Oh boy the poor national league is divided into two tiers today. Teams going for it and teams tanking. Attendance will I'm sure suffer just a bit, but this is entertainment so not everyone in sports wins. If your team has players who are popular you do receive at least a small bump initially THEN as you suck it should drop. In this version your not even getting the small bump. Once again your talking life long Cubs fan and the interest was mostly high this decade.

    Sorry, not buying this one.
    You must've forgotten that I grew up in Chicago. The Cubs are a terrible example since the Cubs fan interest has always been at 100 since Ernie Banks days. And then as they starting being dominant and winning , you had tons of people out here in California wearing Cubs gear.

    Bandwagons is what I think they are trying to approximate. And I admit, I'm only going off of one season of data but I can assure you that we were winning before we acquired Mason and while our interest didn't go up immediately, it rocketed up from mid sixties to the low eighties where it is now AFTER we picked him up.

      And most likely I'm teeing off about my fans a little since again we took about a 40ish pt drop and nothing I try seems to work. Your almost better ff doing a full on tank with the way its set up.

      Were actually "trying" while we get thru this mess.

      There was a point mid decade we were at 100 and the owner said "XXX has resigned giving you a significant boost" and course we were already redlined. Too bad we couldn't bank it :(((((((

        I'm not mad. Happy to see us even in that position. I feel a lot better about the future of the organization after all the deals we made this season.

          The season you put together after trading the IL's best infielder is nothing short of amazing sir.

          J. Allen worthy.

                Yea you are right.

                But I still like to give credit to GM's who make unexpected, bold moves that work out like this did for Sully.

                And Liquid for that matter.

                  Was a great season for your club. The divison while not Lager horrible is well within striking range for your team.

                      I doesn't look like we can adjust it. I thought I read that playoff revenue was doubled from normal revenue somewhere a while ago. Maybe that was 16.

                          Crazy. Didn't know they did that.

                              Exported- should be an exciting sim with Baltimore! I had a lot of trouble setting my rotation for this game- hopefully I chose wisely :)
