Brilliant idea

I was thinking and year after year, playoff teams get tough blows with a huge injury that ruins their season. Which in turn, makes the playoffs not as exciting. Like who wants to see the Pistons beat up the Westbrook less Celtics teams of past? Not an exciting series.
Also, with the recent Zhou Qi 2nd sim injury retraction, players are able to get their injury time cut.
Here's my brilliant idea:
Write a certain amount of articles per year and at the end of the season, teams are granted with a special injury reward.
I write 10 articles, I am rewarded with 50% cut off of player injury reward.
Pros:
More articles written
More exciting playoffs
Less angry GM's
Cons:
None
I was thinking, if possible, we can start this asap. But just throwing this idea out there for the future. Something to think of.

If this is implemented I will quit the league. Always hated leagues that offer buffs for articles.
Just ends up with spam 100 word articles.

Nah, injuries are a part of the game. I don't support changing it by just writing articles.

There could be certain rules that we would have to follow.
Just wanted to throw this idea out there to see what people think, because year after year teams are ruined before the playoffs, which mean less exciting playoffs.
Just for the good of the league, that's all.

See for me injuries make this more realistic and I like the factor of can team x do it without Westbrook etc. I don't want to see perfect teams all the time.
Example is us. We have smart out until the playoffs and I like the thought it gives guys a chance to step up. Can Jennings hold down the spot or will Ingles show him up as a rookie.
Makes it exciting when planning and seeing Sims.

I mean yeah, I get your point. Definitely. Injuries are part of the game.
Just with this game, injuries happen too often and too much. It isn't realistic at all. Every sim someone is injured.
Will Dennis at least agree with me here? C'mon bud.

Hell no, injuries add to the strategy of running a team and make it more interesting.

Probably the worst idea I've ever heard, sim league or not. Just terrible. I thought you were joking too until you tried defending yourself.

This is even dumber than the articles to buff prospect attributes in NLL that one draft class. I didn't think that was possible.
