I'll never know why I chose to open this particular piece of news

Nothing too unusual, we've all seen articles similar to this, and yet I was compelled to dive deeper, maybe I could discern why there would be concern from insiders about problems in the clubhouse

Maybe its his outspoken nature, or his particular stance on social issues. Would the history page provide any further insight?

Interesting, just last season he went for 5 hits in a game against the very team he signed for. My spider sense tingling I decided to check out the box score...

And lo and behold this beauty of design presented itself to me

"It was like I was hitting little league pitching," Masters said...

Now I can't say for certain that his quotes after this game is the impetus for the news article generated by his contract signing...

But I know what I believe and what I believe, what I know, is that OOTP17 just justified its cost for me many times over.

Because even if the game created the article simply due to his personality ratings, the very depth and complexity this game presents allows for a creditable history upon which to justify, or speculate upon, actions months or even years later. Absolutely fantastic and because it can be said enough: Excellent work Team OOTP!

If you have experienced something similar, something subtle yet amazing please share it with us!
