Longball in 1978 was really the first game that I had where I was interested in playing out careers and seasons. It also planted the seed for what would become a super stat geek in myself. Id played the Superstar Baseball (SI I think) once in awhile with a friend (I was only 9 years old he was 12) but it was only one game at a time and we didnt keep track of anything. Longball was awesome, but I can honestly say that Ive never talked to anyone that has ever heard of it. Most talk about APBA or Strat-o-Matic (which I graduated up to after Longball).

It's like saying when you try to extrapolate the end of the universe, you say, if the universe is indeed infinite, then how - what does that mean? How far is all the way, and then if it stops, what's stopping it, and what's behind what's stopping it? So, what's the end, you know, is my question to you.
