Commentary Improvements?

I know there are lots of truly annoying issues with the game that really need attention (especially those that end in crashes).

However, as someone that plays every game, I would really appreciate it if commentary could get fixed sometime soon. Since it is a text sim, we rely on text to paint a mental picture.

OOTP allows this and I realize they are over a decade into it but a lot of what was added in later iterations focused on comments that were "nice to haves" (e.g. the batter has something in his eye; ok, he's ready to step into the box). However the basics were always there to paint the picture of where the ball was hit, that it was thrown, that the runner was out, etc.

Can we at least get to that level in generation one of FHM? At least tell me who has the puck, who the pass goes to/who broke it up, and more info on the penalties. When you play out games now, you see an event (shot, face off, etc) then wait several minutes until something else happens.
