If you think that's frustrating wait until you assemble a treasure trove of all-stars and then get swept in the divisional series by a far inferior team. The intricacies of the game are fantastic. The little things like ignoring a players defensive ability or desire to win or your managers controlling personality can go unnoticed all year and then it hurts when it counts the most and it makes you feel like you have to assemble the perfect combination. And then that falls apart in a year or two as your star peaks or you reach your budgetary threshold as youngsters hit arbitration. Love this damn game.
