Depending on "luck" is gambling and going for it is a strategic decision. I don´t really see the point in the "ooooh, my old player is all of a sudden worthless" claims - that´s why he carries his age. You have to expect "random downs", even in an extreme outcome. Pretty ... expectable. Guess some people have to ...

(1) ... think twice before buying old guns.
(2) ... invest some money in a coach with the special ability "career extension" (or whatever it´s called in english).
(3) ... expect a valuable player from the start of the season beeing a useless one come playoffs.

We need the bunch of old men to become worthless at some point, so that there´s a "loss" of talent, else the see of high skilled players will sooner or later overflow. And the more "surprising" and even radical this might happen, the more people get interested in training some mid-20ies for their own use, instead of just viewing the young guns below 23 as money machines and the players above 29 as the real stuff for playing.

i don't want the opposite, i am also think the bb should reduce the avaible talent. I just don't like the randomes in downs, which differes from downs close to nothing up to 3 full skills. Maybe it don't have to be really predictable, but i think something in the range 0,1-0,3(change numbers here closer or a bit higher to the current average downs), or real constant down would be preferable at least for me.

And also maybe down in all skill, since it looks for me that you just loose something at one skill at each week, instead of your overall ability.

Edit: but it seems that must people like the big random effect on it ;)
