What I think some of are you missing is that this didn't occur in his franchise. HE is playing superstar mode and his team made this deal. This is a unique issue not just another franchise trade and player logic issue. He can't even control the moves made by his team let alone crazy stuff by others thats why Race for the Heisman and Super Star mode lost me from the start. I like the behind the curtian workings of a college or pro teams not fluff

In my franchise, Eagles cut McNabb "signs with Cowboys" and drafted Kolb from Houston and has a great year, then T.O."signs with the Broncos like everybody did that off season" gets hurt then get's cut, for salary cap reasons and the Eagles are still good.

Incredible... this **** happens in ESPN last year and everyone goes ballistic (including myself). Happens in Madden this year and no one seems to care....

I just got a copy of Madden for the PS2 (free) and while the game def. is improved, it just still doesn't seem to have the legs anymore.

Still looking forward to the X360.... and if THAT is a disappointment, I'll hold out for PS3.

*grumble*

Cutting (or trading for that matter) a high-priced player with a lot of unamortized signing bonus left doesn't create cap room, it restrains it. Unless of course the fact that he was cut late in the year means the penalty applies to the next season's cap. But, either way, you'd be losing a great player and hurting your cap situation in the short term. But I think the penalties are screwed up in Madden or at least they used to be. I used to trade players for picks to create cap room and not incur penalties. That can't be done in real life.

I know very well how the salary cap works, I probably know it better tha you do. What he didn't explain was what year it was in. I guess I need to type everything that is in my mind, not blaming you, but you weren't reading my mind there. I guess I was thinking that if he was a few years down the road then yes by cutting manning the colts might save on the cap in having to sign somone to replace an injured player. Obviously whatever the reason, its a bad AI move. Anyways, sorry I didn't better explain my reasoning.

So to anyone, if you do the 32 team, and then cpu assist on all teams you don't want to control, do you get notified before any moves/transactions are made? So you could block a trade, or release, or signing, and make a more logical decision? Or does the cpu make these moves anyways since you have the cpu assist on?

I haven't seen anything like this yet, just because someone says something doesn't always means it's true.

If it sucks on Xbox, will it really be that much better on PS3?
