Re: 9-Lives: 31.202 – The Sad Case of Chris Long

Late Career bounce? He's only 25. I'm learning that this game is (deliciously) incredibly cruel to prospects. It's a welcome change from back in the day with Front Page Sports Baseball where a guy with incredible potentials was a sure shot future All Star. I really love how some players go the eithe...

Re: 2031 River Monsters Beat (2031-09-30) Issue 5 - Wrap Up

LOL - It's funny y'all latched on that part of the update. Fortunately he's not making much, so I'll probably trade him if the opportunity arises. He could definitely be an asset for the right situation. Just like real life, a potentially talented player shit cans his own career because he can't kee...

Re: GM Change, Twin Cities River Monsters

Thanks!! Yeah that Cruz contract seems off. Maybe overpaid in desperation. I thought maybe he experienced a big ratings drop after signing, but it looks he's a career .260 25-30hr player. He's only signed through 2033, so if he can manage to get back to .250 & 28 HRs, I'll take it. He had two back i...

Well, technically there's not much the owner can do to the GM in an online league right?

I just thought it was funny to get that message from the owner today. Maybe it's personal? Sounds like a future potential funny plot line.

Yeah, I've already started trolling around the league checking players.

The only downside is that they must stay on the active roster all season or be forfeited I believe.

2031 River Monsters Beat (2031-09-30) Issue 4

New GM takes over with one week left in the season. Scott "Spiccoli" Piccoli was introduced early this morning as the 3rd (or 4th?) GM of the TWC River Monsters to much fanfare. Actually, there might have been one other local news team on hand and a lost reporter from CattleNetwork.com looking for ...

Re: Twin Cities General Manager Revolving Door Continues to

Thanks!! Not sure what to do next. I've downloaded all or most of the files.

I might need a little technical help to get started. I've been playing single player awhile, but this is the first online league.

Greetings y'all. My name is Scott and I've been newly introduced to OOTP. I honestly didn't know there were online leagues such as these and I'm super pumped up. I'm sad to say the last time I played a similar league was with Front Pages Sports Baseball (and Football) in the 90's. lol. It was very s...

Twin Cities General Manager Revolving Door Continues to Spin

River Monsters Manager Jared Brown has to be wondering how long his tenure is going to last after watching yet another GM walk out the door. He's suffered through almost two seasons of terrible baseball, though some might say whether he's been given a fair shake. Currently the team is being ad-hoc r...
