OTBL Opening

holyroller · 09-15-2004, 09:18 PM

The OTBL, about to start its eighth season, is in need of an owner for the Austin Middle Managers and if you are worthy of consideration, the team could be yours!

This is a very serious league so only truly 3l33t players will be considered for the slot. That means no n00bs, cheaters, morons or Republicans (but I repeat myself lol). I'm going to leave it to the 3l33t of the 3l33t, MannyTrillo to sort through the various candidates and select the recipient of the franchise.

Please post your desire to join in this thread and provide your well thought out and detailed reasons why you should be given a spot in the most 3l33t league in all of the OOTP universe.

No, we decided that we were going to become more people friendly. Been getting some negative feedback from the peons lately. It's the least we can do.

I'd just like to note that we especially love groveling.

Groveling will get you places.

jgross68 · 09-15-2004, 09:38 PM

Does this league use the DH?

matskralc · 09-15-2004, 09:38 PM

I should be given a team in the OTBL because I'll trade all my star SPECTS to Manny for all his Timmy Pancoasts and William Gishes.

twins15 · 09-15-2004, 10:24 PM

I'll take them, but only if I can use a left-handed catcher.

rem · 09-15-2004, 10:31 PM

What if MannyTrillo holds a grudge?

Jeremy Weimer · 09-15-2004, 11:16 PM

I nominate myself for the open team because umm...

I don't have a good reason.

rem · 09-15-2004, 11:20 PM

Aside from Hollyroller, I've posted more in this thread then anyone else. That qualifies me.

I have thoroughly reviewed your application, and though it is fundamentally sound it lacks a certain je ne sais quoi that we look for in the OTBL. Better luck next time!

I'm sorry, but this appeal is lacking... let's just say pizzazz. It just doesn't make me want to leap up out of my chair and shout, "Hot damn!", you know what I mean? I encourage you to continue to monitor the boards for future OTBL openings!

rem · 09-15-2004, 11:28 PM

If your having a hard time keeping your league full, this guy can help.

Well I wouldn't want to be in a league were the Commish cheats anyways.

Jeremy Weimer · 09-16-2004, 12:05 AM

Son of a bitch, I didn't get in.

KennyW · 09-16-2004, 12:09 AM

I'd like to get into another online league. As you know I am the quarterback for the Bartlett High Panthers so right now my time is limited but after the season I will have lots of time for OOTP. I am a senior and will hopefully be going to Tennessee on full scholarship but in the meantime, between chasing bettys and going to parties, I have time for an online league.
I wanted to get into one of Cooley's cool leagues since he volunteered to by beer for me and the guys on the team after our game vs. Memphis Central (I'm still holding you to that Cooley!!) but I think your league looks pretty cool too. Just let me know.
