Historical Leagues

PerfectMisnomer · 02-22-2006, 09:19 PM

Are there any still running? I'm talking pre-1970, and I was just checking for Summer of '49 but it appears it closed

. I used to love checking up there randomly a while back. Do many people not like online historical leagues?

Awesome, thanks. I also see APLB out there, but is everyone not in the historical mood? Seems to be 10x as many fictional/real player leagues than historical.

To join So'49, you must agree to the following rule:

(1) You will not make any trades with the St. Louis Cardinals.

If you agree to this, I will not black ball your entry into the league.

MLBCentury is still alive and kicking. We are simming 1951 right now, started in 1905 with OOTP2.

I am in several Historical leagues and is pretty much all I like to participate in. Check my signature, they are all Historical leagues that are pre-1970 except NARBL which is in the 70's. If you want links or info on any, let me know.

What is the UBL? I'm assuming it's a PCL league since you have Hollywood, so I'd love a closer look.

Here is the link for UBL. It is a league that injected Negro League and PCL players into the league up until just recently. If interested, contact the commish as we seem to have an opening every so often.

It consists of major league teams, PCL teams and Negro League teams.

TRIOLA!

BTW, the Mid-Century Baseball League is another good historical entry, now just beginning its second season:

Yes, it's been on its deathbed a couple of times but it keeps bouncing back.
