I suggest providing more details as to how you set up your non-replay sims, and what you're after.
One thing you mentioned: "...the individual careers are too long on most players." You can fix this by checking the "Retire According to History" box on the Game Settings > League Settings > Historical panel... The other things you mentioned (that you do not like) are very-likley fixable, but it all depends upon the details...
Note that there are so many difference settings & toggles & so forth that OOTP is capable of:
1) a pretty solid historical replay
2) something that's so divergent from history that it becomes almost fictional
3) everything in-between 1 and 2
IOW, you can start off by selecting Replay on the Historical Wizard panel #1, but then tweak a bunch of other settings to where things will be different from a strict-ish replay. Which, again, means that what you are after is likely doable.... just need more deets.
