Its true. I said no to Dan asking me if I was bringing the league back so many times, that I finally IMed him saying that if HE wanted to bring it back, he'd have my blessings.

For those who were around during v5 and v6, The Circuit was a great league that began in 1895 with 12 teams with realistic settings, no financials, and a realistic name file that I created.

Over the years, Des Moines' Derbies, the Peoria Distillers, Providence Ruby Legs and Dayton's Gems were added.

The character of this league was unmatched, IMO. The 126 game schedule forced me to learn lots of things about OOTP and how to speed up development and slow down aging due to the shortened schedule.

What came of it was a great little league where the players had character and stories of the old time players sprang to life.

Here's to hoping that every former owner comes back. That group was a crew indeed and we had fun talking about everything from Cleveland's Independents (Indies) to Harrisburg's Rubes, to the Sallies of St. Lou.

Best of luck with this Dan! I'm so proud to see the Circuit live again!
