Default Sudden collapse

Here's a new one, at least for me. I'm in the middle of a game, and suddenly I notice that one of my linemen is leaning. I pick him up and look at the prongs, and the 2 in the front left corner are collapsed, bent over, tucked under..... ka-put! I've had teams for over 35 years, played lots of games and never have I seen this happen. Now you have to remember that I don't tweak my bases, at least not by much. No squeezing and flattening the prongs, just a gentle touch here and there to get them to go more or less where I want them to go. No excessive weights are added, all my teams are 3.2 or less. I'm at a loss as to why this happened. I tried CPR and mouth to mouth, but alas, the prongs just didn't want to repsond. I had to pull the plug and call it dead.

Anyone else have this happen to them? Standard Miggle rookie base, untweaked, just a BB for weight, working fine for 3 quarters then the prongs go limp???? ARRGGHHH....
