How I found out I am an OOTP addict

So my latest season ended a week ago inIRL. So I of course 'put" the game away to await version 21. But somehow I am at spring training.

I find myself devoting all my free time to a Perfect Team 20 team that is merely proof of concept for the same team I'm going to do in PT21. As soon as that starts I probably won't even look at this team again. Yet here I am...

My wife told me, "Looks like you found you a 2nd wife, huh>" And she actually calls it OOTP & not OUT OF THE PARK BASEBALL

My wife saw OOTP XX on my screen and started calling it Ootpoxx. (she does know what it stands for

I’m secretly cheering that we have to have four weeks out of school here in Ohio because the game comes out on Tuesday. That should tell you all you need to know

Does she sound out the letters? You know, "O...O...T...P"? Or does she say "Ootehpuh"?

I found out when I couldn't put the game down and tried other games not just baseball and always went back to OOTP I still occasionally take a 2 week break once in a while. I haven't bought another game for 7 years now as this is the only game I play and I pretty much tossed Xbox and PS out the window. been playing since 2000 or 2001 forgot which year.

In my earlier years my wife told me "OOTP" will soon stand for "Out On The Porch" because that was where I'd be if i didn't stop playing it so much.
