Aaron Priven<p>Today’s <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/NAPLPS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NAPLPS</span></a> team is the Brooklyn Intranets, also part of the Atlantic Division of the PC-DOS.

Aaron Priven<p>Well, now that yesterday's events are over, it's time for us to look forward to next season. So over the next few weeks I'll be doing a quick rundown of each of the teams in the North American Premier League of Professional Sportsball (NAPLPS). I can't promise to do one a day but that's my goal.</p><p>Today's team: the Albany Corruption. </p><p>Conference: Atlantic Division of the Professional Conference - Domestic and Overseas Sportsball (PC-DOS).</p><p>Home: MVP Arena, Albany, New York.</p><p>Colors: Green and black.</p><p>Logo: An open briefcase full of dollar bills.</p><p>Let's hear a shout from all the Corruption fans out there!</p><p><a href="https://sfba.social/tags/NAPLPS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NAPLPS</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/AlbanyCorruption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlbanyCorruption</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Sportsball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sportsball</span></a></p>
Santo Nucifora<p>I am a big fan of Canada's old <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Telidon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Telidon</span></a> system that was an advancement to <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Videotex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Videotex</span></a> services in the early 80s. It was the precursor to <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/NAPLPS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NAPLPS</span></a> that was used across North America. Here is an uncommon <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Commodore" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Commodore</span></a> 64 software title that decoded Telidon Videotex from the Manitoba Telephone System.</p>

Stewart Russell<p>This was a bit of an ordeal …<br>I wrote some Python that generated <a href="https://xoxo.zone/tags/NAPLPS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NAPLPS</span></a> — a vector graphics format used on some videotex <a href="https://xoxo.zone/tags/BBS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BBS</span></a> services in the 1980s-90s.
