On a side note, I don't know if its just my imagination but some of luster in building a team seems to be missing in this version. I had four OL teams and my Coney Island team outside of OL last year and I had one repeat player, Martin Dihigo who was on two of my teams due to the number places you can plug him in. Now you go to the auction house and see the same players, lists of them over and over again. Although right now there are only 14 Ralph Kiners in the AH an all time low....
I am going to hang in for a bit but to be honest I am starting to get bored with it and am beginning to considering letting the teams go adrift in the next few weeks.

I definitely hear ya. Last year I had a strict rule about no duplicates but I've relaxed it for this year. I'm still trying to move away from that though. It's so difficult to think of selling that Greg Maddux or Suzuki card though.... I'm weak.
One way I'm making it easier on myself is by trying to create specific (and different) identities for my two teams. When I have a clear picture of what I want the team to be like, that informs my choices as to who I want on the team and who I don't. Which in turn makes selling those SE guys easier (granted, if I'd done this much earlier in the season I would have gotten more for those SE cards, but it is what it is).
I'm still toying with the thought of creating a 3rd team, completing the collections, and selling all of the rewards without playing them at all. And then building the team from scratch, just to see how it would turn out. I don't want to do that before I figure out THAT team's identity though. I haven't done this yet because I'm still actively tinkering with Brigadoon.
I guess I could create the team, do the collections, and never mess with them until I have figured out exactly what I'm doing. Hm, that's a thought.
