So that means at the very least for every injury that occurs in my game it has around a 35% chance of being a season ending one.
I haven't analyzed the numbers from my leagues, but this is a good point. Although 25 season-ending injuries, after two months of play, seems like a lot. How many teams are in your league? Are they based in particularly cold-weather cities?
