Corporate League Baseball

jazzrack · 11-09-2010, 04:47 AM

SO you are sifting through the on-line league listings asking yourself something like.

"self. should i join a/another league. what kind of league? Most leagues are a dime a dozen

i want something more. Not just the best competition around, but a community, a place to thrive in the on-line baseball league geekdom"

Well than Corporate League Baseball if for you. Not only will we again be the toughest league around in terms of competition. We are returning a strong community, with a number of member who have been out of ootp on-line leagues (if not ootp all together) returning just because of the CLB. Pepe is back doing some of his fabulous logos. A fully featured website that is also easy to use that includes website IM, an easy article/blog system so users can post to the front page from a forum post with the click of a button. auto embedding from major video site (youtube, ustream, justin.tv, ect). Live streaming sims, webshows, and specials (currently my office & x-mass music) also we have CLB channel 2 for special CLB only streams.

and you ge me, you friendly neighborhood chairman

The league is based on the concept that the greatest composition comes from unleashing the creativity of the individual owner & on returning to baseballs roots of corporate sponsorship. we called it a fictoral league because we used both "real" and fictional players. the original started in 1980, i plan to start this one with the players strike of 72

This is a super league with great support, but the really cool part is that your profits and losses are a part of the game as well as your wins and losses.
