Search for "Longest Running Leagues".

Even better:
What separates them from the leagues that shut down?

So you are a Padres fan AND a Broncos fan? HUH?!

Oh wait, I know. You became a sports fan in 1998 when the Broncos were in the Super Bowl and the Padres were in the World Series. Now it makes sense, frontrunner!!

You wasted your 3000th post on that? I'm kind of honored and disappointed all at once.

Of course it goes well with the rest of your posts.

Frontrunner, I wasted 2999 others with posts even worse than that one!

Ha, I see you edited your post after I put up mine! That is just sooooo like a Broncos fan!

The BTTF League opened with 2001 real rosters in April of 2001 with OOTP3. We are now in May of 2014. So, we played 14 seasons in about 2 1/2 calendar years. And, we use all real players...............no fictional players. All players taken from minor league rosters at all levels.

We expanded to a 32 teams, 16 in each league, and 4 divisions in each league.

I'm sure that pick will do as well for you as this one.

Not Guilty! By definition a Padres fan can't be a front runner!

I have been a Padres fan since I went to my first game at the Murph in 1981 when I was 5. As for the Broncos, I cried when they lost the Super Bowls to the Giants and Redskins. I also smoked a fat cigar and took congratulatory phone calls from my friends when they won their first one.

Of course I'm probably labeled Frontrunner forever now.

That's okay, it's just our misconfusion.

Crapshoot · 11-20-2003, 11:49 PM

We're confused a lot- that's the kinda people we are.

The ABL (link in sig) is in its 105th season. That's been a long-running league.

Okay, so we're in our fourth year of actual human ownership. But 105 seasons nonetheless!

Major League IV was EST The wee morning hours of Febuary 16th, 1999. We have completed 15 Seasons and are a month in to season 16. Most of our seasons where completed with Front Page Sports Baseball Pro. and we still have 8 to 9 orignial owners. (I hope that some day OOTP5) Could incorprate the graphics and game play of it with what they have going here I think that would be great but thats just my opionion really liked playing that game)...

Anyways thats our little summary on history.......

oh yeah!!! We show no signs of folding anytime soon....

Uh Oh Chongo... Wonder if this will re-open an old can of worms.

Been discussed several times but the final outcome (at least from what I remember) is that OOTP is text based and in the past, the majority didn't want graphics to eat up Markus's time.
