LOL, does it hold up? of course it does!!

been playing franchise mode in so any different sports games for 30+ years at this point, bwahahaha.

it's probably been further streamlined... but the basics should still work well. all about maximizing that playoff roster... the less money you waste on useless parts, the more you can spend on the parts that contribute the most.... with some consideration for injury risks etc... but everyone gets their fair share of that over time.

if you can afford a large budget, you can perpetually field a team better than the RL NY Yankees who have won 25% of WS for 100+ years or whatever it is.

if you got a smaller budget, you may need to have some ebb and flow.

financial discipline will get you more WS wins. Know what you can afford.. don't stretch and any short-term benefit to win "1" WS is far outweighed by more opportunities by avoiding bad years altogether. Watch that 10/5 rule like a hawk... don't get stuck with a dud. flexibility is an underappreciated asset.

I'm not a patriot fan, but they are probably the only major pro sport team that comes close to my way of running a team... consider all ramifications of decisions, maximize value over time... focus on rates of change and not solely on any 1 year. no stupid decisions that paint your organization into a corner... sounds like common sense, but it is not the status quo. they even get ridiculed for incontrovertibly smart moves. This is the dark ages, still... the cultures lead to GM's grasping to keep a job by mortgaging the future, lol.. why does it keep happening if these people are not retarded? Being a RL GM must be 99% nepotism, Bwahahah.... ffs, the common thought was that weight lifting was bad for baseball players! and, that better stats were just voodoo!

One thing cna be said for sure... there is immense room for improvement when it comes to sophistication of running a pro sports team... As of right now it's a bunch of good ol boys, meatheads, and retards that can't comprehend anything beyond pass/fail frame of reference... binary, and derivative thinkers.
