Classic Baseball Union - For big boys and tough girls

Full League Name (Initials):The Classic Baseball Union (CBU)
Main URL: Classic Baseball Union
Reports URL: BNN Home Page
Boards URL: CBU Forum - Index
Commissioner(s) OOTP Forum Username(s): JWay
Email Address: gillis27@gmail.com
OOTP Version: OOTP11
Game Needed: Required
Players: 95+% fictional, MLB defectors occurred.
# of Teams: 20

League Time Per Sim: 1 week in season, varies in off season.
First Season: 2009

Special Rules & Settings: Pretty standard OOTP fictional league created in OOTP X, we run a story that has us competing with MLB, as we have locked out steroids, etc. Thus some approved players who don't get contracts in the MLB off season, can defect to CBU.

Currently Available Teams: Louisville Thoroughbreds, Gotham Gargoyles

What you can do, move your team anywhere. What you cannot do have a thin skin. Young or old, guy or girl, we have a lot of good banter on the forum.

Since this league will run forever, you might as well get in on it now.

If you don't...you'll regret it for at least 8 minutes. And I won't give you those minutes back.

This is a pretty good league. The commish only screws up a few times.

Actually, it's a really good league. JWay does a great job as commissioner.

Excellent league, excellent owners and pretty stable, usually not many vacancies.

Definite thumbs up.

Play the game in windows, keep the 350 pg. game guide open as well. It will be easier to learn the game that way.

Akron was scooped up by one lucky man. Orlando and Indianapolis are still available!

Happy to see you guys full, looks like a good setup. Put me on the list for when you switch over to v12 (assuming you do at some point). Haven't been in a league for a few years but looking to get back into it with the new version.

We're not switching to OOTP12 yet, or anytime soon (beta hasn't even started yet (sigh)) so in the meantime, we're looking to fill Colorado!

Colorado Team Page

We're just headed into our next offseason, there is some good chances there's going to be some good free agents lying around.

Oshawa is still very available, only one owner, lightly used, still has the new car smell!

I recommend against this league. I was just in it and had to quit. It's your worst redneck nightmare. Replete with the usual gay jokes, redneck banter, jokes about bestiality and lesbians, etc.

Join only if youre one of these fat, dumb american rednecks that get off on that type of thing. If you want an intelligent league with considerate owners, this league is not the one.

Some of the owners in the league are intelligent individuals but unfortunately theyre overshadowed by [snip].

I am still learning the game, but this made me want to join. Unfortunately, I would not be very good at the game part. I would kill on the forums, though. Can I get forum access for the banter?

Yeah see I knew it. I knew it would draw in tons of people from the underclasses. The ignorant rednecks will love it. The league should experience unprecedented amounts of success now. This will be the best advertising the league has ever seen.

No. Intelligent, thoughtful minds will find it disgusting, crude, and ugly. But the ignorant will revel in it as the [snip] all over the league and themselves.

I was in the league from the start and only resigned recently due to time constraints. During my whole time as a manager I never had any issues with the way the league was run and what went on in the forums.

Actually I kind of miss my team.
