It's not my intention to hijack this 'feel-good' thread - but - IMO, I feel the need to compare the early versions of OOTP with Baseball Mogul. In the very beginning, most of my playing time was consumed with playing BM. However, by the fourth and fifth editions, the scales started to significantly shift towards OOTP.

Years later, I've bought so many more versions of OOTP (than BM), that I'm utterly shocked at how some people perceive the longevity of FHM. The bottom line is that Markus, Sebastien, Malte and Jeff (and others!) have identified a bonafide weakness in the sports simulation market and their plan is to create and support an amazing product in the hockey genre.

I could care less about the fanboys and the haters of this amazing game - this community is too strong! This community propelled OOTP to the very top of the baseball sim world, and hockey will be next. My real concern lies with the issue that OOTP is developing a football game, and I absolutely hate American football!
