did the freebie thing...
bought the cheap deal for two teams...

ALL I want to do is draft an 80M/noDH team straight from ATG8 spreadsheet just like before -- BUT...

tried to fill in my players from first choice down...
typed last name and it only offered me the 8.25M card of the guy I wanted the 7.77M card??

is this REALLY that "hard???"

Assuming you are referring to Mel Ott, but the principles are the same.

Type in "Ott, M" and you will see a listing of 4 Mel Otts. Click on any one of them. You will now be on a screen where you can draft any of the 4 Mel Ott cards by clicking the Green + button

nope -- got this...

Pitchers
No pitchers match your search criteria.

Hitters
No hitters match your search criteria.

Are you typing in "ott, m" If you have a space before ott, you will get that message. If you type "mel ott" you will get that message.

so -- if I capitalize "Ott, M" instead of going "ott, m" it will default to the error message??
(don't think I am going " Ott, M" either)

That link won't work. It just takes each player to their own homepage

as I said in original query...
ALL i want is the SAME set (ATG8) which is used for the FREE trial :evil:

is THAT so much to ask??
(I guess my question is really "Why do they NOT offer that as an option for PAID for teams?")
