In some ways it's cool that the best players will not sign with the EBL in other ways it makes it a challenge not to have a AAA league.
How is the market size of 0 working out? I have plans for a 2nd league like the PCL challenging my ABF league starting in 1920 and merging in 1960. Also have plans for an American League starting in 2010 and seeing what happens.
The 0 market size works perfect. Those teams get around 4-5 mil in media and the older league teams get from 50 to 100 mil. It really works to set the media contract baseline's the same.

One issue I am having is players demanding and signing for crazy contracts in either league when their ratings and performance doesn't match up. Could it be an issue with the ratings relative to the league selected? I wonder if they think that they are great in the newer league so they should get paid as great in the old league.
