I commend your attitude, in light of this situation. Unfortunately, the things you describe are normal behavior for the game.

Managing a minor-league team, and working your way up, should be fun, and it's something that appeals to me, too. I can see why you'd want to do it. Yet it takes an iron will to deal with all the irrational events which take place, and having a fun experience managing a minor league team is considered to be impossible by a big segment of the community.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that you should give it up (although many others here will freely say so), but doing it is hoeing a rock-hard row.
