Baseball for Indoor People
In my day, there were no “indoor children.” We went outside and played with our friends. Before you say “oh, not all kids are athletic,” know that there was no need to be. If you couldn’t run, you were probably good at figuring out how to more efficiently look for frogs. But if you were a sore loser, there wasn’t much that could help you. We didn’t read about baseball on the computer, we played it. Well, perhaps a modified version with our own made up rules but we were getting out.
My somewhat old fashioned mind is just blown away with the concept of people and their Fantasy Baseball Leagues. But come to find out, there are people that are more serious about it then they are, it seems, about the real games. I never understood it thoroughly until I read up on it on FantasySportsProphet.com (plus being schooled for my ignorance by an old coworker.)
You start with making your draft picks at the beginning of the season:
Then you go through the whole entire season and your team wins or loses based on how the real players do that year. I always wondered what the rules are. We made up our own baseball rules, so wouldn’t that be what is happening here? Apparently, you take the stats of the players you pick from real life. For example, if a real player you chose for your team gets three runs in their game with Team X, they have three runs on your team. But the other teammates on your team could be all spread out on different real baseball teams throughout the league, and you need to just incorporate all those stats.
The software has all sorts of predictive features to help you pick and manage your roster, injury reports and more. The pay off for using the intuitive software is the strong likelihood that you will win your league. You can access it right from the web form anywhere at all.
Right now, there is a coupon for readers who would like to try it. Coupon code BMC200 gets you $10.00 off the membership fee.
As for me, I am always a bit behind the curve and will probably not be doing this sort of thing until 2035. I can tell you my nephew, who is actually only 15 years my junior probably already is a member. Maybe by then, they will come out with a version with familiar players for people who are afraid of change. Like Ty Cobb or maybe Reggie Jackson if you really are feeling contemporary.
