I own GLORY DAYS OF BOXING and have enjoyed it very much and after listening to this I will be ordering LEGENDS OF BOXING. I was always a Strat-O-Matic player when it came to football, but with baseball it was PURSUE THE PENNANT for me and my friends. I was in several P.T.P. leagues back in the early 90s, where you'd have to 'mail' your lineup and starting rotation to your opponent for away games. People cheat with online play now, so I'm sure there was no shenanigans going on back then. TDalton or stu did either of you do this with actual snail mail back in the day? BTW.... The interview was GREAT, but any episode without Chad Olson sucks by default. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Looked like a game a fan could really sink their teeth into, a real baseball fan's game.

Holy $#!%! I'm listening to Charting the Territories and I hear Chad not just playing... but becoming the first person to win the trivia challenge! Nice work!
