No, it's not absurd. Nobody is complaining about the extra effort, it's the extra TIME that's the issue. Some of us don't have unlimited time to play the game, and there are a lot of coaches who don't have the time to recruit without the tool. There are even more who will be dropping teams to fit the new system into their available time. If you read the posts you'd know that, so I'm assuming you're intentionally misrepresenting what is being said to give yourself an opportunity to run your mouth. That's OK; it's safe here in the chat room, but if you did that in real life, you'd deserve the set of lumps you'd collect.
