Your 2064 GBC/BBA Media Guide!

Post by RonCo » Wed Aug 27, 2025 12:53 pm

Fresh off the BBA presses, I present your 2064 BBA/GBC Media Guide.

Every year's guide is great, of course. But some guides are just absolutely primo, and I think you'll agree this is one of them. It's massive. So massive I'm not going to list the whole TOC. And it's beautiful. Jessie (who I truly appreciate stepping in and putting this thing together on such short notice) did a great job. I think you'll see his standards have raised the bar!

Check it out.

Or, as they say in the old poker game, read 'em and weep (with joy, of course)!



Thanks to all the contributors!

BEST ONE EVAH ... although I didn't get to proofread the Pacific previews, as they came in at midnight, and then they came in again! This Guide has so many excellent contributions it is all due to you guys!

I didn't realize that was the first fourpeat. I thought @recte44 accomplished that, but maybe it was just threepeat.

Midnight the day before? Wow....Kurt was on it!

Heck, I'm used to getting content 30 minutes before post. :)

Seriously, getting this thing together is always a lot of work. So thanks, Jessie. It looks great.

Might as well shut the league down, not sure how we top this year's version. I cannot wait to read each and every article over the next few days. Kudos to JRam for the yeoman's work doing the corralling and publishing, and that cover might be my favorite one yet...outstanding job as always, Mike!

I found a mistake in Good Cop/Bad Cop.

Long Beach appears to have gotten Bad Cop/Bad Cop!

You get what you deserve!

There's several more bad cop/bad cops, since they're so much more fun to write than good cops.

What a great MG! Great job everyone.

I love doing the Rewind that s**t draft rewind. I go to the draft log and just start clicking on players and see interesting things. It feels like the feature writes itself!
