I loved Micro League baseball....When I was in High School I actually talked to some person at Micro League, over the phone a number of times, and got an address to send him my ideas for a Micro League Football game. They eventually came out with a football game but it wasn't what I had envisioned....But I was a teenager and had no clue the limitations of the computers at that time, and I made a list that was like 10 pages long..LMAO...

Would love to see your notes... lol. You could create entire teams in under an hour on that game. On the Baseball game I always played a legends season. Man I'm gonna have to see if i can download that game from somewhere

I wish I had saved the notes; they would be fun to read now and I would definitely share them on this site.

Yeah, they would make for a good blog. I bet a lot of the problems you had with that game is the same we have with current games.

I remember playing a football game on my dad's Intelivision. I think there may of been 8 people on each side of the ball.

He also had a little handheld football game. I seen one of the exact same units on Pawn Stars a couple of years ago. I would play the hell out of that thing on long trips. All it had was dots. I bet he still has it. I might be digging through their attic this weekend.

I had one of those hand held "dot" football games...LED lights or whatever they were...I believe at some point they came out with a primitive digital hand held football game with like a grey screen and square pixel football figures running across the screen..lol...fun stuff at the time...

In the late 80s early 90s Bo Jackson had a handheld that was large and you could flip it. One side was Football one side was baseball. I think I wore out two of those.

It's crazy now seeing that other people were playing the same obscure games I was playing back in the day. I never even showed my friends any of the computer games like Front Page Sports. I knew they wouldn't understand. lol
