What If Sports league

So I recently discovered this site:  http://www.whatifsports.com.

I'm a late-comer, as it has been around since 1999.  It's a simulation league that allows you to draft a team of players from the 1880's to the 2007 season, and then play against other people's teams.  It's a lot of fun and addictive as hell.

They have an exhibition season of ten games that is free and a full 162 game season with more options for $12.  I've played about ten exhibition seasons, and they're great.

I also am just finishing up my first full season, and believe me it is well worth the 12 bucks.  There are twenty-four teams separated into two leagues, and six divisions.  The six division winners get the added bonus of playoff games.

I just qualified for the playoffs with a team featuring a 3-4 of 1922 Ruth, 1960 Mantle, and 1983 Goose pitching the 8th inning for me (just to name some Yankees on my team).

I'm bothering to post all this because in about two weeks I'm going to play another full season ( did I mention It's addictive?), and there's the options to invite others.  So I thought why not throw it out to all the P.A. baseball fanatics out there and see if anybody's interested.

And just so you know, I'm in no way associated with this site.  I read about it in a Bill Simmons column ( he's an avid player ).

So if anybody's interested, I 'd suggest to try it out for free and see if it's for you, and if you're interested let me know and I can send you an invite. 

Here's the link again:   http://www.whatifsports.com

Very cool link!

I took the liberty of recreating this fanpost over at Bleed Cubbie Blue, complete with an all-time Cubs team. You can't go wrong with the Tinkers-Evers-Chance double-play combo combined with pitching from Mordecai Brown, Maddux, Sutcliffe, etc. :)

There is no place like Nebraska - Go Huskers!
