The rivalry idea is great.

Thirded on the rivalry idea
I would like expensive whiskey.

BREAKING: Oxnard OOTP team relocating to Saginaw, MI.
(Yes, there really is a Saginaw Sugar Beets -- a new summer league team. Sugar beets are also a popular crop in mid-Michigan.

For those who have enjoyed this... OOTP 18 is in the low tier ($1+) right now as part of the current Humble Bundle. (with Rebuild 3 and Simple Planes). If you don't know Humble Bundle, you get big discounts on games (slightly out of date), ebooks (usually tech), and such. It is a tiered pay what you want model with supports a charity. Right now it is Doctor's without Borders.

Kinda like how the middle magazine always contained the hairiest, beyond target demographic women on the planet?

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2017 - Offseason
Bumping to wrap up a few things before closing out this year's business.
What do we think about consolidating our departing players on one other team? Got a few responses, but the discussion kind of tailed off. If we do so, what would be the best place?
- A team in the same division, to establish a regular rivalry
- Another division in the same conference, so they can compete on their own while still playing each other occasionally
- The other conference (Shrew), which would mean rare regular-season meetings, but more drama if they meet in the World Series
I was also thinking about moving a few other players to the hypothetical second team, to balance things out and give everyone more playing time. Here's who I was thinking of moving:
- rass or Giff
- P.D.X.
- Rams Fanny
- Rush or chedda
If you don't want to change teams, or aren't on this list and want to move, let me know. The spare spots on the teams would be filled out with other Swampers.
Let me know what you think.

I'd say same conference different division.
Hold on, I'm trying to see if Jack London ever gets this fire built or not.

If moved, I will fucking haunt you.

I want same division so I can crush you as many times as possible.

Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2017 - Offseason
Maybe the second team would be interested in hiring the free agent former Sports Frogs.

This is my choice. I’ll move squads and positions, if needed.

That's the idea. All of the guys that didn't get re-signed, plus a few more to round things out.

My depression has been kicking my ass all week. Seeing this thread bumped legitimately made my morning better.
My avatar corresponds on my place in the Swamp posting list with the all-time Home Run list. Number 45 is Paul Konerko with 439.
Re: Swamp Out of the Park Baseball 2017 - Offseason
I want to know where I sign.

Me too. And, I want more money than Duff gets.
