My biggest grip is that MyCareer is WAAAY too involved. The mode itself is great, although I'd like for it to be a little more variable on choices I make, and players that I like or don't like to play with.
However, to play this mode you literally have to play all 82 games, plus practice, plus cutscenes. Every year I play to about the all-star break and then lose interest. If I skip games then I cannot take place in the off day event between that game and the next so I either lose sponsorships, stand-up a teammate or player for an off day event, or skip practice and get yelled at by the coach.

A few years back you could play the "key games" and sim the rest, make it to where I can play 10-15 regular season games without any punishment and get to playoffs, or big games. This way you can play a career, I'd rather hit free agency, or get a max deal than play a back to back in Utah and Milwaukee in a Tues Wed in January.
