I'm seeing all this jibber jabber about married and children and what not and I get the impression that everyone's getting married as a manager in their game and stuff and I have no idea how to do this. Anyone wanna splain this to me? I seem to understand that it was only in 6.5 (which I didn't have)? I had ootp8, not 2007, if that makes a difference. Also, I would like to do manager only as well, no GM, or at least try it, too. Did anyone find this possible? It would also be kinda corny to still be a GM but set all the GM stuff to AI because then you're still responsible for trades and whatnot even though it's the comp doing it.

On point, I tried to bring the Pitsburg Pirates back to fruition for whatever reason and found that a majorly flawed experiment. Before year 2 I made this major 20-player trade with Arizona (firesale: LaRoche and Freddy Sanchez--couldn't afford them) and thought it would begin the major turn around. So much for that. Year 2 was the final of my tenure with the Pirates. Luckily the Red Sox had fallen out of grace and signed me. Whoever their AI GM had been before me was a nutjob. I came into some crazy rosters.
