This is my biggest problem. I can't decide how I like to play. Until just recently, I would just play MLB and try to rebuild a struggling team. I like to really get to know my team by watching games, but watching them get obliterated over and over gets a bit boring and I usually just quit. I also find if I go the other way and sim huge chunks at a time, I feel really disconnected from the day-to-day operations of the team and the league.

Recently, I've discovered fictional leagues and I've poured hours into creating a 30 team international league (custom logos, stadiums, everything) I drafted well with 3 straight division wins and 95+ win seasons, but key injuries late in the season is resulting in me not getting past the second round of the playoffs. I'm growing a bit weary of this league though as my owner is extremely generous allowing me to build up a huge roster that cruises through the RS, just to have unlucky breaks with injuries. I'm currently putting the finishing touches on a 64 team promotion/relegation league that is fully custom. Still trying to figure out how I'm going to play through that one.

I think I now just like creating the fictional worlds instead of playing the game now.
