pstrickert is on the Beta Team. I worked with him years ago on PBP and News Stores. When he does a job, it is always very well done.

If pstrickert had the coding he needs, the recaps would be done very well.

There are a lot of elements more important than recaps in the game.
Rightly so, OOTP should concentrate it's time on the most important elements.

News stories and recaps are low priority.
Definitely agree, they're good for what resources are available for that part of the game. As a journalist I'd love to be involved in helping to improve this kind of thing, but I understand it's a low priority.
