[rec.sport.baseball] Earl Weaver Baseball

[Note the Followup-To: line]

I called Electronic Arts yesterday and they told me that
the Commissioner's Disk will be released for the Amiga at the
end of April.  For those who have Earl Weaver Baseball but
dno't know what this disk is, here goes:

The commisioner's disk will allow you to create real custom parks like
the ones found on the EWB disk.  It will allow you to choose the player's
race.  It will track some stats that the game doesn't (don't ask me how,
I'm just saying what the phone-droid told me).  Best of all, it will:

1) Make a schedule.  That's what they told me.  What I fervently hope is
that it will play the schedule automaticcaly, you you don't have to get
each game started manually.

2) YOU WILL BE ABLE TO GIVE INDIVIDUAL TEAMS DAYS OFF.  That finally removes
the barrier prevenbting us EWB fans from simulating the actual major
league schedule.  Once I get that disk, I'll track the majors from start
to finish, and I'll manage the Red Sox while I'm at it.

Again, this is all what some random EA phone-droid told me.  Don't flame
me if it's not accurate - tell them to give their droids processor
upgrades.
