Athens, Tennessee. Chicago Cubs fan since 1995. OOTP fan since version 3 (2001ish?).

Talked to a lot of awesome folks and participated in many great discussions on here. This is my favorite community online by far.

Sydney, Australia.

Go A's!!

My father used to fly for Qantas and as a wee tacker he bought me an A's jersey and a Packers jersey. Been a diehard fan of both ever since.

Wasn't until about 10 years ago (when I was in my early 40s) that I realised why he chose those teams. Because they are green and gold, the unofficial / sporting colorway of our country.

I'm a nice bloke, not necessarily a smart one...

Just outside Cleveland, Ohio. Been playing OOTP since version 4. Long time Cleveland sports fan, so I know what pain is all about

I grew up in northeast Connecticut, the “Quiet Corner,” and am currently living a little north of Boston, Massachusetts. The Red Sox have been my team all along.

I enjoy video games and was unsatisfied with my baseball options as a Xbox 360 owner. I discovered OOTP 15 while rooting around for something to scratch the digital hardball itch.

It’s been fun so see how the game has evolved during my experience with it. This community, with its kindness, creativity, and willingness to share or help, is a significant reason why I continue to play.

I live in northwest Indiana. I’m a lifelong White Sox fan, and I’ve been playing since OOTP3.

Hey PSUColonel - My wife and I now live in Savannah, having moved here in 2016, but before that, lived my entire life in the Chester County, PA area. We couldn't take anymore of the Northeast Winter's, so moved, and we both just retired last year!!

Only been to Hilton Head a couple of times. Once, to the beach with our daughter and family, and the other time we stopped at, I believe it was the Crazy Crab restaurant.

Orioles fan of course. I was born right before or at the tail-end of the dominant Orioles teams of that late 1960s and 1970s era, but was old enough to appreciate the 1983 World Series, which sort of capped-off that dynasty.

Also, grew-up with some of the best radio baseball announcers ever to grace the airwaves - the Orioles always seem to have great radio guys.

I'm a little bit younger than you, but I grew up listening to Jon Miller on the radio for the Orioles. They have had some great ones for sure. Miller, Fred Manfra, Chuck Thompson & Joe Angel. Love them all.

Northwest Florida. 15 minutes from destin which is rated the #5th most beautiful beach in the world along with many movie stars summer homes....I personally hate the tourist traffic, but it is what it is.....I do not follow modern baseball. I'm a product of the 80's. I stopped following once steroids was such a part of the game.....I'm more into the old timers....I'm totally old skool...I just love the game

I live in Tualatin, part of the West side of the Portland Metro area (Oregon). I just turned 60 two days after Christmas

My only local allegiance is with the Oregon Ducks (for whom I played) and the Portland Trail Blazers (for whom I did not play). My baseball teams are in Los Angeles (Dodgers) and Boston (Red Sox); my football team is in Texas (Cowboys), my hockey teams are in Boston (Bruins) and Chicago (Blackhawks). I also follow Manchester United, Liverpool and Barcelona.

My claim to fame was my interception and 32-yard TD return in the snow in Provo, UT in Oregon's 31-7 loss to BYU. The thrill of that moment became palpable in later years when that BYU QB led the Chicago Bears to a Super Bowl win...his name was Jim McMahon.

Been playing OOTP since version 2

rink23 · 03-02-2021, 08:04 AM

I grew up in Morrison, Ill., about two hours straight west from Chicago and maybe 12 miles from the Mississippi River.
Been in the metro-east since late 2000 and currently live in O'Fallon, Ill.
Back when we could go to games, on a good day, I could be in downtown St. Louis in 20-25 minutes with a 12-minute walk to the ballpark from where I parked.
Hopefully, I will get to make that journey a few times this summer.

Brighouse, West Yorkshire, U.K. - I think you could say it's not a traditional hot-bed of baseball!! [But it is the home of the best brass band in the world!]

Mr. HudsonBay · 03-02-2021, 02:38 PM

Howell, MI, home of the Highlanders! (equally located between Ann Arbor, Lansing, Flint, and the western suburbs of Detroit).

Born and raised in Michigan, grew up a Tigers fan listening to Ernie Harwell and the dulcet tones of his sidekick, Paul Carey on WJR.

Started playing Statis Pro Baseball in the mid-eighties and looked this past Summer to see if that was still a viable game when I found OOTP 21. Not sure how I never came across it before, but OOTP has been a savior for my son and me during COVID.
