Shoudn't I like both equally the same be an option, since I hate both is an option?

I like 2008 better because I feel like I have more control over my outcomes.

08 is definitly more difficult. I liked 07 because of the REs and fate cards.

Lance,

When did you get '09? Are you in 2K's test group? Can I have a copy of it when you are done? :lol:

I kind of hated 08 success mode. 07 was hilarious and there was something new each time. I have trouble making players because its so boring now. I still go back to the good ol' 07 one every now and then. I wish players were compatible. Hopefully next year has a better plot and is much funnier. I swear, half the writers went back to Japan and left this game in the dust.

08=much easier to make better players

I disagree completely on that one. For 07 I was able to make all As with a ton of abilities without much S/L.

I S/L religiously on this and haven't matched it yet.

It's been the opposite for me. Last year the best guy I made was a C,F,B,B,A,B and I never even got A power. But this year I'm making BACBBD third basemen and 105 mph closers with ridiculous breakers and tons of abilities.

ive had it the opposite, but then again i never did date annie for the GR.

Jaw gives bags, get GR early and SoP/waxes.
Carryover points can give you more turns then last year.

I made pretty good players last year, but my guys this year are much better

just my experience though, i may find it easier, but others may not.
