Classic Webcast still broken when watching Replays of games

In a multiplayer league, I download the file for the week of games that had just been simulated. The current date is June 17.

Then I go to watch the replay on "Classic Webcast." I am trying to watch a game from June 11.

The webcast screen displays the team records and statistics from June 17. It spoils the entire game, and ruins all suspense.

This is the bread and butter of a multiplayer text sim. And yet... it is completely unusable?

This would be such an easy fix- either have the stats/records reflect the date of the game being watched, or omit it completely.

We want to be able to read the webcast of our games without having our records and stats spoiled for us by the very screen we are watching.

There is no advantage to seeing current records and stats when watching an old game... this ruins all suspense and build up, the entire thing a sports text sim is based off of.

Completely bewildering that it is still like this.
