Issue with DFS "Comparison Columns" data

Since it is so early on in the season I want to get the average and standard deviation values for players counting both this season AND last season. 

When I select "Past Games" and then "Per Game" and "Stdev" as options in the comparison columns no matter how large I set the input for number of games it will only calculate the average and standard deviation for games from this season. Is this the intended functionality for "Past Games"? If so is it possible to add functionality to include games from last season as well?

With that being said I also noticed that when I select "Past Days" instead of "Past Games" and input a large enough number that would extend back into last season, it appears that the "Stdev" calculation includes games from this past spring training and last season, but the "Per Game" calculation still only includes games from this season. If I can't get the "Past Game" functionality to extend into last season, I would be equally happy to see the "Per Game" for "Past Days" made to function like it does for "Stdev".

The only reason why I noticed this is because I also have the "Per Game" and "Stdev" comparison columns for "Full Season" as well, so it is easy to see when the average or standard deviation matches the calculation for this season only.

Yes, the past numbers do not go into last season, and I wonder if it should always do this or should it be optional? I imagine some users do not want it to extend into last.

What about the fact that the "Past Days" option for "Stdev" DOES include games from last season?

I'll take a look and see why this works differently.

Thanks for looking into it. 

For what its worth, I don't know about everyone else but I would personally like the option to include games from last season while still giving the option to others to only include games from the current season. If this isn't doable without exerting too much effort, then I understand.

That makes sense, and maybe a single checkbox that applied to all columns would do it.
