NGBL Seeking Exceptional GM for Exceptional Team

pallison14 · 05-21-2006, 02:35 PM

After 4 long years and 15 seasons at the helm of the Pittsburgh Pirates, I've elected to step down. The league is a challenging, often opinionated, and great great fun. Unfortunately, I no long have the time and effort required.

The Pittsburgh Pirates are the New York Yankees of the NGBL. The've won the last 3 World Series, and have missed the playoffs just 3 times in the last 15 years. They're supremely talented, with young perrenial All-Stars at many positions.

As this is my league, and my team, I'll be looking for the right candidate. You should be an experienced online player, and be willing to deal with a couple of "gotchas" when taking the team.

About the League
The "Next Generation Baseball League" (NGBL) was formed under the concept of owners picking current teams and then simulating 10 years into the future to give the league a fictional feel, yet also preserving the MLB roots. Nearly four calendar years and 16 seasons have now passed since the inception of the league and the fictional players are almost in full swing giving the league it's own unique personality. We have since expanded to 32 teams and continue to make changes to improve the league. The league features an incredibly active ownership base that is serious about baseball, but also not afraid to let loose and have alot of fun.

League Features:
- League established August, 2002

- Currently Running OOTP 6.12

- Heavily customized website (http://nexgenbaseball.com) that takes BOSI v2x to the extreme

- Marketing revenue split equally among the leagues 32 teams

- Coaches / Scouts turned to OFF.

- RFA: All players 3.0 stars or greater with minimal loyalty (4.5 stars for MRs) will be exposed to a "restricted free agency" type process. These players will be exposed to open bidding, but the current team will also be given a chance to match the winning contract. For anyone tired of leagues that don't have elite players hitting the market should find this very appealing.

- Australian Fall League (AFL): This league gives teams a chance to send their prospects to play baseball in the fall. Teams are eligible to earn points to help "fill out" their player's ratings.

- United Asian League (UAL): The NGBL has come to an agreement with the United Asian League. This agreement will allow a limited number of UAL players a chance to play in the NGBL. All UAL Free Agents with a minimal loyalty will be permitted to negotiate with NGBL ballclubs. If the NGBL ballclub submits an offer greater than a UAL ballclub, the player sticks in the NGBL.
