Century League Redux

Time for me to plan out another Simulated Baseball League that will get maybe 4-5 games played and then shelved in favor of all the other simulations I’m trying to finish!

This time I’m going to revisit the Century League cards that I believe I purchased along with the original History Maker Baseball Game back in 2013.

I’ll resort the ‘drafted’ teams that I created back into the original teams and form a league from that.

Team names will be figured out later, though I’m open to suggestions.  Maybe build on the Galactic Football League and name them after Star Wars planets/animals, or go traditional and pick cities/mascots that actually exist.

We’ll see where this goes.

Stay tuned!

New Plan

I want to take a chunk out of all the baseball replays I’m currently running, so I’m going to try to play one game a night for as long as I can do that.

If I were more focused last year I would have finished at least one of these replays.

I have about 3 where I’m close to 40-50 games in, so I’ll start there, though I think I may start the 1986 dual replay that I’ve been itching to play, tonight.

Stay tuned!

1960 SCRAM Series, Revised

I’ve expanded the 1960 SCRAM Racing Series from 19 races to 29 races, doubling up on the non-road course tracks, and adding PLAAY.com sponsorship to the event names.

My plans are to run this and two other racing series (1984 NASCAR, 2016 SCRAM) in my unscheduled sports gaming replay rotation, which seems to have settled on baseball (1921/1971 Giants), soccer (2011-12 Spurs), auto racing, and hockey (1966-67 Maple Leafs).  I don’t have the patience or interest in basketball or football at the moment, but that may change as the year goes on.

I may even dip into a few more neglected games/replays.

Stay tuned!

1984: Daytona

Welcome to the 1984 NASCAR Winston Cup Season!

February 19, 1984: Daytona 500 @ Daytona International Speedway. 

Race results and current standings:

Real-life winner of this race was Cale Yarborough, his 2nd consecutive and 4th overall.

Your race winner, Richard Petty!

This would have been his 8th Daytona 500 win.  His last 500 win (#7) was in 1981.

Next: the Miller High Life 400 @ Richmond Fairgrounds Raceway.

Stay tuned!
