Fake Baseball has openings...

geoff · 11-08-2003, 10:36 AM

The newly founded Fake Baseball league is looking for a few owners to step in ASAP. We are at the in-season Amateur Draft in our inaugural season, after a creation draft that saw an incredible level of parity established throughout the league. Unfortunately, a handful of owners have decided they are unable to participate in the league.

We currently have openings for...

Cleveland
Detroit
Tampa Bay
Pittsburgh
Colorado
Los Angeles
Toronto

Before you assume these teams are as bad as their MLB counterparts, I should point out we had a creation draft, and many of these teams (particularly TB, PIT, COL and TOR) are quite good.

The league has a sim schedule of one game-day per real-day, every day, with an active Commissioner that never misses a sim.

Please take a look at our league at http://www.fakebaseball.net

Hope to see you there...

Do you have to own the game to be in this league? If not, then I would like to take over the Devil Rays.

I wasn't saving anything... Just was surprised to see someone else out there with the fakebaseball domain.

The price of the game has just been reduced to $19.99. I would hope you could support the developer and community by purchasing the game. You will see your online league enjoyment increase 10 fold and it would help your Commissioners a ton.

Yep, courtesy of an old college girlfriend who used to chide my roommates and I for spending entire weekends sitting around playing "fake hockey" and "fake football" on the Sega Genesis...

I think I just revealed my age...

Well, yes...owning the game would be preferable...especially now that they cut the price down to $20 bones...

San Diego has been taken...

Still looking for owners for Cleveland and Tampa Bay...the Rays have hit a rough patch, and dropped to 6 games out of the AL East race! They have a good team, and could use a good active owner to help them in the fight for the title!

geoff · 11-21-2003, 10:58 PM

Looks like Cleveland is now taken...

Tampa Bay, one of the league's better teams, still looking for an owner. Indicative of the MLB Rays lack of success, tradition, etc., I suppose...
