Have you checked out APBA GO Baseball yet? What are you waiting for? Now you can play your old friend who has moved to Thailand, Hawaii or 3 blocks away. Let us know what you think. Remember we will continue to add features and improvements to APBA GO Baseball.
1906 baseball season is now a master game set. All 412 players are included. Get it here today.
2016 BASEBALL
We will start taking pre-orders for the 2016 baseball card sets on December 9th at 1:00 pm. The cards will be in the store late Thursday afternoon on the 8th. At this time we do not have the lineup or the XC sheet available.
We are taking pre-orders for the 2016 season file for BBW 5.75. We will start sending these next week. This will include every player that played in the 2016 MLB season. Kyle Schwarber will be included in this file and in the XC card set.
Note this product is delivered electronically as files NOT as a CD. Since we need your email address to deliver this product, place your order via the internet.
If you have a gmail address, we strongly recommend that you set up another non gmail address, such as Yahoo or Hotmail. Gmail blocks the file because it has an exe file. If you use a gmail address we will send you a different file but you will have to modify the file to restore the exe file. This is not an APBA issue but a Gmail issue. If you have multiple email address please do NOT include your gmail address on your order for this product.
If you want a CD, the CD is $40 plus shipping. We will start taking orders for the CD on December 9th. This item will be added to the store at this time.
Here is the link to the 2016 Carded Player set.
The XBs are in bold on this list. This is the last season we will identify the XB players separately. Please change your league by-laws or use this warning period to develop procedures for your league to identify XBs for future years.
2015 PRO FOOTBALL CARD SET NEWS
TOURNAMENT NEWS
Now that APBA GO is released who is going to be the first tournament director to schedule and conduct a computer-based APBA baseball tournament? Please feel free to use the Regional Tournament folder in APBA Between the Lines Delphi Forum to communicate, establish a tournament bracket, and report bracket results. This application expands tournament participation to individuals in rural areas where there may not be enough interest or people to conduct a face-to-face tournament as well as to you urbanites who just cannot get enough APBA. I look forward to reporting on the first APBA GO event.
The lone remaining Fall 2016 APBA Tournament schedule is the December 10, 2016 Florida RollAPBAlooza Festival. The tournament will be held at the Bayshore Christian School, 3909 S MacDill Avenue, Tampa, Florida 33611. The tournament theme is 1970s and 1980s. Contact FLTony via the Regional Tournament folder in APBA Between the Lines for more information and registration of you and your team.
Remember if you have a Regional Tournament not mentioned above please contact me at apba66nyslp@yahoo.com with tournament and contact information and I will be sure to promote your event in APBA's company electronic newsletter. Remember all APBA game tournaments are welcome. Have a great week everyone and do not forget to order your APBA holiday presents early for delivery before the holidays. Santa Herson will be glad to stuff your stockings.

1981 (R) BASEBALL 
SEASON IS NOW AVAILABLE
The 1981 (R) baseball card set and season for APBA Baseball 5.75 are now available. This is a brand new set. All 908 players are included in this set.
This is an infamous season because of the strike in the middle of the season. After the strike was settled, a split season format was adopted. The division leaders at the time of the strike were declared the first half winners. However, Cincinnati which had the best overall 1981 season record did not make the play-offs.
This is the year of Fernandomania.
Twenty year old Fernando Valenzuela won his first 8 starts; five were shutouts. I remember waiting for Ray Glandolf's three minute sports update on the CBS Morning news show in 1981 to get an update on Fernandomania before leaving for work. This was pre-Sports Center.
This is a great what-if season to manage. How would a 162 game schedule play out? Can you manage your
favorite team to the World Series?

2015-16 NHL Season.
Now available the recently completed 2015-16 NHL season. Bring it home to your home rink wherever that is.
This is a competitive season. None of the number one seeds made the conference finals. The coaches of the Stanley Cup finalists were in their first year or first half year with their teams. Washington was the President's Cup winner with 120 points. Pittsburgh eliminated them in the second round in six games.
Penguin GM, Jim Rutherford rolled the dice big time in the off season and during the season with trades, call ups and hiring a new coach. Can you coach the Penguins to the Cup? Or as a die-hard Capital fan do you want to get behind the bench and end Washington's post season heartbreaks?
San Jose's first year coach, Peter DeBoer led San Jose to the Cup finals. Can you push San Jose over the edge to claim the Cup? Would you rather try your hand coaching one of the other playoff teams? Do you want to coach Conner McDavid or Jack Eichel in their rookie season? Buy this set.

It was a football game. I read somewhere that the 76 points was higher than the winning score for the past five seasons when these two basketball teams played.
Thank you for your support of APBA.
