I agree with David, but I will also add that recalc provides sufficient variation to be interesting also. My 1972 Hank Aaron only hit .199 with 20 HR on one-year recalc, although his 1971 and 1973 seasons were very close to RL numbers. One year recalc is more likley to provide surprises than 3 year recalc in my experience. After using 3 year recalc for many leagues I now only use one year recalc with real transactions and real lineups and it's my favorite historical set-up.
