Shitting on the sim engine we've used very successfully for fifty seasons, whether its because you want to promote the switch to FHM or some other, personal reason counterproductive and unwise. Anything that tends to invalidate or belittle the league's long and proud history is hurting us at a time when we can ill afford it.

Just one opinionated loudmouths view here

I don't think there's any reason to discredit the long history of the league. It's just that it kind of ended at S50 in my heart. The flaws that were exposed this past offseason are very serious, and make it hard to care about a league using STHS anymore. That doesn't take away from the history the league built up over 50 seasons. It's that history that makes this all so much more frustrating. In my opinion though, the fingers should be pointed at the people who insisted on exploiting this flaw, and not the people who are upset with the fallout. I'm with you though on the history of the league, and preserving that, but I think there is room to criticize STHS without bad mouthing the SHL.
