North Florida swamp towns, or whatever the exact quote was from an episode of The Good Place.

A Season-Ending Opening Day
This is how I remember it…It was Opening Day at Veterans Stadium, or at least the Phillies’ home opener. I’m guessing it was 1975. I’m certain that the Phillies were playing the St. Louis Cardinals, and I’m certain I was sitting in the old picnic area down the leftfield line. I forget when it went o...

Sticking Points 2059.1: Decisions, Decisions
"I'm going to miss The Philosopher," said Rockville Pikemen GM Jim Slade after news broke that shortstop Socrates Kazantziakis opted out of his contract, "but I won't miss trying to remember how to spell his last name." Kazantziakis was an imaginative signing when the Pikemen first lured him from th...

Re: How Do You Feel About OOTP 25 So Far?
My thoughts, so far - and I've been playing in OOTP 25 for a few weeks, since the end of my other league's most-recent season - is that it's a frigging game and games are made to evolve, just like us. I'm fine with it. It's still fake baseball. If OOTP 25 instituted pitchers throwing 300 mph or outf...

I'm stuck on step #5. I've got the zip file where you've instructed us to put it, but when I go into OOTP 25, I'm not sure where to "load Brewster." Do I click on Load Game or Import OOTP 24 Game?

Re: How will you use the development lab? Long or Short
There's no quick fix in sight for Rockville. I'm most interested in seeing what this can do for prospects in the middle of their minor league journey.

Re: Twinight Doubleheaders and the Birth of a (Would-Be) Folk Hero
I meant to look up the times of those games, thanks! I was wondering if the whole night took less time than one of those weekly Yankees-Red Sox ESPN games from 10-15 years ago.
