The Table Top Sports Games of Chris Saguisag
Count on me to pick a season where a third of the teams don’t have a logo.
No logo:
Baltimore Colts
Detroit Lions
Green Bay Packers
New York Yanks
Chicago Bears, Chicago Cardinals, Cleveland Browns
Los Angeles Rams. New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles
Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers, Washington Redskins
This is the first year of the NFL-AAFC merger, which expanded the NFL from 10 to 13 teams.
The new teams were the Colts, Browns, and 49ers.
When I get around to this replay, I may play out the entire league, or just the 49ers.
Stay tuned!
I want to play more tabletop baseball but I take too much time setting up the leagues in BallStat.
I should just handscore the games I play outside of the season replays.
But I use BallStat because my arthritis makes it difficult to handscore these games.
But then I handscore EVERY OTHER SPORT I PLAY ON THE TABLETOP BESIDES BASEBALL.
Not much of an excuse anymore, is it?
Onward and forward into the next year, there’s games to play!
Stay tuned!
I dug out my copies of Ultra Quick Football and Ultra Quick Soccer last week, which then gave me the idea to pick up Ultra Quick Baseball, since it’s supposed to be a way to quickly sim the rest of the games in a single team replay.
I’m going to try it with the 1921 and 1971 season replays that I’m currently playing (though stalled due to my own indifference toward what to play lately).
It’ll probably take as long to sim all the games up to the point where I am in those seasons as it took to play those games. I hope not.
Stay tuned!
Second Season Express still takes a while to play a game.
Not as long as a regular Second Season game, but still longer than other Express games from PLAAY.
Still, I may try to power through and finally finish the 1967 Denver Broncos season replay this week.
The plan is to finish some of these season replays that have been sitting idle under the full PLAAY games using the Express version, specifically this 1967 Broncos replay, perhaps the 1966-67 NHL replay, and maybe the 1974 John D’Acquisto season replay.
I may start a 1974 fictional Lacrosse season replay once Lacrosse Blast Express arrives.
Stay tuned!
Felt like playing Statis Pro Baseball today, so I dug it out and played the second game of the Giants’ 1979 season.
Final from Riverfront Stadium:
9th inning heroics by both teams, but the Reds end up winning on a wild pitch by Greg Minton.
Alas.
Eight years between games of this replay, so I don’t know if/when I’ll continue this one.
