What is SO broke that we need to restart at this point? Why didn't we restart 3, 4, 5 seasons ago? What is so messed up now that would call for a do over?
i don't want to restart at all so i'm not sure where that's coming from.

my point is your comments about 'liking your team now' and that's why you don't want to restart.

How do you figure ? If they did, We wouldnt be even visiting this issue. Clearly something has gone wrong here.

(just skimmed all this after a long day of work, so could be missing something)

All I saw was that Reign hinted at stepping down soon (young kid, school, work are all good reasons to have limited time) and then people pretty much just discussed possible replacement scenarios. I didn't see anything hint at anything having "gone wrong" or anyone not enjoying the game... Like I said, I could have missed it (hell, maybe even a whole page), but it didn't seem like there was anyone not enjoying the game... Just Whit not liking Ted... (who the hell truly likes him anyway? ;) )

wait, what? who doesn't enjoy it?

if thats the case we have some ungrateful people here who live in a fantasy world thinking they are entitled to reign's free time.

if you find yourself complaining about the league, you are probably the problem.

Sounds fun but how many leagues can this group handle? Id be for scrapping what we have now and beginning a historical league or a new fictional league but I doubt that will happen.

And for my triple post, I will say...

I for one would like a start over cause we all know more now, as the reasons nick stated earlier and it would be fun to all start out on an even playing field and see what happens.


To the real, historic league, that would be the only problem, you already know how the guys turn out, so I am not sure I would like that as much the more I think about it.
You get a Babe Ruth and who the hell else in his time period could compete with him.

I think you're bat shit crazy if you want to start over. I'd say right now this league is about as stable as it could possibly be. There are still some minor issues out there, but you'd be amazed what kind of shit you're likely to run into if you start over.


On a side note, I have stepped down as Big Ten commish.

Here's just a quick list, completely off the top of my head:

PROS:
- Cleaner league file
- Better player history
- Consistently structure minor leagues
- Everyone starts on a fairly level playing field
- 1 set of rules throughout the course of the entire existence of the league

CONS:
- Loss of history
- Significant amount of work to get things in order (can't stress this one enough)
- Potential lack of attachment to teams
- Any potential turnover of current coaches not interested in starting over
- Unseen issues with our financial structure that may not necessarily apply to a new league.

I just wanted to be the 1000th post.

But I am not interested at all in starting all over. Now if you guys want to start another league then I'm all in.
