Welcome to the FOOL Society! The most unique online baseball experience ever!
We are now a trio of extremely fast paced OOTP baseball leagues.

First there was the FOOL! 70 seasons and counting! A 12 team league fictional league played in OOTP 9. This league is currently full.

Then there was FOOL-X. A 12 team fictional league played in OOTP X. Already 9 seasons deep utilizing some advanced X features including StatsLab. We still have 11 or 12 original owners. This league is currently full.

Our newest league is FOOL-H which is a OOTP X league that will recreate history. Starting in 1901, FOOL-H uses real players in an alternate universe using the same proven system that has made the FOOL franchise one of the most successful in fantasy sports league history.

Why are fast sims better?
Simple. Have you ever wanted to see a player that you drafted get elected into the hall of fame? IT HAPPENS!!! These players are nothing but thousands and thousands of computer calculations bouncing around inside the little box on your desk until it spews out statistics saying whether or not they are safe or out…that is true, but when you see that pixilated character grow, succeed, provide you with weeks of hope and joy, and eventually heartbreak as they age and grow weaker, there is a certain amount of pride to see him called one of the best ever! OK…I may be overly dramatic…but trust me…it effin rocks!
How many leagues have their year end awards named after actual players in the league! The Prado and Tanaka awards are given out to the best pitchers and hitters each year. To some they are just names, but to the veteran gms (and there are many of them) who had to face them in the deciding game of the Championship final, those names MEAN something!
Perhaps in the next 60 seasons, there will be even better players to come along…and we will be faced with the idea to rename the awards…it may happen….we are a progressive league and when something needs to be improved, it gets done!
That said…after 66+ seasons we have faced every glitch known to man, seen every loophole exploited and have always been willing to alter a rule, change a setting, and fiddle around to make things JUST right…There is a reason we have only had 1 owner change since FOOL-X launched…it’s because the league is damn fun, and damn challenging!
That’s why we are starting up the 3rd league. It’s destined to succeed.

So we are recruiting for FOOL-H…Want to relive history but not wanting to wait 20yrs to do it? Check out our forums. We are run out of the forums, snoop around in there to learn more about how we run. Better yet join us live and get a taste of the atmosphere of the league while reading Alan’s exciting playoff summaries posted as the games are being run…we had a couple of classic sudden death playoff battles this year that he suspensfully tortured those watching with he game stories!!!! More then one computer had the refresh key burned out!

Fast or slow, these leagues still rank among the best. We run on a schedule, and NEVER miss a sim. We have had to fall back on contingency plans to keep the league going when real life got in the way, but we have the people that are able and willing to step up and do that…The league is uber-stable and will be around long after OOTP-XX is released.

The leagues can be overwhelming, but once you get 3 seasons under your belt and learn the system, you’ll never be able to play a regularly paced league again.
