Our Mystery Card games - The '70s Game, Back to the '80s, Back to the '90s

Regarding BTT 90's, I'm guessing there is a licensing issue. I'm guessing this based on the fact that the few still-active players at the time the 80's game was released (Clemens, Rickey H, Larkin, Orozco, etc.) are designated by team and number rather than name. There would apparently be extra cost in using active players. Of course, there are a lot more active players in the 90's than the 80's--a whole lot more.

So I'm guessing that if we see a new decade league, it might be the 70's rather than the 90's. If the volume generated is sufficient to support higher licensing fees, we might then see a 90's version of the game. I might be wrong, but this is my guess.

An all-time greats version of the mystery league game would also avoid this licensing problem and would be really welcome.

'80s, '60s, '50s (Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Duke Snider at their peak as well as Warren Spahn), i'll take any mystery card game.
I'm on my second '05 team only because my first won and right now I only check to see if I've won or not the night before
'69 is deadly. Once the cream is skimed off there is nothing left so if you get a bad draft there's not a lot you can do to fix it. The real problem is that everyone has the same team. 54 games into the season, there are 11 teams within 6 games of each other with the top team at 31 wins and the other 10 bunched up behind. The worst team isn't that far off with 18 wins, but what can he do to get better, I don't know.
So bring on more mystery card seasons.
