Don't know if I can join, I am near my limit on leagues I can manage at one time, I may have to wait on BOWIS X. But I thought I would leave a suggestion anyway. I've started a new league called Coach This, where I've built two rosters you must draft one of the rosters and bring it to the league. The idea is to see who can do the best job coaching the team. One roster cost $106M the other cost $111M, each has pros & cons, but are of similar quality. I've SIM matched them, with some interesting results. It does appear that there's enough variations to actually determine the best coach. GL your league.

2-man Game: You must draft 7,000 minutes or more of 2 different players.  You could use 2 seasons of Wilt and/or 8 seasons of Doug Overton; however many seasons it takes to get 7,000 minutes or more for your 2 players.  Obviously, these players will be clones, but no one else may be cloned.  Dennis Rodman is banned from this league.  (his low usage makes him too good a match for too many players, and I fear he would be on every team.)

Cap 47 Mil

Low defense League - Only 1 player on your team may have a defense above 50, and that player must have a usage of 22 or above.  Cap 42 Mil.

What fun is it to have low defense with out having Lebron or Jordan or whoever to break it?

i kinda like it better without the ringer...but id vote for any low defense league

we used 45 last year but that might be to high....at least drop it to 44 or everyone might end up with the same sf

Yeah apple we already have a low defense league in place but think it should be lowered to 35

I would actually be for a low defense league at 29 or lower for more roster variation.
