many yrs ago, was in a league that used PCAnywhere for "head to head play" on an APBA baseball game. had to organize play times and fuss with emailing the .dat files to the commissioner, etc....but there was nothing like managing head-to-head.

I still recall how much fun it was when I pinch-hit a RHB late in a playoff game, hoping the other mgr would take the bait and pull his starter for a righty. He did, which let me then pinch-hit my aging slugger hitting from the left side. He homered, and afterwards we talked on the phone about the sequence. "...I knew you would do that, but I had to take the chance!" Lot more fun than tricking the CPU.
