I’m running a fictional league into the 1970s right now using as played schedules and all I can say is… man, if you don’t like 21 straight days, don’t play from this era. How about 32 games a month? In July, the month where everybody gets 3 days off for the All Star Game?

Okay, all that said, unless you have a really weird setup I would actually recommend you find real life schedules. The OOTP scheduler can be a little weird. IME it doesn’t usually have three weeks straight of games but it does stuff like schedule every team to have the same days off and it guess if you’re playing with rainouts on then you could see a stretch where 19 games in 21 days could turn into 21, I guess? Nevertheless, I think if you’re in, say, 2026 with current alignments, for instance, just use the schedule from 2019 (or 2018 or whenever to keep things fresh).

If the scheduler is actually scheduling that many days without rest in advance… I guess I’d be curious to know what settings you’re using? How many games, how many teams/divisions, when does the season start, etc.?
