[Yankee151]

He was the KFC colonels. And I love that background

 

[Gooksta]

billionaire owner of... who did gook own again in the UBL? anyway billionaire owner moved to Thailand after the UBL collapse and joined the asian league with bangkok before going broke shortly after 2033. Diego bought the team and moved them into the continental US during the WBL years but was convicted of murdering his longtime butler Larry. New owner from buffalo bought the team and moved them from Boston, hiring LC to run them into the ground

Louisville sluggers

 

[OU11]

Louisville sluggers

Idk why that just slipped my mind.

 

[Gooksta]

Idk why that just slipped my mind.

They didnt do much..

 

[Orlando]

That team name always killed me.

 

[Wendell Gee]

Was originally Colonels then Gooksta changed to Sluggers.

 

[Orlando]

I liked Colonels. I always thought Sluggers was babby gata's team.

 

[Wendell Gee]

I have some old UBL screencaps stored away on Photobucket. I could copy them to Imgur and share them out if anyone is interested in a 'History of the UBL' thread.

 

[Orlando]

I still have the UBL.

 

[Yankee151]

What was our last year, 2020? I need to make sure to write in me and JD going at it in the ELCS finals every year after that.

 

[Orlando]

That only happens if you write some lore on Madison folding.

 

[Yankee151]

Origami can occur if necessary

 

[Karl Hungus]

Seoul's owner invested early in a K-pop record label, and made billions enfeebling the minds of @Hachiko and others the world over. He also enjoyed baseball.

 

[Orlando]

Origami can occur if necessary

Its the only way to explain anyone but Madison in the ELCS for the entirety of the league.

 

[Hachiko]

Well? 나는 그것이 잘 보낸 좋은 투자라고 생각.

 

[GatorTD]

None of these stories involve hat surpluses.

 

[Yankee151]

The hat surplus is definitely real for Buffalo/Boston/Bangkok, as well as their Oceania team before Bangkok, Bora-Bora.

 

[OU11]

Put the constant arguing between GMs in there along with gooksta storming out of league meetings every couple of months.

 

[Yankee151]

I don't know if I'm man enough yet to write a live-action end to the UBL story with bickering like that, I know Dawg could though if he wanted to take a crack at it.

 

[Gooksta]

Injuries argghhhh

 

[GatorTD]

The death of the UBL was people playing other sports professionally.

 

[Yankee151]

Golf career is serious stuff

 

[GatorTD]

So is being a 6'0' 210lb Defensive end.

 

[Yankee151]

That was the UBL jumping the shark on me

 

[Wendell Gee]

Don't drag me into that muddy river without a submarine, a case of booze, and 12 million in unmarked bills.

 

[Yankee151]

That's how Pedro kicked the bucket, you know better than that!

 

[Wendell Gee]

That's how Pedro kicked the bucket, you know better than that!

Alas poor Pedro. That reminds me that I left a storyline hanging. I need to finish these papers first.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

GOAT

 

[Orlando]

Osick made that possible.

 

[OU11]

wish you'd step back from photobucket my friend

 

[jdlikewhoa]

What do you think this is, reddit gone wild?

 

[OU11]

WBL gone wild

[Yankee151]

Rough draft for 16 team Sub Saharan African Challenge League:

North African Teams were/are covered in the Mediterranean Premier League so they won't be involved in this one. JD gets a sub league all to himself. I have no idea what cities his minorleague teams are in so for now they won't be in this but @jdlikewhoa let me know if you want otherwise or plan on changing those teams

North Conference:

Coastal Division:
Abidjan Elefantes(CIV)
Accra Eagles(GHA)
Dakar Darkwings(SEN)
Lagos Green Wave(NGA)

Horn Division:
Mogadishu Wanderers(SOM)
Nairobi Crawlers(KEN)
Addis Adaba Alchemists(ETI)
Zanzibar Tidal Wave(TAN)

South Conference:

Maputo Mashers(MOZ)
Lusaka Zebras(ZAM)

Cape Division:
Ajax Cape Town Baseball(RSA)
False Bay Flying Whites(RSA)
Durban Deep Blues(RSA)
Joburg Jumping Jacks(RSA)

West Asia League to come next!

 

[Yankee151]

Western Asia. @Wolfman21 let me know if you don't want Kabul to be part of this league (Or Tehran, really). Excluding ex-CIS states which I will talk with @Wendell later

30 Team League. Syria overlaps with this and the MPB. Israel is not included because they are in the MPB, Same with Turkey. This league runs Late Fall to Early Spring, due to extreme temperatures throughout the region for the most part. Some nicknames will just be generated in game because you can tell the quality of them is rapidly falling as I do more

Gulf Conference:

Western Division:
Mecca(KSA)
Medina(KSA)
Beirut(LEB)
Riyadh(KSA)
Jeddah(KSA)

Central Division:
Gaza(PAL)
Aleppo(SYR)
Amman(JOR)
Muscat(OMA)
Sanaa(YEM)

Eastern Division:
Abu Dhabi(UAE)
Dubai(UAE)
Bahrain(BAR)
Doha(QAT)
Kuwait City(KUW)

Eastern Conference:

Western Division:
Baghdad Butchers(IRQ)
Mosul Mashers(IRQ)
Tehran Terrorists(IRA)
Shiraz Pineapples(IRA)
Kabul Bulls @Wolfman21(AFG)

Central Division:
Lahore Waves(PAK)
Faisalabad Kites(PAK)
Kandahar Kings(PAK)
Kathmandu Titans(NEP)
Lhasa Peace(TIB)

India Division:
New Delhi Dominators(IND)
Mumbai Jam(IND)
Calcutta Dinosaurs(IND)
Dhaka Victory(BAN)
Bangalore Lions(IND)

China will probably get its own league, and the rest of east Asia another huge league split between Japan/Korea/Taiwan/Phillipines in one conference and then places like Singapore, Malaysia etc in another. May change this though, dunno.

 

[Wolfman21]

I don't know wtf is going on so i'll just give you an answer. Yes.

 

[Yankee151]

You backed the right horse on this one I promise

 

[Wolfman21]

do i have to do anything in this league? I really am confused. I just said yes to placate the Kabul masses who are screaming into my window.

 

[Yankee151]

This is a pre-WBL league to bridge the 15yearish gap from the old league to the new one. I'm making leagues for all the teams (should they choose, it's perfectly fine to be a brand new team with no history) so I was just asking if you wanted to be a part of that or not. You can see the other leagues I posted in this thread and also the Mediterranean one in my team thread. Just story immersion stuff, nothing required on your part other than a yes or no

 

[Wolfman21]

Then yes.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

I like the shoutie. I probably should look at changing my minor league teams but my immersion is only about 65/80 right now.

 

[Karl Hungus]

There needs to be a story line about how Zach Mettenberger fathered DLS while on spring break in Cancun.

 

[Yankee151]

Despite political and ethnic tensions, the countries of this region were able to unite and have peace over a simple game of baseball, becoming a powerhouse of churning out future WBL talent.

[Yankee151]

I gotta think about the USA one too, I feel like that one is pretty difficult because we haven't answered how the UBL folded yet. I'll think upon it

 

[Wendell Gee]

You got this.
