I strongly agree. Quick starts, or slow starts, should be recognized in the RT game. If you want to wait to "smooth" these differences you should just play TRAD.

Teams lucky enough to draft these quick starters have the ability to take advantage of the stats or try and trade them while their value is high. Over the course of the season the best teams will still perform better.

I feel 4 weeks of stats should be representative enough to start the league. Games should start by May 1 or May 8 at the latest.

The uncertainty in the RT leagues is why I gave up playing TRAD. The more we differentiate the RT leagues from TRAD leagues the better in my opinion.
