Is there a FOF OOTP league?

[sachmo71]

Well, is there? And if so, how is it doing? How many years have been played? Is memebership constant, or fluctuating?

Do you mean an FOFC league? If so, there are several leagues that are largely made up of forum members (FOBL, CFBL, RWBL) although I'm not sure if any are 100% exclusive.

CFBL is fluctuating, not wholly FOFC, and is in 2007. Not doing badly, imho. O:-)

Depends on how you mean by "FOF".

The Real World Bsseball League (http://www.rwbl.ootp-leagues.com) is composed of mostly FOF members, although there is a mix of others originally from the OOTP leagues. I am a member of that one, and while you can usually count on maybe 1-2 owners every season or two to drop out, for the most part the membership is consistent. TRhere are still a ton of original owners in the league including myself, bsak, Neuqua, Swaggs, Raven, Hell Atlantic (left twice but back now), Maple Leafs, Sir Fozzie, and over the years we have added plenty of more owners who are now longtime staples of RWBL who weren't original (MrBug, Alan T, vtbub, radii, and many others). We are currently in the 2011 offseason and began with real rosters in 2002. Swaggs and bsak are our commissioners.

The Japanese Baseball League (http://www.jbl.ootp-leagues.com) also has a lot of FOF members, many of whom are the same as the RWBL. The difference is that this is a smaller, more intimate league based in Japan. It is just as solid as the RWBL, having been aorund just as long. Because of the shorter Japanese schedule, we are into the 2012 offseason, a year ahresad of the RWBL despite starting at about the same time. Marmel and Shorty are the commissioners of the JBL.

Both leagues have been running pretty much continuously since April-May, 2002.

There is also the FOBL and CFBL (I think), and the MLBE, but member sof those leagues will have to tell you about them.

The RWBL and JBL are a blast, though.

Yup. The Front Office Baseball League (http://www.thefobl.com) was the first league to spring up from the FOFC forum...to date, all of the current and past owners have been forum members (I think). I'm sure that Subby, one of our main publicists, will be happy to post something appropriately non-sequiterish a few posts from now.

Oh, the FOBL started up in April of 2001 and has been going strong, with relatively minor ownership fluctuation, through 12 fake seasons now.

Thanks, guys!

Don't forget about the UBL League (www.ootp5league.com), founded by Hell Atlantic and has lots of FOFers still involved (McKerney, Cuckoo, SF44, HA, cartman, Tobias, etc..)

In 2005 and I'm about to whoop Cuckoo's ass in the playoffs.

The FOBL will eat you league for brunch.

The runt of the litter is vtbub's eminently managed league MLBEuro (http://www.ronjuckett.com/mlbindex.htm) with members such as vtbub, Alan T, cartman, ahbrady, JeeberD, SirFozzie, Swaggs, McSweeney, bsak16, mckerney and me.

Unless of course you sandwich it in between your regular old breakfast and lunch. Nothing like three meals by noon! :)

SkyDog has obviously never been so fucked up on Bloody Marys that he dropped trow and took a leak in a Safeway parking lot at 1pm.

Bringing me back to my days in the ATL, where it was cool to eat eggs and get wasted...

It's the meal that's not quite breakfast, but not quite lunch.

Those be strong words.

Those be strong words. Well we usually eat little chocolate donuts for breakfast and babies for lunch, so that's really the only place we can fit other leagues in...
