    Well I am up for any older friends that love to play the show. I'm on Xbox but feel free to add me and maybe we can play some fun games.

    Me and Blind_Bleeder just played. It was fun, he beat me 1-0. Pitchers duel.

    That was quite the nail-biter!!!! I got lucky on that HR...if I wouldn't have had that, I would have lost for sure!

    Just curious because I've been retired since 2016 and play the show quite a bit. I know of a couple "old guys" that play and was wondering how many are really out there.

    I'm "only" 48, but same circumstances as a lot of us Gen X'ers.
    Played everything since the Atari 2600 and up (and still had time for real baseball, basketball and girls, haha!)

    Prefer video games to alcoholism, which is apparently more socially acceptable.
    "Why do you play video games? They're for kids!"
    "Why do you drink a 5th of bourbon every day?"
    Conversation over.

    We should start an above 40 league!

    I love this. I'm going to use it!

    Not gonna say how old I am but I attended games at Fenway in the’50s and met Johnny Pesky.

    And I really love this game.

    I like the idea of a “retired league”

    Anyone interested?

    I started a Discord channel to get the retirees together that want to form a league. I’ll send you an invite.

    58 years young here, hoping to retire in 2 years, I'd be interested in a league.

    1. Still love metal and video games. I will be in an old folks home cranking Lamb Of God while throwing my controller if I make it to 70.

    Heh, I like this. My wife continually reminds me that I am her oldest and most expensive child. I remind her that even though I see grey when I look in the mirror, and I ache when I stand up, my brain thinks I'm still thirteen.

    I messaged you a link to the Discord channel.

    Thanks bud, I will check it out. Totally get where your coming from too, I see less grey and more scalp if you know what I mean! Still got that pony tail at the back though 🙂 I try to do the same things as I did as a nineteen year old, just have to go to bed earlier and pee more...

    60 here and planning retirement for June 2022. I still love my job, and was supposed to retire last February, but decided to work one more year because, well, I still had it in me. Really looking forward for more free times next year though, so I can play more of this game and some others I like. Also planning to spend Spring training season in Florida and Arizona in the years to come.

    Really interested in a league of retirees, althoug I've been playing offline exclusively for the past 3 or 4 years (since I started to play this game actually).

    I sent you an invite to the discord channel I created so we can organize a retiree league.

    Thank you for your service!

    I spend 99% of my time playing offline, so I get it. We are organizing a league of retirees if you ever get interested in joining us. You will be a young'un there, though 😉

    I'm 44 and I am on a medical retirement so I do play a lot... ha. Been my favorite game since it released on XBOX. I grew up mainly playing sports and baseball video games. My only regret is not playing DD online more to get better for next year.
