Always good to hear your take on things, RonCo. Although the number of incidents have been reduced, OOTP still has - I think - players arising in league creation (and others from various sources, but I think this one has been the culprit) who are older and possess a wide gap. I'm pretty sure you and I have discussed this before. An at-peak or older player, 28-35 with a 28/78 kind of range. Coupled with age, regardless of when the player is evaluated, you can't really call this guy a "rapidly growing" any longer, can you? In fact, he's likely stalled out, particularly at later ages, and will only see that potential realized in spotty performances and single games; the latter more rationalization than data-driven, but you get my point.
