Ain't that the truth.

As much as I'd love to play every pitch of all 162 games, my reality is that I don't have the time for that between work and family obligations and children. Plus, as much as I love baseball there are other games I want to play with my game time. I figure when I retire I will dive into that every pitch 162 game franchise.

So in the interim I do a mix of playing full games, quick counts, quick manage, quick manage where I cut in at key moments (i.e. two runners on with two outs , down by 1 and have the number 8 hitter up or something similar). Also mix in some player lock. It allows me to experience every game and have a large amount of control of the outcome and still allow a franchise to progress.

quality over quantity. which is why I dont mind if I spend 2 & 1/2 hours on 1 game, or wrap it up in under 45 minutes playing. sometimes quantity is mistaken for quality but sometimes less is more.
