I really think that we should get rid of the midseason progression. I personally think ratings are fine but I have seen multiple people complain about it, and someone (I think Maniac?) said that Spence is trying to lower ratings in the future draft classes to try and get things back to "normal". Because of all of this, we cannot have things like post-padding threads for rewards. To me, that is a big part of BBS. It's fun. It is a testament to how much we all enjoy the league. I'd really hate to see those types of things stop (which it looks like it has).
My suggestion is to get rid of the midseason progression. I don't have any idea how we justify it honestly. RCs work because it is essentially "practice". If I work harder on my team in real life (practicing them etc) then they would perform better. In sim league terms, that means being active, writing articles, etc. So that works. But midseason progression is a randomized ratings boost that I always hated. I'm not bitching because I never get any good players - in fact, I've had really good luck with it (Manu, Paul). I just think it takes no skill whatsoever and can change up rosters too much. To me, it comes at the expense of post-pad threads which sucks. Even if we weren't to start having post-pad threads anymore I'd like to get rid of midseason progression. It was a cool idea at the time but honestly, I just don't get how we justify it.

I agree completely.
Of course luck plays some role in the league, in some areas that we can't completely control (inexplicably good/bad TC's, lottery, injuries) but +10 potential is pretty drastic and I'm not a fan of it being in the hands of luck.

Why would we ditch it?

We either ditch Midseason Progression or the next draft class will mimic the end credits for Threes Company.

I much prefer post-pad type opportunities to the midseason progression.

I haven't liked the midseason progression thing, which is why I haven't used it.

I bet if a good player got the +10 I'd like the Midseason Progression.
