I like the eras idea, so in that case I vote for post-strike as a logical starting point.

Why not just draft any player from any era? That would be the most fun to see, IMO.

We did an all time draft once. But we just voted on the teams who would win instead of running them through a simulator.

I like starting off with a slightly smaller time period ('80-present or '90-present) and then expanding/trying something else next time.

That was pretty awesome... my team totally would have won it all if we ran it through a simulator.

Either post-strike or 1990-2013 seem to be the popular sentiment.

Shall we say post-strike? And then if it goes well we can follow it up with other eras?
