I actually think that having bots would be good for league parity. Maybe too good though, it's hard to say. There are definitely some teams out there that spend a LOT of time learning the ins and outs of the engine and finding exploits in the tactics and line formations. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it makes things less fun for the teams that don't have the time to invest in all the testing to learn the sim. Especially with the amount of GM jobs that are opening up. Making the league more balanced would be a good thing. If I knew of an exploit, I wouldn't mess with it because I feel that it would be pretty easy to figure out that it was me when all the teams blow except Seattle and our offense is completely optimized for me to score 100 points. I also just don't think it would be as fun to just dominate the sim knowing that I'm cheating. I'd lose interest and quit after a while.
