Can someone please explain Multi-Player Franchise in ESPN?

I have the game but I noticed on the ESPNVideogamesite that you can have Multi-Player franchise dose that mean I can manage and draft my own team and play my brother with his own managed and drafted team? Thanks

Yeah, you can have more than one team in the same franchise. That's basically all it is.

There is a franchise main menu showing like calendar, front office, options, gameplay, save/load, quit, etc., and if say you are the Niners, then you will have a Niners desktop background for your computer and some pics in your office and stuff.

Anyways, if you are controlling, say, the Niners and the... Seahawks, you have to be at the main menu, and press R/L, and then you will be in the Seahawks main menu. It is very noticeable because of all of the Seahawks stuff.

Don't worry... it's still the same franchise. The only thing I'm not sure of is whether you can play ahead of your brother or not. In other words, if you can play week 2 while they are still in week 1. Doubt it though.

I find it much easier to just save two separate Franchise Files if you like to play with two teams. This way you are not forced to play both Franchises in the same week, you don't have to worry about selecting one team over the other when you play each other, and it is easier to keep your two cribs separated and in order for team-specific themes. Also, your milestones and accomplishments will be for that team only. Not combined for both. i always thought that Multi-Player Franchise was a bad idea. This game proves it.
