Possible to Setup Playoffs?

[WSR]

I would like to play through the Playoffs that model the real life matchups. Is that possible with this game? I don't think so, but I may be missing this option. Thanks.

unfortunately it doesn't look like it. I was going to do this earlier (haven't played for a while) and was surprised there was no custom playoff option. Guess I just never noticed before. kind of disappointing

I'm going to start a 29 game season (saving it before the first game). and will keep simulating/reloading until I get something close I can play out.

That's what I've decided to do as well. Thanks for the reply!

Handicap the teams you don't want in the playoffs. Remove their star hitters and pitchers from the team.

When I was a kid I made my own street hockey goalie gear out of bleach bottles, cardboard, canvas, and mattress foam. Today, kids expect their parents to drive over to Walmart and buy them want they want. I don't mind having to create my own Playoff Mode. Has to do with my upbringing I guess.

Holy crap...I agree with baa
Simple....simple thing to do.
You can easily get the correct teams into the playoffs...just takes a little bit of ingenuity.
Get off your arses and do something yourself you lazy sods!

Disappointed this wasn't in the game this year. But I've been running a little MLB Playoffs 2009 simulation myself. For the NLDS/ALDS, I'm just playing exhibition games. But I noticed you can play 7 game series in Rivalry Mode. What is it all about? Does it just keep track of stats throughout the "series"? I've yet to mess with it, since the lowest number of games is 7 and the division series are only 5 games.
