Talking tMBU is looking for GM's!

One of the best writing leagues on the internet has openings. It's a talent only league and has been around OOTP and online leagues for years (6 years in fact). We still have many of our original GM's around!

We just converted to OOTPX last season and looking for a few good people to join our long standing league. tMBU has been around since real life year 2003 and we have over 20 years of player and team history in the league. We've suffered some growing pains as we switched hosting sites and lost a few owners due to the issues with the last patch but with over half the league dedicated to keeping our long-running league moving we are confident we'll get back "on top" in no time.

There is a thread on our forums that list the current open teams and we're 1 day away from the draft so you'll have a chance to put your own "stamp" on a franchise right from the start.

Relocations are possible but must be done through an official proposal (details are in the League Constitution). the Money Ball Union Constitution. Essentially we value our history over the satisfaction a new owner may have with a quick relocation. You need to earn the right to relocate by participating in the league and accumulating the points required to move a team.

TMBU is a fictional, 24 team, talent-only league with tons of owner participation. We currently have a $90 mil salary cap.

The tMBU isn't for everyone - we expect participation. It's what drives any strong league. We have a solid community of owners and our ex-owners pop in from time to time to see how we're doing. We SIM 3 times per week and have a rather quick season moving from off-season to off-season in about 2 1/2 months.



Any interested parties may contact our recruiting coordinator, Jeff Pasquale, via email at jeff_536@hotmail.com or via PM (traderblue). It would also be helpful if you register for the league forums and post in the FAQ Newbies section. A simple post about you and your OOTP history would be helpful. Once you get the go ahead from myself or Jeff you can pick one of the available teams.

Our forums are quite active and can be considered the life-blood of the league. We have a fine collection of owners that are dedicated to winning and passionate about their team. Our online community is somewhat like a family. We argue like brothers on occasion but we value the league and the sum of its parts more than our own personal goals.

The talent-only aspect also sets us apart from many other leagues. It can make the job of evaluating players so much more challenging when you never get to see their ratings. If you have been performing well in other leagues and are looking for a challenge, I highly recommend a talent-only league.

Come on over and join our league. We will welcome you with open arms. In my biased opinion, tMBU is the best league around. Join and find out for yourself.

So, drop into the our forum, sign up and say hello to us all in our New Owners forum!
