Nope I don't like that idea at all. SDS would never do that because they'll lose a lot of players this way.

Imagine the freeze offs

Everyone knows that. My point is that going forward it should only exist as a platform for online competition games -- called coop for short.
Well, there is your mistake. The game already has a co-op mode and it does not mean that at all, so when you say coop the community is going to assume you are talking about the current mode and not just online head to head.
But in the end it does not matter because they would never do that.

You have a trend of being wrong when you criticize people. Perhaps the lesson you should draw from that is to avoid criticizing people, especially when in doing so you call them wrong!
In computer gaming, coop is short for "cooperative play." It means two people playing a computer game together, more often today using the internet for an online game. It wasn't always online as it originated with two people using the same console offline and with two controllers to play a game together. Most of the time, it was one human player versus another human player. But, in more recent times, especially with the advent of so-called shooter games, it morphed into two human players working together against the CPU, or in some cases, two human players working together against other human players.
While the idea of coop gaming being between friends, the online avenue took it into territory where people who didn't know each other could play, either in competition with each other, or as a tag-team working together. Ultimately, some games have advanced to the point where teams of people can play other teams of people online.
You knew full well the context of my suggestion and that it applied to coop play in the competitive games in MLB The Show. That was made clear since I made a clear distinction with games played in a friendly league, or games played against the CPU. I also clearly stated that DD should going forward be dedicated strictly to competition game play.
Here's some more advice. Be sure you are correct before calling other people wrong! You see, I played these games when they first came out, and even wrote a few computer games myself. This started in the 1980's and continued in one form or another until today. In fact, the first computer game I wrote was a space game written on a floppy disk for a PC back when I was a computer science student at NC State University, back in 1984.
So, I've seen all these various games develop over the decades. Something else I concluded is that I would much rather fly airplanes for a living than sit in a cubicle all day writing computer code. It wasn't a dig at those who did. Just a realization that while I enjoyed playing video games, I wouldn't have been too happy making a career out of making them.
One more thing this thread further confirms. Far too many of you just seem obsessed with disagreeing with people because you love to argue and criticize more than anything else in the world. That's really sad. Lots of room to merely make your point and move on, vice feeling the obsessive need to call others out, much less call them wrong or try to ridicule them.

Let's put it like this we all said no because it's a stupid idea and that would send this game backwards and no one wants that

Hard pass. I play 90% offline, so in your world I don't get to play DD.

I can appreciate that. I don't play DD either. This proposal doesn't require that the other game modes be changed. It instead revolves around the notion that online competition needs a uniform set of rules that offers a way for thousands of people to play in a controlled environment where individual skill determines one's level of success.
In fact, I don't advocate any changes to RTTS or Franchise as a result of this proposal. The only game mode change would be to add another mode named Friendly Play, which would be online, but would not be competitive since nothing other than winning or losing a game would be the reward.
Within this new Friendly Play mode, you have the ability to sign any player on day one. You're only limited to 26 players on your roster. The paradigm shift is that one only has to "grind" to outfit his roster for competition play. Other forms of online play don't require the grind to create your team, but does not provide the "rewards" that are based on getting players.
Have your choice -- compete for points to build a better and better team. Or play online for the fun of it with friends or versus the CPU where you decide how much talent your team has on it.

Here's where your wrong.
coop = animal pen
Co-Op or Co Op = competitive play between two people. -
I don't know if you are trolling or just astonishingly ignorant.
People like to grind to better their roster for offline play just as much, if not more, than those who prefer online play.

co op is by definition people on the same team

You have a trend of being wrong when you criticize people.
And you have a trend of being verbose.
