Best game ever

Microleague was one of the 1st computer games I ever played, and is still one of the most revolutionary. It set the stage for all the future sports sims.

Being a Pirates fan at the time, I still remember playing my first game, with the 79 pirates, and Dave Parker and Willie Stargell going back to back. I was running downstairs telling my dad that this was the coolest thing in the history of the world.

Like other baseball crazies in this thread, I too would sim out entire seasons worth of games (and the sim was just the computer playing the game out, just like a human would - games took 20 minutes to play).
