Spring training

[crackerjaxon]

Suggestion for ATGIII:

Why not have a week's worth of games in which there are no penalties for getting players on the wire? Could be the first week of the season, or maybe a seventh week could be added. The schedule could be changed so that you face every team in that week.

It would give you a pretty good idea of what you're up against.

I like the idea. A short quick round of games with no drop penalty. Then a wiping of the slate and the season begins.

It could be done over a 3 day span. First day East plays 1 game against each team in the West. Central division plays each team in its own division. Second day East plays 1 game against each central division team. Central plays teams in its own division. Third day East plays 1 game against each other team in the east and Central plays West teams.

Then you would have 11 games with which to evaluate how your team was fitting together and make changes. Or it could follow a format similar to the free trial that was done for 2005 game. Though I suspect a 7 day spring training might be too long for some.

Then everyone reverts to 0-0 and the season begins. :D
