"Youtubers don't know as much as they think they do"
"I've never looked into the "OOTP youtube" world, but I'm sure there are good youtubers out there along with some that really don't add much to the knowledge pool."
I don't agree with you in terms of all YouTubers who create OOTP content but your comment certainly describes at least several of them I've checked out OutSider.
I think your comment is closer to the truth Sweed but what's most important, imo, for anyone watching any of the how-to or play-through vids is that you don't take any of the content as being the "Right way" to play OOTP. There are just too many variations of settings and league configurations for there to be a right or wrong way to play. Of course there are right ways to play in terms of each individuals vision of what kind of OOTP save their envisioning. I think this along with general ways to manage aspects of the game such as minor leagues and player development, to name a couple, is where YouTube vids can really help someone hone certain skills that they may not want to learn by their own trial & errors. A couple of the better ones, again imo, are Around The World Sports and pfholden with the former being my fave mostly because of the way he explains his decisions. I've learned alot from him that I otherwise would have had to learn by the a fore mentioned trial & error method. Having said all that I do need to acknowledged that some of you are reading this thinking you wouldn't want to play the game any other way than through your own trial & error and this goes back to the theme of there not being a "Right Way" to play the game.
