In Progress, Revised

Posted on by

I’ve cut back on projects by picking the full season replays that I plan to actually play in the next 3 months or so.  This eliminated a few long dormant items on my list, allowing me to focus on what I’m already playing, and also allows me to narrow the choices on what else to play.

I’ve also separated the ‘short’ projects (less than a season, individual pitcher seasons, playoff runs) into their own list.

And of course there’s stuff like the heavyweight boxing tournament in Title Bout II and the Facebook Friends Wrestling Federation in Face to the Mat which are more like casual pick-up games that don’t require a schedule.

I hope to finally tally a game in both hockey and basketball fairly soon.

Stay tuned!

I have decided that these will be the projects that I will focus on for the time being.

Stay tuned!

July 14, 1979: Busch Nashville 420

Race results and current standings:

Richard Petty and Bobby Allison tangled early and often during the race, eventually causing a yellow flag during the waning laps, and taking Wayne Watercutter with them.  The result was Darrell Waltrip regaining the points lead.

Your race winner, Dale Earnhardt!

Next up: the Coca-Cola 500 @ Pocono Raceway.

Stay tuned!

While I Was Away

Posted on by

I’ve been on a board game kick for the past month, mainly because of a trip to Dice Tower West in Las Vegas, less than a week from the last table top sports game that I played.

That changes this week, of course, what with baseball’s Opening Day in a few days.

Plus I’ll probably get around to the NASCAR and SCRAM racing series that I have running.

And I’ll probably do a boxing match or two in the next week or so.

Stay tuned!
