In 5th and 6th grade me and my buddy used to spend hours a day recreating MLB playing APBA. But instead of ever playing each other we would each simulate a league and then play each other in the world series. I can remember the '84 or '85 season we both had our favorite players (who were not stars at all) His was Howard Johnson of the Tigers and mine was David Anderson of the Dodgers. It was amazing how these mediocore players led the league in basically everything. And when one of us was playing with their favorite team you always knew they were "effecting the outcome", but you never really wanted to know. (Kind of like your college roommate masturbating in the shower
) re-rolls, you bet all the time!
