1921: Giants Replay, Game 47

Posted on by

I should be further along in these replays, considering all the time spent at home.  It’s taken exactly 9 months to play this 4 game series between the Giants and Pirates.

Of course I had started this particular replay 7 years ago.  Never imagined I would get to the 100th anniversary of the season in question.

Final from Forbes Field:

Giants take 3 of 4 from the Pirates.

Next up: Giants come home to the Polo Grounds to face the Cincinnati Reds.

Stay tuned!

1960: Broncos Replay, Game 2

Posted on by

I played the second game of the season because it’s against my friend Lando’s team, the Bills.

I’ll play the first game next.

Final from War Memorial Stadium:

Since this is a quick play, game, there’s really no stats generated, except for TD passes/runs, XPs made, and FGs made.  So I’ll just keep things simple with the box scores.

Al Wilson released a free print-n-play football game.

Fast Drive Football is a drive-by-drive quick play game.  Each possession/drive is resolve with a single roll of the dice, using charts much like many PLAAY games like History Maker Baseball.

I downloaded the rules, charts, and all the seasons available (more added periodically), and printed the 1960, 1972, and 1981 seasons.

I’ll give it a spin soon, after I go over the rules.  If I have time I may replay the entire 1960 Broncos season, even though I’m going to start with their week 2 opponents as a ‘tutorial’.

And it may be obvious which teams seasons I’ll try to replay for the other two seasons that I printed out.

Stay tuned!
