It's funny how different opinions can be. Of the 3 football games being released this summer, NCAA 08 is the only one I am not interested in at all, and I love NCAA football.

Good thing there are people out there to enlighten us philistines who can't see past such crafty and cunning deceptions.

C'mon Jmood. The attempt is great, but it is half assed. For those that hardly every play online, no franchise mode or multiplayer is more than half assed.

My statement wasn't directed at anyone. EA always loaded their game with features but didn't address some key game play issues. Some would rather the features while I want a better engine. I am happy EA football are dealing some of these issues in 08.

Why not just have everyone in the league list their top 50 players or something. As long as you have a draft order all you would have to do is make sure to cross off all the quarterbacks they have listed after they pick that position. So that way if you have Joe Montana you don't also get Dan Marino.

Sure, it's not perfect but I think that would be easiest.

Shouldn't someone at least play the game first. I spend most of my time off line in practice mode.

Just have your league do an offline draft on yahoo IM or AIM or MSN.

This is not a game killer...seriously.

Agreed but this game is focused to players that do play online. 2k already says they have low sales expectations, so obviously they are going for guys that are online gamers. Luckily I am that guy.
