Having read all the posts lately about the lack of great owners, and how many "quality" leagues there was out there, I was a little nervous to put out my league, Hardball. However, knowing how many good owners there are out there, and knowing that I can run a great league (used to run a Madden Sim), I have a feeling this league will be one of the best given some time.

Here's the backround on the league:

Name: Hardball
Website: http://simsportsworld.com
# of Teams: 16
Player Database: Fictional
Sims: Twice a Week, 15/16 Days at a Time
Coaches/Scouts: Off
DH: OFF
Salary Cap: On

I am devoting all my free time to this league, so I would like to see owners who actually want to play join. Those who are quitters, or get bored with things easily, do not join. This league will require you to stay active, and if you don't, we will find a new owner. No sense in having a half active owner, when a great owner could be on the outside looking in.

Lineups will be submitted by FTP, and since that is so easy, you will be required to hand in a lineup for every sim (missing 1 or 2 is fine, missing 5 or 6 is not). Posting on the Message Boards is encouraged, and just plain old fun is expected!

The Initial Draft will be CPU ran, serpentine style, once the league is full. Also, in-depth team pages, and league articles can, and will be expected from me, as I like to do things right, with a lot of extra features.

Currently, Church (commish of imlb) is making team logos, so we all know how great they will look

The 16 Franchises are as follows:

Boston Glory
DC Senators
New York Freedom
Pittsburgh Steel
Chicago Windstorm
Detroit Ignition
Indiana Racers
Toronto Harbour

Houston Desperados
Orlando Scorch
New Orleans Fiesta
San Juan Banditos
Honolulu Crusaders
Los Angeles Stars
San Francisco Miners
Seattle Rainstorm

If you would like to join, email commish@simsportsworld.com with the following info:

First/Last Name
Age
Email
AIM S/N (if you have one)
5 Teams of Choice
A short explanation on why you want to join

Just an FYI, I really do not like owners who do not know how to spell correctly, or use correct grammar

For some reason it gets on my nerves, so if you can not take the time to spell out the words "you" "what", it's probably best you did not sign up

Also, you need the latest update of OOTP4 to join, version 4.2B, and the league WILL convert to OOTP5 within a month of it coming out, so only join if you plan on buying OOTP5

Thanks for your time, and hopefully I will see you in the league!
