Not nitpicking, but he slipped the defender (LB) like he was a ghost or something. Hopefully, there's some slider for this.

You see, even BE knows that Portis will not slip pass Roy Williams (that's who it was) like that.

Went into Gamestop today where I had previously pre-paid in full for ESPN(49.99 + Tax). Told them the price dropped and I wanted the diffeence back. They checked the computer and they said "it dropped to 19.99!!!".
Got the difference back and all is good...

VC needs a late July/ early August (before Madden) release date, along with the $19.99 price, to maximize the effectiveness of their marketing strategy. A release date after Madden will only hurt sales as Madden will be flying off the shelves with ESPN vying to be heard and recognized two weeks later. An early release date will also influence gamers to anticipate an ESPN release first instead of the Madden release, thus taking away some of the hype and media frenzy from the EA title.

But that would mean innacurate rosters, and for people such as myself that dont update the rosters....thats a big no no. A mid to late August release isnt the end of the world.

Ahh so you are being selfish. Wanting an August release just because you don't have online. How about a July release and a roster update in OXM or something?

July 28th or Aug 24th...the rosters will be cut off, around right now or towards the end of June either way right?

About the rosters. As long as they put all the guys in the NFL in the game and add all the ones they don't know about in the FA pool I don't see a problem since you can edit the rosters how you want. Just make the moves. Additionally I hope they pull an NFL FEVER and provide UNLIMITED Create a player slots, well of course that would be for Xbox and maybe for PS2 if you have hard drive.
