Applying for: New Applicant
Reason for applying:
First/Last Name: Patrick MYou won’t regret it.
I’ve been off OOTP for a handful of years as my free time was cut short due the birth of my child. She’s now in school full time, post Covid, and I have got the OOTP itch again.
I’m dedicated and only like being in a single league at a time for full immersion. I’ve been searching for the right league for months, and honestly, this is my first application. Hats off to you guys for what you’ve been able to accomplish and keep going for so long.
In previous leagues I wrote a lot. I have a degree in Communication and did my fair share of journalism. Team and league previews, playoff previews, draft, etc. Also did a podcast for awhile. I’m not someone you will have to worry about when it comes to the Participation Points.
I’m very competitive but only to a level that’s best for the league. You guys got something really cool going on that I’d love to be a part of. Thanks for the opportunity to apply.
City/State/Country: Denver, CO - USA

Have you read the BBA Constitution and agree to abide by its rules?: Yes.

Describe your GM style: I like to build through the draft and FA. I will make trades but usually only if I can see it making sense from both sides. I like to let a player leave one year early as opposed to one year late.
Have you ever answered to the alias "Al Hoot"? (a little BBA inside joke!): Can’t recall
Tell us more about yourself: I’m entering my late 30’s. Played OOTP for almost 20 years, with some brief stops in between. I coach my daughters basketball and T-Ball teams. I pay my taxes.
