the pace of bb is ok, it's an online game to be played in the long run. being somewhat slow, it also means that if you are unable to login for a couple of days you won't screw your team up forever. the only thing i think should be tweaked is the offseason, sometimes you get 2 weeks without much going on and this is not cool even if you are used to it and are playing your 10th season or so. i wonder how many managers let BB go in the first weeks because they create their accounts during the offseason and their teams are idle... in the beginning you want action, if you don't get that it's easy to demotivate.
