Need Owners - Boards

The BBOTB 1901 - 2024 needs 1 owner. We are currently Drafting Franchises for the upcoming season. We use a variety of rules designed to level the playing fields for the "Lesser Franchises", with Budget adjustments. We also use historically accurate Ballpark options for each franchise. If you like Budget, and you want to compete with best managers on PC, this league is for you.
