Interest in observing a league

Hi all -

New here, first time poster.

I've clocked about 280+ hours in OOTP '21 and I'm interested in exploring online leagues after playing solo (primarily doing a fictional league from scratch). However, I also do not want to sign up for a league without getting a sense of the commitment required.

From reviewing the site, I see many leagues use Slack/Discord to capture a lot of their league day-to-day, comms, and updates. I'm keen to see if any leagues would be open to having me join their slack/discord to observe so I can get a better feel if online OOTP is for me before I commit to upgrading + signing up to run a team (should an opening be available).

I'm married and work 40-50 hours per week w/ occasional travel, so I want to make sure I would be a good fit for online play before diving in.

If it matters, I'm interested in fictional leagues (MLB start far into the future is fine or totally fictional from scratch fine). Don't have too many other hard requirements regarding coaching, scouting, and other league rules. Will need to familiarize myself more to have a sense of what I'd enjoy most.

Thanks all - appreciate the help. Please let me know here or via DM if you'd be open to having me follow along for a bit to learn more. Thanks!
