Still a lot of teams have not been entered.

Penalty is one point per team, per day.

I finally got two teams down to $60M and then couldn't decide which was less bad.  Drives me crazy.  If the team I entered finishes below .500 I'll be tormented by thoughts of picking the wrong one.  Hated this theme... I guess that's what made it so good.

I'm feeling exactly the same way.  This was the first team I started working on.  It's the last team I'm entering.  I actually got four or five "playable" (I use the term loosely) teams built, but I'm quite sure I'm choosing the wrong one to go with.  I'm curious to see what everyone else's team looks like.

Here are some types of themes that I don't enjoy at all:

-Twisting-based themes
-Heavily Restricted Team/Season Based Themes
-Low Cap Themes

So, yeah, this 60 million team is basically hell.

My god was that 60 Mil team painful.... $70 Mil isn't TOO bad, but this was ridiculous trying to save every dollar possible

Yeah the problem with this 60m theme is that pretty much every twist has to be used to save money or boost IP / PA levels just so that one can make it through an entire season.  I think in retrospect Schwartz should have either added more twists or raised the salary cap to 70M.  As it is now, I fear that there won't be much variety as most of the 24 owners will be picking from the same team pool (Schwartz didn't help matters by encouraging us to label all of our teams after the 83 Expos, probably further reducing what little team variety there was going to be.  Got to admit the joke was extremely funny, though).

Sent a third site-mail to newarkwilder... to get his 60M team in.  He hasn't ready the first two.  Penalty points = 2 so far.
