I think they were testing a new feature where instead of banning people from the boards they could ban them from playoffs for a month...
Or maybe a special new feature that simulates your entire team testing positive for PEDS and losing playoff eligibility.
Maybe that should be a new rare play introduced in to the cdrom and 200x games. Each season at random times 3 players in each league are selected and suspended for 50 games.
Ok, maybe not.
Or maybe in ATG every 20th use of Bonds, Mac, Sosa, or Palmeiro they get hit with a 50 game suspension somewhere during season.
