I never use recalc. What I do is set Injuries to Low and change the Talent Change Modifier (or whatever it is called) to 75, which lowers the chance of Talent Drops (and Improvements), but still allows players to get better or worse while keeping most of the point of having a historical league.

Got a question for you, Kelric.
What occurs to guys like Carlton who import (w/ Gambo DB) with very low endurance? These guys on recalc get their historic endurance levels set each season, so Carlton's endurance does indeed rise with recalc, but
since endurance has no 'potential', it seems pretty much stuck when it comes to the imported ratings when on no recalc. Same thing for speed, stealing, etc - all the ratings that have no potential aspect.
And so to me, this is where the 'No Recalc' has a deficiency. Otherwise I'd use it each and every time.
What I am doing now, however, is the 3-yr recalc with player development set to 133, so that allows some in-season change. However, what is sad is that players cannot just tank for their career (or become great) as the recalc puts them back in their historic zone.
