but weren't you one of the ones for created players? lol I loved it. And then the same awful FBB/DJ/Pig prospects kept being made and it was like, wow, this is shockingly brutal. The players are always the same, the ratings sets suck, the names are dumb.

This thread reminded me of how bad everything will be for me when the league goes to retro.

It got to the point where the same thing was happening every year, 5 years ago this was fairly new and we did not know how most of these players would turn out. Now it is just over done and boring.

I just think there's a lack of creativity with the creation of picks. People can call it stupid all they want but the Dial brothers and the +25 potential thing is an awesome idea and there should be at least 5 to 6 players in every draft that have some story that affects a certain rating or projection.
Having 20 B C C A C A at the PF position season after season gets extremely boring and makes the whole created player thing all that more stupid and is why I was against it.

I don't get the argument against fake players either, nor do I understand the fuss over names.
Please, inform everyone, how should these prospects have been 'properly' named? What would be acceptable for all of you?

So you know how all the players are going to turn out now? same stupid guys are being made. Guys with weird names, horrible ratings or huge problems like they suck at defense or they cant rebound and they are a big men. Just glaring problems and it is getting repetitive. We don't know how they will turn out but half of these guys will sucks anyway. Last years draft showed us that. You keep creating these irish type of names, one or two was fine but damn every year, or st.cloud i mean it is dumb imo.

There needs to be better communication. I think that is the biggest problem.

I understand you want to have some interesting prospects and originality but it is like the fucking Barnum and Bailey circus in this place.

I think fake players would have been a lot better if Spence gave a guide to what he wanted from each set. A #1 type, a late-lotto, etc. Maybe he already does this. If he does, then I don't know what to do with the fake players because at this point it's really old.

Really, show me an example of an awful prospect I have made. The issue isn't your prospects, even if Dan just kind of said that. His first paragraph of that post is 100% right IMO. Too many prospects with stupid deficiencies. A couple here and there is realistic/fine, but there have been way too many gimmicky guys. Not talking about your prospects either. I honestly don't know who creates what for the most part.

I was always against this from the start for this very reason... and the people for created players were always against my ideas for created players with story-lines and now look...

Devereux St. Cloud- great player stupid name What's wrong with his name? I just don't understand this argument at all. I can agree that some prospects have too many glaring deficiencies, sure, but what the hell is wrong with their names? In real life people have a whole LOT of different names.
