Text Based Football sims

Jeff · Post by **Jeff** » Mon Aug 22, 2005 10:02 pm

Anyone know of a good, text based, football sim cut from the cloth of something like - Out of the Park Baseball? I'm more into the day to day, set lineups, call plays, review boxes, make substitutions, etc - than getting into the GM stuff. If that is in the package its okay, but I am more into the "on-field" action.

Front Office Football is okay, downloaded a demo tonight but found I could not access end of game stats.

Ideas?

Thanks...

Jeff

I had that and Paydirt both. Great games. But no, not the same.

Now, I'm more of a GM guy.. but you can call your own plays if you want. Hands down my favorite football text sim.
