If you are looking for a fictional league with a responsive and dependable commish check out the AFBL. A grouping of teams from Books and Movies and players from them being added in each season for some extra interest.

Yup, Robert is right! This league is fun and Tony, the commish, is right on top of everything.

Thanks guys! I'm having a great time with the league. I can't wait till some of these rookies start coming out.

I'm still trying to decide who'll show up in this years crop.

Still one opening left in the AFBL. Surprisingly, it's the Flushing Bridegrooms, who have the first pick in the upcoming draft.

Great chance to get in the league guys, the rookie pool will contain some very recognizable names.

BUMP. (as a new owner with the #2 pick, I want to get this show on the road!)

The last opening has been filled. If anyone is still interested, feel free to join the mailing list.

Hi folks,
The AFBL has just had another team become available. The Baltimore Pastimers, who finished one game out of the Playoffs last season, are now available.

This years crop of rookies features Roy Hobbs, Pedro Cerrano, Brock Rutherford, Billy Chapel, Willie Mays Hayes, and Rick Vaughn. Who'll show up next year? Join the AFBL and find out.

We're looking for serious owners only. If you'd like to join, email me at: tonyd@modernrelic.com.
