Replay Review

Posted on by

I looked over what I had been playing last year, and I found a couple of replays that I started but never continued, like the 1936 World Series.

I’ll get to that one soon.  Heck, I set up a Google Sheet to replay the New Giants 1936 season before I realized that I had played game one of the World Series.  So I may do both, backwards, finishing the 1936 World Series and then replaying the Giants 1936 season.

As if I didn’t have enough replays started already.

Incidentally, I also set up the San Francisco Giants 1980 season replay in Google Sheets as well.  For reasons.

Stay tuned!

’21 vs. ’71

Posted on by

I have now played more games (45) in my 1971 San Francisco Giants replay than I’ve played games (44) in my 1921 New York Giants.

I started the 1921 replay 7 years ago.

I started the 1971 replay 2 years ago.

My goal is to finish one of these replays by the end of the year, 50 or 100 years after the given season.

I’ll consider it a bonus if I can finish both replays.

Stay tuned!

1971: Giants Replay, Games 38-40

Posted on by

When I have time, I’ll play an entire series and post about it.

Though it was about 6 days between playing the first two games.

Welcome to the friendly confines of Wrigley Field!

Finals scores, Games 38-40:

The Cubs sweep the Giants in 3 games at home.

Next up: The Giants travel to Houston for a visit to the Astrodome.

Stay tuned!

Fifty and A Hundred

Posted on by

It just occurred to me that my two current Giants season replays are 1971 and 1921.

Fifty and one hundred years ago, and 50 years apart.

Much like the 1967 and 1917 replays, one of which I had finished (1967) and the other (1917), well, I still have over 1200 games to go…

But I think it’s possible to finish one or maybe both ’71 and ’21 replays by year’s end, IF I commit to playing both more often.

We’ll see how it goes.

Stay tuned!
