How much influence on preseason?

[dafranchiser]

I need all of your opinions on this one... I'm back from a long drought of not being on DC, and I'm wondering how much influence the preseason should have on my franchise. As of now, I'm planning:

1 story for each preseason game
Preseason standings and results
League News
Unforseen articles (i.e. injuries)

What do you guys do? In my stint as #1 in the NFL section last year, I think the extra preseason work killed my franchise...therefore, I'm cutting out the recap and final preseason stats...should I leave out any of the afore-mentioned?

I didnt do any of it

I didn't do any either, preseason is pretty useless.

What I usually do is just do an overall recap of the preseason: what the team's record was, any significant improvements or performances by individual players, winners of major position battles, and any major/season ending injuries that may have happened around the league.

Examples:

2005 - www.dynastycentral.com/dynasty/display_news.asp?ID=35884&dynasty_id=7739&year=2006

2004 - www.dynastycentral.com/dynasty/display_news.asp?ID=32474&dynasty_id=7739&year=2005

All right, here's what I've decided to do...

#1 - Eliminate any form of league news on my website...

#2 - Keep standings, scrap results...

and, #3

Write short recaps for each game in one article, name major NFL signings/injuries, and my team's pre-season acquisitions...

Thanks for the help...you've all made getting back into it much easier...
