Manager Mode fixes

A few things regarding manager mode that could be fixed :

1 - You should be required to be at least 18 before having children... I mean a 13 year old manager with 3 kids (1,2 & 4) is a bit of a 'bug' I guess.... I know some folks have kids at 15, 16, etc... but it's not the norm... and 9 is a bit ridiculous..

2 - When asked if you accept a contract extension, you should at least be able to view other offers first. Especially since it is ALWAYS after the season.. Why doesn't the owner ask during the season about contract extensions ?? It happens in real life all the time.

Just a few of my notes on manager mode...

It's a great feature though... keep up the great work.

I agree that Manager Mode has a great future. Solid input will be the fuel that adds to its evolution. The managing section is likely the perspective that will and should receive the most attention. I don't have a great deal of interest in the personal section, but in that arena I am wondering what it takes to add our own notes to the diary. I'd like to jot a thought here now and then like "Paters is coming up well in AAA even though I moved him there ahead of schedule." Or even personal games notes about one just played or a series coming up, i.e. I put Petey Jones on the Player Tracker to keep an eye on whether he'll be ready for the Austin series in three weeks. We could use him!"
