Jeff thanks for another enlightening post.

A few observations / suggestions:

- Is the historical goals/game setting reset or updated each year in the off-season, or is the game fixed at the goals/game setting of the start year? I noticed a big difference in 1980's scoring between a game I started in 1947 and one started in 1981.

- Historical trades - for future versions are there plans to incorporate historical trades and transactions/signings, and the option to use historical transactions or not?

(As an aside I currently see NO trades or movement of any kind aside from expansion drafts.)

- Almanac - There are plenty of comments about navigation and interface already, but it should be said: one of the greatest joys of historical play is browsing the stats to see our alternate history. League and team stats from year to year at the click of a forward/back button, same as for yearly standings and playoff results, would be greatly appreciated. You've already got sortable player stats, so the addition of some filters (by team/all; by position; single year/career; etc.) would add a lot of value.

Thanks!
