Email: shawnbensleyjr@gmail.com
Applying for: New Applicant
Reason for applying:
Though I am fairly new to sim sports, I am very open to constructive criticism, I love sports, especially baseball, I follow the MLB religiously also sometimes the KBO, I am no stranger to fantasy sports & most important & I am & have been a VERY DEDICATED member of many fantasy baseball [football, basketball, & hockey] leagues. I would love to join, meet new people, communicate, compete & have lots of fun!
First/Last Name: Shawn Bensley Jr
City/State/Country: Binghamton, NY United States
Email Address: soonernation97.fs@gmail.com
OOTP Forums Username: SoonerNation97
Desired Forum Username: SoonerNation97
Date of Birth (MM/DD/YY) for in-game purposes: 03/24/1997

Have you read the BBA Constitution and agree to abide by its rules?: Absolutely
Do you own the current version of OOTP, and plan to buy all future versions?: Yes
Do you understand the Participation Point System, and agree to be a regular contributor to our community?: Absolutely
What interests you about the BBA?: I read some really good things about this league in the forums on the OOTP website & I love the way the league is setup & it seems this league is full of dedicated owners who love to enjoy the league & keep it fun & interesting.
Describe your GM style: I am fairly new to sim sports, but I would consider my GM style to be fairly balanced so far, as far as I'm concerned I'm not too aggressive minded yet not afraid to risk it for the biscuit!
Have you ever answered to the alias "Al Hoot"? (a little BBA inside joke!): No
Tell us more about yourself: I am 24 years old, married with no children just yet & I have been a Youth Support Specialist for going on 3 years now, & I love my job as I am able to help children who are struggling with their childhood & get them to a better place in life. I have a lovely service dog, his name is PeeWee & he is a Blue Heeler he is almost 2. I have been clean & sober from drugs for 2 & 1/2 years now & couldn't be more happy with where I have gotten myself in these past couple years. I'm a lefty & I was a pitcher & center fielder in my 10 years of playing baseball as a child & adolescent.
How did you hear about the BBA?: I received a PM in regards to my post in the OOTP Forums "OOTP '22 Online League Request To Join" thread, from the PR Director/Historian.

I don't trust lefties. All that graphite on their hand when they write. Something's off.

Your training as a youth support specialist will aid you greatly in dealing with all the immature GMs in the Brewster (not me of course😁)...

Welcome Shawn! Though I am not a youth, I know I could use a support specialist from time to time while running my life, haha.
