Greetings OOTPers! Many of you may have already heard of the
Monty Brewster Baseball Association, but some of you may have not heard of us. I'll give you a little history.
We've been around for 21 full simmed season now, and we're just starting the offseason for our 22nd season. We're finishing off this offseason in OOTP6.5, and then we'll be making the perilous leap (look mom, no hands!) into OOTP:2006 and all of its splendor.
We're a fictional league, with a lot of detail and participation. We do have a full CATO history, which we'll carry over and have as a resource.
Obviously some things will change as we move to 2006, but we'll still keep our elaborate Participation Point system, creativity, high forum activity, general goofiness, and cool programs such as Custom Amateurs, our feeder league (All American Baseball Association), and a prospect development league (Florida Prospect Developmental League). We also have been doing defectors from the Major Leagues (MLB) and will continue to do so, but OOTP 2006 is cool so the majors will actually be simmed in conjunction with the league.
We're looking for someone who has these traits and desires for an online league experience:
1) Someone who is able to be on the forums a lot. If you have a desk job, and need a diversion throughout the day, the MBBA is for you. If you rarely come on line, and rarely check the forums, it's not. If you can't check the forums at least 2x a day, the MBBA probably isn't the league for you.
2) Someone who is creative and likes to write. This is a WRITING league. If you don't like to write, then the MBBA isn't for you. If you have been craving an online league that has 24 active participants who spend time writing articles both on their team and the league in general, bringing the league to life, look no further.
3) Someone who is really, really fanatical about this stuff. Hey, it's not for everyone. We're a bunch of nutjobs when it comes down to it. But we have a good time.
Does this sound like exactly what you're looking for? Then don't be shy, and don't waste another minute waiting for the right league to come around. Come talk to us:

Instructions to Apply for Team Ownership in the MBBA
We currently have one team open, I won't say which one. We might have more opportunities for people to get involved in the alternate leagues that will be associated in our universe. Really I'm looking for one person to get involved, but if I get 50, then I'll find something for each and every one of you.
Hope to hear from you soon!
