That's when I retired... my life has been pretty much OOTPB, music collecting, music listening, watching movies and old TV shows on Netflix... and of course, spending a lot of time with my wonderful wife... also traveling to all the MLB ballparks and many, many minor league parks, too... we have only three more MLB to go... Washington, new San Diego and new Miami.
Baltimore is my favorite new ballpark... Phoenix is really nice... so are Seattle... San Francisco... Pittsburgh... Philadelphia.
Fenway and Wrigley are special for historic reasons... but not comfortable.
New Yankee Stadium is not as good as the Old Yankee Stadium.
Toronto is the worst ballpark... really dingy and dirty... but have really nice fans.

Sorry for the digression... need to get back on topic.

OOTPB is a dream come true for me... I played APBA baseball in the early 1950's using player cards and outcome boards... kept all stats by hand... and dreamed about the day when I wouldn't have to spend so much time on the stats.

Lo and behold, my dream came true in August 2002 when I came across OOTP3.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Markus.

Interesting stuff. I found quite a few retirees here and when baseball mogul offered online leagues. Glad you fit your wife in as well.
