You've taken the Lake Erie challenge . . .
What about the Dan Snyder/Al Davis/Jerry Jones challenge?
Give your owner some personality.
Have the FOF community come up with a list of things that a meddling owner who knows just enough football to be dangerous may say:
"I like our starting RB--keep him on the team until he retires"
"I don't like what our starting QB just said about us in the media; cut him."
"We need more fun 'n gun. Pass the ball at least 75% of the time this year."
"Pass rushes win games. Get the best DE available in FA this year."
"We need a Super Bowl win within the next 3 years."
"I expect this team to make money. I need at least $100,000,000 profit within 2 seasons."
etc.
When you have a decent list complied, put them in a hat and pull one out every year. You will have to comply with the owner demand for that year (and for however long it lasts) or be fired.
This challenge would keep things fresh by forcing you to deal with choices that you would not have made.
It strikes me as a bit too contrived for your tastes, but it is a challenge that I have toyed with taking myself a few times, so I thought I would throw it out there for your interest.
