Fictional League with Openings - NABF

thickman1 · 03-24-2005, 01:20 PM

Good afternoon all,
I'm here to plug the North American Baseball Federation - NABF. We're finishing up our inaugural season and currently have 3 vacant franchises looking for a little TLC. This league is a fictional league with 24 teams and was started from scratch just this season. Each team was created equal across the board (fan loyalty, rating, revenues) and we had an initial player draft. Some teams built for now - some for the future. I like to think this league shows the true mettle of a solid GM by forcing them to control their franchise on an even playing field - there are no New York Yankees or Tampa Bay Devil Rays franchises here.

I've listed some of the features below. If you're interested in joining drop me an email. I hope to hear from you.

NABF Features:
24 teams
DH off - both leagues
$90,000,000 salary cap
$40,000,000 cash cap
Mandatory participation points (easily achieved if no missed exports)
League programs to redeem PP's:

Stadium Modification - customize your park to your style of play

Team Ad Campaigns - Increase fan loyalty/interest/market size

Spring Training Specialist - Increase the talents of your uber prospects

Modified FA period utilizing a Restricted FA program (see rules)
2 year window with 15 round Ammy draft - to build up teams minor leagues
GM Awards.

Look the site over and if you're interested in being a part of our league drop a line.
Tom Hickman
NABF Commissioner

I failed to mention the three clubs looking for a GM. They are: Anchorage, Portland, and Chicago.

Sounds like a nice league you got there

very good league with strong core of owners. Any new owners will be well received and pleased with the way we run things.

Great league Tom's got running here. Don't worry, he's no rookie when it comes to commishing a league either, despite only starting our second season.

2 back up Andrew's comments. I ran the UBN for 2 years (I think we did 10 or 11 seasons). That league was retired to do the NABF.

1 team still left.

Tom's a great guy and a great Commish.

We may still have 1 opening left, come check us out!
