It isn't a bad shout, to make it at least feel a bit more accurate. It does feel sometimes like numbers are being pulled out of the clouds and posted in places. there
is a rather extensive list, especially for statisticians like myself and khucke and millions more that follow teams and players for these exact reasons, and then want to play a game that can simulate who they idolize.
Myself, I play historical, in the Expansion Era (65-80) to follow my heroes I idolized 40 years ago. You follow a sport you love for over 40 years, and you can see glaring gaps pretty quick.
