Most definitely the former as well (except that I don’t do MP). And it’s not just sports sims, but all games as well. I know if I play MP or PBEM or whatever, it would not be any different. I never role play, even in role playing games. It is me against the AI (or Ais) in games like Civ4 or me against myself in games that I have to play with house rules. The reason, for me, is that I read a lot of history and non-fiction (including sports) – that is where I try to imagine what is was like. I don’t need games to do that (which, imo, does not do very well because of the mechanics), that would be silly for me.
