I would have figured by now ESPN would have been plastered all over the place, but i guess that wasn't part of the deal.

Why buy the license if you don't use it? I mean especially NCAA where you had Kirk, Lee and Nessler in the game for PS2...That's the kind of stuff that makes me shrug my shoulders. The same would be for NBA2k if they had the rights to their announcers and Craig Sager and just left it out after they bought the rights.

Well, I haven't been here as long as you. To help me understand, can you give me something else besides you just know? A link to a post, user name, more of an explaination... If it's not that difficult to see, I imagine it's not that difficult to point out. I assume you feel that way about folks in this post. I know it's 20 pages, but give me an example.

Or maybe think that it is pretty freakin' ridiculous that they cannot put refs in this game!

And it's not just about refs.....that's what you are missing. It's about the general lack of immersion/interaction/life that EA football shows. The lack of referees are just a byproduct of that problem.

this thread has gone quickly from being a discussion about the lack of referrees to just arguing for the sake of arguing.
