Thanks to both of you for the kind words. There are so many great stories hidden in a 65 year sim. All you have to do is take the time to look. For example, I knew the 1960 and 62 Workd Series each went 7 games but I had no idea the Yankees blew a 3-0 lead in ‘62 before checking box scores last night. I was looking to see how Mantle did to write about his current slump but I discovered a much better story on the Reds comeback.
I am not a writer but did take broadcasting many years ago in college and spent a few years in radio news/sports before realizing there was very little money in the career so I went into management, first in the financial services industry and now in agriculture. Among other things OOTP provides a nice outlet for me to relive my broadcasting days. I even find myself doing my news story on a text document like a beat writer while watching out games and sometimes even doing play-by-play in my head.
