gopads02,
Well, I can't argue with the concept

I do agree it would have to be finely-tuned to effect only those players that have
overachieved or
underachieved though... a limited number of players - the "surprises" one way or the other.
On the issue of the Top 100 list, I have a different outlook than most, I think.
We have three ways to evaluate a player...
1. Statistics
2. Rating (if you don't have them hidden)
3. Talents
We also have two "ratings systems"...
1. The Blue/Gold Stars
2. The Top 100 list
I think it would be a huge mistake to end up with both rating systems telling you the same thing - yet part of this discussion centers around how to make the rating system (in this case th Top 100 list) more
accurate.
I think both rating systems (Blue Stars and Top 100 list) should in fact
vary. For ultimate realism and challenge, these two systems should be somewhat different in their results. To do that, we need two different methods to rate players - and
neither should really be correct. Follow ?
