ATG8--WHY DILUTE THE SET?

elke u r a moron! clemente was a MLB player from 1955 until 1972! MLB PLAYER! doesn't matter if he was from Antarctica, he was still MLB!

Scumby your an idiot.If you read my posts I was defending the new players.It seems if your not an American player you don't belong in the ATG's.It's the guys unhappy with the new idea of the Cuban and Japanese players being added.I said I was done posting but with dumb remarks like Scumby's tic me off.

Screhouse as like Scumby your just as big an idiot

Elke, you seem to completely have missed the point. It's not about country of origin, it's about Major League Baseball.

Larry Walker is from Canada, but played for the Rockies. Any Cuban player that's played in MLB isn't going to get anyone riled up, just as Larry Walker is OK.

Ichiro's cards based on Seattle and Yankee seasons is just as valid as any other MLB player, even though he's from Japan. Oh's card will be based on absolutely zero MLB plate appearances. Clearer?

Apparently he is SOM's core demographic customer.

I just checked my 55 team and I don't see scorehouse and Scumby in any of my leagues and I'd like to keep it that way.

It's to bad your closed minded.Something new is a terrible idea.Do you really know anything about baseball outside the US.And I know when Clemete played I just brought him up to show you don't have to be American to be an ATG.

Guys, let's stop with the name-calling. We can differ in our opinions without being disagreeable. I'm in leagues with Doug and I respect his opinion, though it apparently is the opposite of mine.

I'm done!!!!!!!!!!!

When ATG 1 came out it was originally a TEAM oriented set. As the different versions came out it has become a PLAYERS oriented set. My belief is that the majority WANT more PLAYERS to represent the teams that have made or make up MLB as it is across the decades HISTORICALLY! I for one would like to have an option to have a league based on ALL of a particular decade past and present. This would require that SOM give us enough players for each team for each decade. Also have an option for the number of teams in a league. This to me is the SHOULD have been the SIMPLEST way for SOM to start and based on the surveys that George Barnard has posted this SHOULD have helped SOM in their upgrading of ATG. Upgrading to Super Advanced Versions is awesome. But what do they do? They drop a bomb with Japaneses and Cuban Stars. OK it would be a nice inclusion as an OPTION ONLY! We were promised NEW cards monthly and got nothing. I can go on and on but for what? If this is a passive-aggressive way for SOM to pull the plug just grab your sack and do it and don't string us along!!!!!!!

In case SOM does know the meaning of Customer Service:
Customer service is a series of activities designed to enhance the level of customer satisfaction – that is, the feeling that a product or service has met the customer expectation.
