Re: How to grind through the dog days?
I am in the same boat everyone else is with trying to deal with the "Dog Days of Summer". Funny thing is this is my best year of participation yet of my four previous attempts at playing all 162 games in an MLB The Show title. I am one week ahead of the real world calendar playing my MLB The Show 16 season (meaning today is August 16th, not the 9th) and my team has played about 118 or so games to date with me playing at least 100 of those games. But it's been hard to play every day these last few weeks since August rolled around. I had time last night so I did play my game and it was an enjoyable game. But when time is short, I have other real world things I should be doing and the interest of playing the game is just not there. I have no choice but to setup a Player vs CPU game to ensure that all the fatigued and cold players are not in the starting lineups and then before the first pitch is thrown, switch to a CPU vs CPU game. Plus I can see this trend of playing CPU vs CPU games continuing for the next three to four weeks well into the 1st or 2nd week of September. But I am still very much in the playoff hunt and I will want to make sure I am playing all the games as the regular season comes to a close. If I can play about 130 or so of the 162 games, it will be a success year for me. After all the players don't play every day now do they. Well unless their names is Cal Ripken JR that is. LOL
I think I can understand how the real world teams play every day, day after day. After all it is their job. But I can't understand how some season ticket holders can attend all the games especially if the team is losing. It's just a little too much at times.
