We (Seamheads.com) just finished our second "high profile" league and participation was spotty at best. Some of the team owners really got into it and made lineup changes throughout the season; others sent me their rosters before Opening Day and were never heard from again. We had some writers post about the league on their blogs, which brought us, and hopefully Markus, some attention. Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch was especially generous with blog updates, and guys like Chad Finn (Boston Globe), Jonah Keri (ESPN), and Joe Posnanski (Kansas City Star) mentioned us on a handful of occasions as well. Curt Schilling blogged about our league at 38pitches.com. Hopefully all of the above resulted in more exposure and sales of OOTP.

I'd like to continue to spread the word about OOTP but I'm a little chagrined to read that "the outline of the content was not enough to keep my attention." So I'm open to ideas about ways to improve our content that will keep the attention of readers and future purchasers of OOTP. Let me know how we could have done better, so we can appeal to more OOTP users in the future.

Thanks!
Mike
