1. Check roster/ratings
2. Hit the practice field for over 6 hours
3. Now I impose my will on the cpu and online rookies
4. After I win five online games in a row Franchise here I come.

Note online games are always fun the first couple months until people start finding cheese moves or plays.

It's funny how it starts off great and gets more and more corrupt as the season progresses. It's a blast starting off though no doubt.

My friend and I load up any new football game and play Saints vs. Cowboys at alternating stadiums. This year, I think we'll play here in Arlington. After that, we go through some interesting matchups that will occur during the regular season.

Edit Profile, Change Gamer Picture, and select your avatar.

Make sure you took a picture of it when you changed your avatar.

I mean what better way to start off by talkin smack on the game with a friend or just someone online, but iv'e already started talking the smack though and its april!!!
Yep, I spend hours in there... I just go straight there and run all the important stuff to see how the game reacts... PA, Deep Lobs, run plays, etc..etc... which is why I'm probably one of the few people that keeps asking for the quick replay feature in practice mode (L1 + R1) since I use it a LOT to take a close look at how the players react to certain things... etc..etc..
