Giving the year (like you do with NFL passing yards) might might this easier - it'd help to know if I'm trying to think of someone who just retired vs. an old-timer.

Probably a bad idea to expect it to update every day during the season. Maybe a note could be added at the top, stating the date as of which these stats are current?

can we get an update? AI Bryant and Oneal all moved up. Maybe by the end of the season we can get an update.
