I just noticed the schedule didn't start the season until Apr 11th for some reason. I will still sim to opening day tomorrow there will just be a week of rest before the season starts. Haven't had this issue happen before. Not sure what happened tbh but I'll keep an eye on it next offseason.

File is up. Reports and S+ to follow.

- We are at Opening Day! Reminder it is a 20 MILLION DOLLAR FINE if you don't have your rosters cut to 26 by tomorrow's sim. Also, I will use the "Ask AI to setup organization" button to get you to 26.
- Again, I have no idea why the game started the season a week later but at least all your guys will be fully rested...I guess lol.

Your math is atrocious.

[DRiccio21]

we had 4 teams .500 or better last year. hard to argue about the bEAST at this point.

Another Sheltown casualty to add to the list.

Signed Jason Connor to a big deal in 2088, as a 32 year old 68 overall, blue rated dude.

1 season later he's down to 51 and I can only imagine that'll be 45 or lower before the end of this season.

What is your player dev budget at? Also are your coaches good at Handle Aging?
