I have 4 teams, and put full effort into 2 of them. It's hard to find that balance between wanting to add more and more and also not burning yourself out. 4 seems to be my number.

Besides the obvious cost, how many teams/worlds are too much for folks? Part of the temptation here is so many choices. I've got four D3 teams at the moment and still trying to build a consistent winner and having fun.

For good coaches, more teams actually makes the game cheaper. When I had 9 teams, I had my d3/d2 teams support the cost of building up my D1 programs.

When the SIM f-ks you over, sometimes 1 team is too much

That's why you want more teams. Law of large numbers.

My limit is 5, which is where I'm at. I'm sure it's different for everyone, due to finances and free time.

I am at 4 D2 teams. I am retired.  I give full attention to all. Takes a lot of time. It appears to be my limit. Probably 3 is ideal. I've been trying to get there for a number of seasons. I have 2 I wouldn't give up and 2 I can't make a decision between. The HD bug is embedded in me now.

Four is my comfort zone, primarily since I like playing in all three two-a-day worlds.
