League Profile: Mail 3 League

mail3 Over the holidays, Marc Ross sent me some info on his league, the Mail 3 League.  Take some time to check out Mail 3’s web site.  They’ve done an excellent job not only stat keeping but also documenting their history.

I also notice that their constitution is online.  I think that’s invaluable for those of us who want to exchange ideas (I know I have to update our league’s). 

 

Here’s the scoop on Mail 3:

This is the third generation of a league that stared in the early 1970s and a few managers have been around since then. We have four divisions and play the basic game with a few minor modifications. Visit our website for more details and to see the leagues long history and records.

 

I particularly liked the Greatest (and Worst) Mail 3 Teams section as well as the Mail 3’s Biggest Trades.  That a nice touch and makes your APBA league seem a little more "real". 

thanks Marc, for writing in. 

 

If you want to brag about your league, we’re listening!  Tell us all about the league you are in and we’ll post a profile about it. 

In the meantime, read about other leagues who have written in.

I am an IT consultant by day and an APBA media mogul by night. My passions are baseball (specifically Illini baseball), photography and of course, APBA. I have been fortunate to be part of the basic game Illowa APBA League since 1980 as well as the BBW Boys of Summer APBA League since 2014. I am slogging through a 1966 NL replay and hope to finish before I die.

  1. FANTASTIC LEAGUE!!! I really enjoyed looking at your league’s encyclopedia, comparing how players did in your league to how they performed in our league. Also enjoyed looking at your best teams of all time & your worst teams of all time.

  2. TB,
    yeah, me too. It gives a personal touch to the league.

    Somewhere on our site we have a page about the team that lost 126 games. I’ll have to find it. :)
