I will second that idea.

I play using full modern 3D and I have the same question about why we have to have "real life" stats included in those info boxes.

I started my historical world in 1987 and I am now in June of 1989, but I let the OOTP engine take over development and or changes so any real life stats will have nothing to compare against since players have been evolving on their own for two plus years now in my world. I would be fine with your suggestions about putting current year stats on that line, or if we could somehow customize those player info boxes completely.

Minor issues to be sure and I am in baseball heaven rolling through my world day by day so I have no issues / complaints at all.... but it does kind of seem odd to see the real life stats line in my historical career game.... I guess if you were simply replaying one year it could be useful, but for those of us who start a historical game and then play out into our own version of reality into the future it seems like a moot point to see historical numbers in the mix.

Love the game - love the 3D!
