What I love about OOTP is all the different ways you can play. I have never done a complete fictional league but I am in the process of starting one based on college baseball settings. I am a Gamecock alum and season ticket holder. I am going to play 60 game seasons like college baseball, real college teams and conferences but I am not going to have age limits. So a professional college baseball league if that makes sense.
I usually like to play historical dynasties and then sprinkle in a fictional high school feeder league.
I am curious how often you have played with "Curt Schilling" on your teams? Did you ever try to get the 1993 Phillies to win it all? etc
I have a few Red Sox historical dynasties that I am working on. The one I am getting ready to start is my Theo Epstein challenge. I take over the 2003 Sox as the GM and see if I can do better than Theo over a 9 year period. I wonder if I can pull off the Schilling trade in 2003 instead of waiting for 2004? I also am in the middle of a 1975 Red Sox dynasty (the first Sox team of my life) and then a Fenway Dynasty starting in 1912. I love that dynasty. The 1912 Sox may be the best ever Red Sox team...of course I am biased towards the 2004 team. Anyway, great stuff. I look forward to reading more. |
Thank for this! Glad you are following along. I have never played a dynasty with myself in it, until I started the 1950 Dynasty I posted in this forum. I have that league on my laptop and will play it as I travel over the year. I don't own a club yet, and it's a cool format I think, all players from all era's coming into the draft/league as the game chooses. The cool thing about it is I keep thinking of players not yet in the league, Ruth, Gehrig, Mantle, Mays, Koufax etc., but I was one of the original players the game chose..
