I like a good mix of owner types, regardless of what labels you'd want to use.

The USBA has a mix consisting of vets who were in online leagues using OOTP3 and newer guys that came aboard with the release of OOTP4.
Some are ultra-active with team reports and extracurricular league interest articles and others we barely hear a peep from outside of necessity (i.e. contract extensions). The guys who are "quietest" in the USBA often have the best (even perfect) lineup submission percentages!

I am extremely satisfied with the current makeup of the league. My feelings are if a league was full of Type-A personalities, all fighting for their voice to be heard and their articles to be read, you may end up with information overload and too much of a good thing. How many owners are going to read 24 team reports on a weekly basis? How many leagues can boast 24 guys who can write compelling articles week after week? Realistically, not many leagues can claim that.

Since there will always be some turnover and some owners who are more dedicated than others, what do you think is a realistically attainable goal along those lines?
We've had very little turnover in the USBA. I think one owner has left in the past two seasons, but the little turnover we have had has not been negative. Often a new owner/GM will bring some freshness to the trade talks or a new reporting angle for team reports.
