Global ABCA where the same 5 teams win every year? Some shit league that lasted for a year? It wasnt a league like BBS I can guarantee that. Global has never had a team repeat.

I'm not saying not to go retro, I'm just saying that you'd have to make sure that it's not exactly true to real life. This league as of now hasn't been true to real life. Why would the retro? It's impossible.

What it comes down to is that not every player turns out to be the player we thought they would be. Spencer can't control the way a player develops even if he gives them 100 potential or so.

Well, eventually I think I will go retro. And BBS, when it was retro, was probably just as active as its ever been, so Id say that the chance of BBS going retro and it becoming stale is pretty damn unlikely. I don't think inactivity is an issue, but to be honest retro is boring, predictable, for a lack of a better word, corny. In the current system we have the opportunity to create prospects with unique storylines. And if people want name familiarity, there's no reason why once in a while a superstar's son can't enter the league, ala Rice Jr.

Global has never had a team repeat. IDK anything about Global, thats just the complaints I always hear. That the same teams dominate. It's changing a little bit, but it's largely true. There are a few teams that are never bad and basically rebuild when they feel like it.

There is a reason that I didn't join a league with fake players. I think it's stupid as hell to argue/build/obsess over players who don't exist. With that said, I know those opposed will say "there is a reason that I didn't join a retro league". That's fine. But, the real issue behind retro (predictability) isn't actually true.

But, the real issue behind retro (predictability) isn't actually true. its not predictability necessarily though it is to an extent. its the lack of creativity and uniqueness. the cool thing about fake players is u know absolutely nothing about them. and considering the nba draft is a complete CRAP SHOOT 95% of the time retro isnt like that. when u take a guy who was a HOF'r in real life the odds of him being a total bust in a retro league is almost non existant. he may not be a star but u know u arent getting a total dud. as to where u have to have some REAL balls to take a guy like Big Country Bryant Reeves over a guy like Barkley and in a fake player draft those same players without the real names but iwth the same ratings might go in a different order.
