RE: Cheating on Panzer Grenadier
Not so, this is before fantasy baseball came into its own (40 years ago I'm afraid to mention) and before my budget could handle going to more than 20 Pirate games (this is when they were especially good, in the 70s) a year, even in the cheap seats. At that time, we were lucky if one game a week was televised and heaven help you if it was a night game on the coast. I went to bed with a transistor radio turned on its lowest volume so my Mom wouldn't hear (If Dad heard he would come into my room and listen to an inning).
What's a kid to do when he lives and breathes baseball and can only see a game at most once a week? Get the dice and paper. Heck we even had a league. One of my best friends took the Reds and I had the Pirates and we played a short season of 50 some games.
I suppose that we were also candidates for the Future Actuaries of America, given our interest in statistics but we just thought we liked baseball... a lot.
No "minor" country left behind...
