But you can't vote for your own players..... And it's not like any of the other player-oriented selections for NT or U21 NT are not homerism contests.
Well, my comment was taken serious when supposed to be tongue in cheek. Ok
But there are still problems IMO.
When it comes down to it, there will be managers who don't bother to vote.. which isn't a big deal.
Would I vote for a player from a team that wins but has less stats? Probably.
Would I vote for a player whose on a team run by someone I like moreso than a team that isn't? If the players are basically equal, yes.
How many managers really follow how players contribute to a team? Especially those of other teams. I'm willing to bet it's less than half at
the least, and that's pushing it. I certainly don't pay that much attention, not that I'm a good example of an good, attentive manager.
It seems you think the voting would be better if given to managers, and I disagree since everyone has a different vision of an all star, as with a HOFer or a MVP.
Only positive is that it would provide a little bit of fun, more utility to the game, which isn't a bad thing. But then again, does it matter. I don't believe the # of All Star appearances even show up on player pages. If the team got a bonus in merch or something, then I'd want some more fine tuning of the selections, but until then, who cares. Do what you want.
