I am in the process of starting an 80s OOTP league. It will begin at 1980 with real players and progress using real players. It will be a 28 team league; 11 spots are currently available. If you are interested, e-mail me at bsimpson1974@alltel.net and I can send you more information.

Of the GMs currently signed up, 13 are veterans of various VBL leagues (www.virtualbaseball.org), all of which are/were simmed using Sierra's Front Page Sports Baseball Pro 98. (VBL3 is still active and uses this sim.) VBL4 will be the first to use OOTP. We are considering bypassing the game's financial system and using our own free agent/franchise player system that has been used in other VBLs, but this has not been officially decided yet. Also, be aware that the league will begin with a fantasy draft of the 1980 player pool. We have a strong core of excellent, dedicated owners starting out, and I would certainly like to add a few more, either newcomers or veterans.

Thanks,
Brandon Simpson
