The concept of PBP's are fantastic, however, the execution gets a fat F. A good chunk of the fun in the finals is being able to get excited with your team and go through the ups and downs. These last SMJHL playoffs we had all the games simmed before I think the 3rd PBP was even out. It completely ruins the dynamic and also disables teams from being able to work together on potential line ideas to counter the opposing team's strategies.

Also, the majority of the PBP's suck because people only do it for the large TPE and put little to no effort into them.
