Año 2. No. 13 Marzo 2016 No. 13 Marzo 2016 www.playo�magazine.comAño 2. No. 13 Marzo 2016 1 No. 13 Marzo 2016 www.playo�magazine.com NOTA EDITORIAL Play-Off llega a su primer Aniversario: trescientos sesenta y cinco días de constancia y compromiso. Durante este viaje de doce meses, hemos aprendido a vivir con los errores y las decisiones innecesarias. Sin embargo, cada tropiezo nos enseña, nos hace comprender las complejidades del mundo editorial con una mirada más responsable. En esta experiencia, no solo podemos hablar de sacrificio; también podemos hablar de alegría, de amistad; de crear un grupo profesional que, más allá de los intereses personales, han descubierto en la revista un proyecto por el cual apostar todo el tiempo necesario. Siguiendo con nuestra línea, este mes Play-Off trae grandes sorpresas. La visita del presidente Obama nos alienta y, como el béisbol es un factor impor- tante en las negociaciones, hemos decidido dedicar gran parte de la publica- ción al histórico encuentro en el Stadium Latinoamericano. Otro regalo son excelentes fotos del maravilloso concierto de los Rollings Stones en la Ciudad Deportiva; además que, ¡finalmente!, podemos contar con un sitio web más interactivo y dinámico. Es importante mencionar que, a raíz del creciente número de seguidores que tiene el fútbol internacional en Cuba, la publicación abrirá sus puertas al balompié europeo. Análisis, estadísticas y mucha información valiosa sobre el más universal de los deportes comenzará a figurar en nuestras páginas. Por lo demás, jamás nos cansaremos de agradecer a todas las personas que nos mencionan y nos felicitan en Facebook, en Twitter y en la editorial de nuestra revista ([email protected]), últimamente convertida en un verdadero campo de batalla. Esperamos que esta edición sea de su agrado y que visiten nuestra nueva web: www.playoffmagazine.com. Gracias nuevamente.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.
