Probably a stupid question but since I'm new here I'll ask anyway. I love 1986 but I also loved the 80's as a whole for baseball. Do they ever have any other 1980's season available for league play?

1986 is the only single season 80s player set. There is also the "Back to the 80s" mystery card game:

and it still gets a decent amount of play. I'd LOVE to see a single season from about '78 or so, since that was my sweet spot for being a rabid young fan and really following the game and every box score.

Come on Bernie, give us the 82 season! It's the last time the Brewers were in the Word Series!

I would love either of those season you mentioned, 78 or 82. I would probably prefer 1982 between the two but I would play either for sure.

Yes, please. The '78 season was fantastic. I wouldn't mind the '75 season, either.

Yeah this.

Or, '81 and everyone plays 111 games.

1985 or 1987

would also settle for early 90's 90-93

Agreed, I just want more seasons of pre-steroid stat baseball. I will just keep playing 1986 I guess for now. But I hope we get at least one other option or maybe an option of the month or something.

Once again I'm new here but I am already so addicted I want more options lol

You should give "Back to the 80s" mystery card game a try.

Do the Back to the 80s leagues fill in a reasonable time, been away for a little while and 69 takes a long time .... to ...........fill.

by **MrHacktastic** » Wed Dec 14, 2011 1:12 pm

I like having a particular season to play and although I haven't tried the Back to the 80's league I'm not fond of the idea so I probably won't. I have heard good things about it so far, I just don't like the format.
