I guess what I found to be a bit annoying to the message is that Jesus freaks and pig f**kers are put into the same context. I don't want to start a pissing match however some things that sound good in your head should maybe be left there.

Learn to read ya' stupid zealot.

That reads Hay-Zeus freaks, not G-Zus freaks. The J is silent. What makes you think I would bash our Lord and Savior?

Trust me, I will be the first in line to kidnap abortion doctors and run Hell-bound-gays over with my ten speed when I get a chance.

Sorry to respond so late, but I was at a PromiseKeepers convention learning about the primacy of man...

I dunno but for some reason I believe this. What about you guys?

I don't think it gets the credit it deserves but the FOLB (Forever Online League Baseball) is one of the best in the business. My Dallas Kingmans (named after the greatest hitter of his era) has finished second for the last two years but look to make a run this season!

Not that I have much experience with these things, afterall this is my first ever online league, but I give top marks to the LBA ( http://www.laseron.org/ ). The other GMs have been great to me, fun to talk to and very helpful as I tried to learn my responsibilities and such. The commish though puts in so much time I have been blown away. Just as an example, he goes to the trouble of hand-editing every player!

Anyway I know others have pointed the league out but I just wanted to confirm what some of the others said here. So far I am having a blast and this is coming from a guy who swore he would NEVER play in an online league. It has been the perfect blend of fun and seriousness. However unless you enjoy fictional baseball this may not be the league for you (I prefer it myself).

Oh and thanks for all your hard work Lloyd. I hope this is as much fun for you as we are having.

Ahh what a good post from nbslcardinals. It is always good to have a goof abll or two in the league.

Rush22 · 09-19-2002, 07:30 PM

GMC is a rather good league.

When did the first leagues pop up? 2002? Seems to be a date when a lot of them did. I wonder how many actually stood the test of time?

bigphesta · 12-09-2005, 04:18 PM

CDL was my favorite. Best when Brian and Matt ran it, but still solid now. Had to step out due to time constraints but it was solid.

My league used to be good, but it's not anymore. Oh well.

The NAHHBL is still good, it has suffered some blows, but I think once we start moving into the fictional universe it will reinvigorate interest. That and the Yankees not winning for a change.

mine.....needs to hold onto GM's

but its' a solid group that's forming. Always a great thing to have

Owners include originals Andy Watkins, Bill Morin, Theresa Dehart, Brent Dehart and John Lill. Other owners include Iatric Stacy Bond who is commish of Boys of Summer, Mike Quinn who is also a commish I believe. Remaining owners are also quality owners; chefjimi Patricola, Arlene Cherry, Lee Geeker, Bill Hammond, Mark Benson, Mike Richer, Eric McCoy and Jim Carmichael. Its these owners that make MLBC an 'Elite league and a great deal of fun for all involved.

Barry Johnston MLBC

Saw this thread resurrected and couldn't help notice that in the 2 and a half years since I posted the above the MLBC has progressed up to 1950 with 10 of the above mentioned owners still in the league or on the waiting list to get back in. Cooool.....

This just in...FOBL still pwns your momma.

Subby · 12-20-2006, 02:38 PM

So, most of these elite leagues are now dead (or on ootp7, whatevs).

FOBL mounted your hot female cousin last week. WHILE SPORTING A PRETTY TIARA AND FUZZY SLIPPERS.

FOBL. Laughing at your insignificant startup league. Since 2001.

First leagues started in 2000 using OOTP2. The Computer Baseball League and Crackerjack are the only ones I know that still remain. Might be more, thou.

MLBC started in 2000 using OOTP2 with the 1905 season, we are now simming 1958 and still have many first season owners with us.
