Brian of Nazareth Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Today I was tempted. I stared, long and hard at a copy of CM00/01 I found lying around. It was untouched and looked so unwanted. I wanted to help, but I held back. For 6 and a half minutes. Anyone know of an English website of Lusitana Futbol Clube per chance? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pred Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 I was hugely intimidated by the stories here for a while, but I decided to pen one myself. Why in the world I chose to place it at a American Baseball website's "General Gaming" forum is beyond me, but i'm an idiot, so that explains a lot of it. I've considered moving it here, but i'm really not sure how people would take to it, partially becaause of how I play, and especially given that 95% of my inspiration in making this was Dixie Flatline's 29-Star effort that still is the best CM story i've ever come across. Still, I invite anyone who might be interested watching a Yankee muddle his way through the English Leagues to take a look.
