As far as lag. Ugh, hit or miss. You can play an almost lag free game and next play one that looks like it's freeze framed every....well, frame.

Watch for the on-line sign ups here as we don't put up with nonsense. This year it was HOF, Classic Pitching, all aids off, NEW baserunning. Lots of fun (if you didn't get lag).
Thanks for your input

The reason I ask is I come from helping run a 2k7 league(won't get into 2k8) that ran 6 seasons long. We had a great group of guys and I have never had as much fun playing a sports game. Also did the whole High Heat baseball league thing on the PC way back when. Hopefully I can link up with some vets of The Show even though im the rookie around here.
