I like the layout better now.  Looks more professional in my opinion.  Also, the comment section is much easier to read.

If you like it , hate it, have any suggestions or if something is not working, please let me know.

My point of this?  Feel free to use it.  I’d love to hear from anyone who has an opinion about APBA (believe me, I know you’re out there).  And if you just want to tout your league or even your replay, we’re all ears.

Don’t forget, if you haven’t told us about your league, I’m sure we’d love to hear about it.  There’s a form for that, too.  :)  Many leagues have already done so and you can read about all of them here.

Hope to hear from you.

This was probably a long time coming.  There is a large APBA crowd looming on Facebook.  The APBA Company itself has a Facebook presence and there is even an APBA Baseball group which is fairly active.  Time for me to get in the picture, I suppose.

And if Twitter is more your thing, don’t forget that The APBA Blog pushes out update notifications via Twitter too @theapbablog. 

So join The APBA Blog Facebook fan page.  We’ll make it worth your while.  

I’ve been thinking that the APBA Blog’s site background was beginning to look a little too pale white so I added some color.  Comments welcome.  Also let me know if I broke anything (always a distinct possibility) in the process.

Plug for APBA Between the Lines

Most of you already know about Delphi’s APBA- Between the Lines forum.  However, judging from some of the emails I get, there are plenty of APBA fans out there who haven’t heard of it.  I’d hazard to say that it’s the largest online gathering of APBA fans out there.  At BTL, you can share information, check out the classifieds, or just simply shoot the bull.

Again, most of you know it’s there but for those who don’t, I highly encourage you check it out.  It’s free and only requires that you register.

APBA Blog is on Twitter

I’ve set up a Twitter account for The APBA Blog.  For those who don’t want to be bothered with visiting the site everyday to see what’s new (or IF there’s anything new), an update will be sent to @theapbablog whenever I post an article complete with a link to the article.

You can follow The APBA Blog @theapbablog.

Note:  I don’t know if there is an established search tag for APBA.  If there is, let me know.  For the time being, I’m tagging my posts with #apbagames (I didn’t want #APBA to be confused with the American Powerboat Association).

The APBA Blog is looking for article submissions

The content on this site has leaned a little heavy towards dice baseball (I write what I know).  I welcome anyone out there who would like to write an article on computer APBA or any of the other APBA sports games.  For that matter, I’d entertain articles on dice baseball as well.  Differing points of view would make this a better site.

If you’re interested in contributing an article, just send me an email.

I’m just basking in my 15 minutes. 

I’ve been a die-hard fan for some five years now and have been covering them on the The Baseball Zealot for a couple years.  This year, i decided to give them their own site and move over all the related content. 

If it interests you, stop by and say hi. 

Let us know about your league.  Whether it be baseball, football, hockey or basketball.  Whether it be basic game, advanced or computer.  Face-to-face or mail… we want to hear all the details!

Take a few minutes and type in a few details about the APBA league you are in and The APBA Blog will write up a profile on your league and post it on our site.

As the numbers grow, we’ll create a directory of APBA Leagues accessible to all APBA fans everywhere.

Interested?  You can start here at the League entry form.

The authors of The APBA Blog (all who are long time fans of the great game of APBA) are excited to bring you this new forum to you!  We have a lot of plans for the site.

Our blog would like to hit as many topics of APBA tabletop gaming as we can.  APBA Leagues as well as replays.  Current seasons not too mention historical  seasons.  We’ll try to hit the gamut.

And of course, we’ll try to be timely with any APBA-related news, helpful info not to mention our insight into issues, tips and analysis on the game of APBA.  We just want promote the game of APBA that we’ve played since we’ve played since we were kids.

Let me encourage you to be part of the blog.  Feel free to comment on articles.  We would love to hear what you have to say.  The commenting process is simple (just click on the “Comment” link below).  In addition, if you are in an APBA League, we’d love to tell everyone about it. Finally, if there is something, YOU would like to see talked about on The APBA Blog, send us an email and let’s talk about it.

The APBA Blog has begun.
