I had this idea going on for a while although i'm sure the Commish won't like it. I'm little sad to see how time goes fast here and some of the great players are getting old over night (and no, i'm not saying this only cause of mcgrady, although i can't belive his career will probably be over for like half a year or so Sad ). I would really like for players to be younger for some longer period of time then it is now. I was thinking, could we slow down the age? For example, 2 seasons - 1 year older or something like that? Or any other way possible?

Thoughts?

these are years played.   Age is in direct correspondence with # of years a team plays.

If we slow down aging, then players play longer, then the amount of talent in the league doubles, and it throws everything out of whack.

So...no.

The only viable option would be to slow down how fast we sim.   And I'm sure people won't be happy about that.

Or we could throw some kind of a retro draft...bring guys like Tim Hardaway, Isiah Thomas, Drazen Petrovic, Kevin Johnson, Charles Barkley, Wilkins etc?? Razz . That would be fun.

p.s. Just NO MJ

I could see doing a retro draft once.

but it would be tough to balance real life attributes while trying to keep the talent level in the league balanced.

You could take the next draft and change everyones name to a retro player and not worry about attributes...

Is it possible to download a retro roster FBB draft file?  I thought I saw something like that on the FBB site one time

There are.

But they are generally much higher rated than our current players.

I say...If it ain't broke, then don't fix it.  Stick with the computer generated draft picks.

There have been good drafts and there have been bad drafts.  That's the way it goes in any sport.
