The OCHO - A real player league

phenom · 11-17-2005, 11:03 PM

I'm looking for two owners - one each for Toronto and Minnesota. Toronto won their division in 2005; Minnesota did not.

Nevertheless, they've become bastard children in this fine league, and since the Giants just won it all behind a triple crown season from Barry Bonds, we're all just ITCHING to get free agency rolling in 2006.

I just rolled over to the new season, and FA days 1-3 are scheduled for this Saturday night around 9pm ET, and every night thereafter for about five days until it's done. Then, the rest of the offseason stuff goes on, but you'll be in by then, so no use for details here.

We've got no cap, we've got minor league FA off until the start of the 2007 season (for various reasons - ugh), and we've got an active owner base already.

Be sure to check the website at www.otblocho.com and drudge around the forums a little for any other information.

Most importantly, if you're interested in taking over either of those two teams, let me know like YESTERDAY so we can move on with the offseason. I've got 27 wannabe champions who are chomping at the bit to get moving.

PM me here or email me at phenom1984 at that gmail thing.

HURRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I gotta say, I really enjoy OCHO a lot. Mike does a great job of keeping things moving and running the sims on time an all that cool stuff. There's a lot of really cool characters in the league, too.

It looks like a very well run and active league. I hope you fill the vacancies soon. Goodluck!
