The Next FBBL Promotion

crackpott · 09-28-2003, 08:10 PM

The offseason has come, and with it, a weeding out of inactive owners. A lot more than usual this time, thus we need to do some recruiting. But here's the thing- I'm not going to do a damn thing this time.

In the spirit of the league, I will be awarding $5 million (league money, of course.

) to the person who can come up with the most creative and effective recruitment post. This contest is open for current league members as well as prospective ones, thus those of you interested in joining (there is a link in my signature), this is a quick way to boost your finances, as well as endear yourself to the OOTP community with your caustic wit.

I look forward to seeing the entries.

FBBL. Come on... you know you want it. The FBBL. It's as cool as Laura Prepon is hot. And if you don't find her hot, you're not cool enough to view Phil's league, so you can just lick my shoe. I'm also in the Beta League too. But nuts to that. FBBL.

I hope that makes the cut.

crackpott · 09-28-2003, 08:50 PM

plagiarism won't win... meaning copying any of my previous recruitments won't do either. Good effort, though.

grindz601 · 09-28-2003, 08:52 PM

Is OOTP5 required

crackpott · 09-28-2003, 09:00 PM

yes.

Carlton · 09-28-2003, 09:04 PM

I think that was his slogan entry Crackpott

The FBBL, better than an old pretzel covered in dog hair and stale twix crumbs...at least when your sober

Long_Long_Name · 09-28-2003, 09:41 PM

Oh, Phil, I didn't expect such a thing from you

.

I refuse to take part of it. If I'm going to win the World Series, I'll do it my way: by boycotting. Hey, worked last year...

crackpott · 09-28-2003, 09:56 PM

we already know your way of doing it... by not submitting a lineup and just cruising off luck.

Long_Long_Name · 09-28-2003, 10:01 PM

Or not.

I just wasn't lucky this offseason.

scotto313 · 09-28-2003, 10:33 PM

Wow nice league. I went over there and ended up staying for more than an hour.

crackpott · 09-28-2003, 11:03 PM

how much of that hour was spent staring at Angelica Bridges?

Mel_Ott · 09-28-2003, 11:05 PM

If he's anything like me, 45 minutes or so.

Speaking of which, what happened to the "Girls of the FBBL"? I loved that part.

Leiter22 · 09-28-2003, 11:06 PM

Come join FBBL even if you don't like Laura, look at some of the other people you can admire:

Ro decided we'd rather see pictures of him in his Yankees hat

Too much traffic. Had to be taken down. And if you think i'm joking - I'm not.

Come join the most realistic OOTP league there is. This league captures every aspect of the game that makes you such a fan of the real thing. We have 40/25 man rosters, agents, some real as*hole owners and a commisioner that is such a loser he makes Bud Selig look like James Bond. How much more realistic can it get?

Ever since the league started, you never go a week without seeing Phillip say something about Phil. That right there is good enough to join the league.

Long_Long_Name · 09-29-2003, 02:02 PM

Yeah, the Phils are great characters
