ESPN R.I.P

I think a fictional league built from the ground up would be a great idea from T2, BK do you know what exactly the game will be (obviously it can't be college or pro).

All I ask of Madden this year, is they actually institute somewhat realistic run blocking schemes as opposed to the atrocity they tried to pass off as a run game last year.

Realistic playbooks and actual defensive schemes would be nice, but I won't hold my breath.

My understanding is that it will be a pro game of some sort, but I really don't have any details. I do know that there is work being done, I just have no real information on specifics.

Despite the fact I didn't initiate the thread only contribute to it, with that logic we should have had an MLB Slugfest forum. How about that baseball game for GC... where's a forum for that?

And an "ESPN" football forum, despite the fact the ESPN contract will run out this year doesn't make much sense. But again, only using the same logic that has been applied in the past.

The traffic for those game went down as the series was downgraded. Just as Inside Drive and Fever the traffic in those forums no longer existed

Actually you are using no where near the logic as those games. Not even close. It's about traffic, we don't have a forum for every single game out there.

Please get a clue.

Ironically, you ask me to get a clue when I just used your same logic back at you. Look in the mirror.

You're right it's about traffic, something fossen made perfectly clear in Steve's forum a while ago, not about the reasons you described.

But if you want to convince yourself it's other reasons, like you so poorly tried earlier, be my guest and continue to do so. Work is slow, and I need entertainment.
