1989 Offseason Thread (Next Sim: Friday)

Alan T · 12-22-2008, 05:19 PM

Just a FYI, I heard from multiple people who couldn't get back in time to get an export up due to my mistakes with the file last night. We are on a delayed schedule this week due to the holidays so it won't hurt too much.

Tuesday night we will sim up until the start of Free agency and then taking off two days for Christmas.

Alan T · 12-23-2008, 09:53 AM

Bump to go with thread title change so there is no confusion.

Alan T · 12-23-2008, 09:03 PM

Ok, sim time. Got to make it fast tonight

Alan T · 12-23-2008, 09:05 PM

No exports from New York, Napa Valley and Wyoming

Wow. EXCELLENT signings! I didn't think everyone would go for the offers. Had to let Simons go, but I think I've set us up for at least one more run.

Alan T · 12-23-2008, 09:32 PM

New file is up! No sims the next two nights. I hope everyone has a very happy holidays.

Friday 10pm ET we will have free agency day #1. Remember no minor league contract offers allowed on Friday's sim.

TimGuru · 12-25-2008, 11:06 AM

I've let Alan and the BoD know that I am stepping down from my team and the BoD effective immediately. This is due to a tail-off in my interest in OOTP in general and the time strain that FOOL places on me, especially on Fridays; my wife has gotten tired of me making us late for dinner plans because I need to set up my team for a half hour when I get in from my commute, and then being antsy to get home for the sim.

I've enjoyed FOOL and have gotten to know a few of you in PM and find the group to be one of the finer bunches put together for online OOTP play. Fare well, have fun, I'll be around the forums here and there to see whats going on.
