I really appreciate your trying the file, and I also appreciate the feedback.

As Curtis said, it doesn't affect the frequency of injuries. Only the in-game setting does that.

If you want some more data, here are links to the injury logs for the JL and NPBL online leagues. Both have had injuries set to "low" this past season (in the JL, it's 2004; in the NPBL, it's 2032) and have been using my file. Both of these leagues' seasons are at their tail ends, so you should have plenty of data to figure injuries, relative to time and number of teams, and also data for the ratio of career-enders to non-career-enders. Please feel free to post any resulting numbers here, I'm sure many people would like to see it. Even though the sample size for your own league is small, you could compare it with those.

In my opinion, injuries set to "low" results in too few injuries. But in the league I commish (the JL), everyone has voiced strong opinions in favor of that setting, so we use it.
