People who are younger than OOTP have no idea what a ZIP disk is.

I started playing board baseball games (Sherco). Back then, I kept all the stats in notebooks by hand before computers. My wife still gives me crap about that. I started looking for a computer baseball game that I didn't have to bat or pitch because those games stat wise were unrealistic. Then I found OOPT 6. Now I don't have to, to quote Rogers Hornsby, "Stare out the window and wait for spring", because it's always baseball season at my house!

I got Sherco in early 80s, i think. I wore out the out field from moving the players. I also started with the spinner baseball game. Wore out the rivets holding the spinner in place. Had to MacGiver it to keep playing.

I was 14 when OOTP1 came out, so still pretty young, but I am happy to see that there are at least a few younger people on here. I sometimes wonder if I'm the only one in my thirties or younger that still likes baseball

By my use of lowkey language, ability to actually still play baseball, my affinity for thinking the 2006 World Series and 2010 World Series were actually conspiracy plots against the Tigers and the fact that my dad tried out for the tigers in 84' and was cut as a non-roster invitee during spring training.
I'm pretty sure it's safe to assume I am younger than OOTP.

Warren Spahn was still pitching
when I was born.
The Cuba embargo began almost a month later. Wilt Chamberlain hadn't yet scored 100 points in a game. Bob Dylan hadn't yet released his first album. Wal-Mart hadn't opened...anywhere. JFK was President. Marilyn Monroe was still alive. Johnny Carson wasn't on the Tonight Show. We still had Dick Nixon to "kick around." Roger Clemens wasn't going to be born for 7 months. The Navy SEALS (God bless 'em all) were activated 3 days before I was. Good Lord, I'm old!
