I'm coming from an APBA background, and thus far, liking OOTP better as a computer game. Three issues have come up that I have been unable to solve.

1) Setting the playoff roster. Some players I wished to leave off the roster I ended up having to release. This is not really acceptable, but I had no choice if I wanted to win.

2) Switching to commissioner mode. I was not able to do so until I created a new user (me again) and then deleted the old one. Not a huge deal except that I lost a year of experience in my history.

3) This one is infuriating. I attempted to move my DH to a position and insert my pitcher into the lineup. It would not allow me to do so. So, I tried inserting the pitcher into the lineup, but that was also not allowed. I ended up locked up and, just to get out of the screen (there is no undo), I put the reliever I moved the pitcher (whom I could not set to pitcher) to the vacated fielding position that would have been where the DH moved. My thinking was that I would have the pitcher throw one pitch, then move that fielder (the desired pitcher) in to pitch. This was also not allowed. As of right now, I have a tired pitcher on the mound and my closer playing CF in a save situation. Not amused.
