400th Season for the GPL

Post by Buzzz »

figure the 500th Season is ~104 weeks away which is 2 human years away. Speaking of humans do you know that 2 people have been a GPL owner since its inception. Thier is also a current owner that joined at inception owning several teams over the seasons (Leonard do you lead SimDyn in teams owned? Your teams owned list is lengthy)

I probably do. I think teams owned includes the many teams that I have chaperoned. I probably should cut down a lot on the number of teams so that I could focus more on a few teams.

In 2013 the company moved me from a field job to an office job. What I'm sure they thought was a kindness I quickly found must be similar to a stretch in a penitentiary. Like, I can't spit on the ground anymore, I have to watch your language, I have to use the restroom all of the time and my cubicle was nowhere near a window. Anyway, between the long commute to downtown Houston and the new job its self, I didn't have time for much else. I left SD for three years (2014-2017).
I don't know what it is about this game but I missed playing on a daily basis along with my old job. This league has become one of my favorites (36-games per day and good owners make it so) along with the OCL and TCL. I have since rejoined those other two leagues.

In October of last year, a miracle occurred ... for a lot of reasons, they sent me back to the field!! I signed up for a team almost immediately.
I am currently in two Dynasty 3-GPD - OMG - It's like watching paint dry. I won't be in Dynasty leagues much longer.
I started playing SD in 2003.

Rich, you are 100% correct ... age is just a number. It seems other people worry about my age a lot more than I even think about it. Were you and Nuzzy the guys who thought up the 36/GPD concept???

Time flies.

I am kind of surprised this has been the only 36 GPD league ever. We havent had too much trouble staying filled.
