You know Reg, for years guys have been doing all sorts of things for the game... Multiple stop, weights, custom boards, decals, customizing figures, adding hair, chin straps, face masks.... all in the name of
realism trying to make the game more like a
real game. Yet when it comes to things like penalties, fumbles and injuries, they run away. I guess these things make the game
too real for them to handle. I'm glad you have a positive outlook about it. I try and do the same with penalties and fumbles. If I had more players on my teams, I would add injuries as well. As it is, occasionally have a player who loses a BB, or maybe breaks a nose (3 times now on my Bozos). In those rare instances, I consider that player
injured and use another player in his place. Usually, the team suffers. Sometimes the substitute player actually plays better then the original guy. There's nothing like the element of surprise to make the game more interesting. Keep it up!
