After graduating high school in 84 and getting married a year later my playing time dwindled until getting back into sims on the computer in the early 90's. I miss the old APBA days and rolling the dice praying for 66..LOL. I enjoyed Strat-O-Matic football for a while and have probably played probably 90 percent of all sports sims made. I have yet to get back into baseball sims after losing my love for the game after the strike. I still play fantasy and check out boxscores but am nowhere near the kind of fanatic that I used to be. Maybe I just need to try OOTP to rekindle the fever? Outside of our beloved boxing,I enjoy NFL(Lifelong Dallas Cowboy fan),NBA and college football and basketball(WVU Mountaineers).

APBA baseball and football were great, and I remember going for the 11,33 & 66 rolls! I still enjoy Strat-o-Matic baseball, but agree regarding the baseball strike. I haven't been to a game since, though I follow the Orioles. Maybe OOTP is the ticket for several of us?
