So far I have had some pretty good games, but I am using 10, if you're interested I use simulation to handle field goals,punts and kick offs.
My question to the community is with madden 11 if I decide to buy is coach mode the same as 10? and do they still have simulation in it.

Thanks for your help and I hope that those with handicaps can find some way to enjoy this to, I was lucky.
Sorry about you having a stroke, but how is Madden the first thing you thought about when you had the stroke?

It wasn't, my family was and getting quality medical care, when you are released from the hospital it's about what can you do for yourself like brushing your teeth and washing your body.
Believe me video games was the least of my problems, I just started playing again as my strength began to return and I started to learn to how to do things again. It also part of the rehab program to try and enjoy things that you use to do before you had the stroke. Life does not end if you survive a stroke or heart attack it makes you stronger and my love of playing video games is just a piece of getting back to normal or as close to it.

Keep working hard at rehab and hopefully you will recover. If that doesn't happen then there are other solutions.

Bro aint nothing wrong with you wanting to play...any true gamer will always play

My aunt had cancer and it NEVER stoped her from doing the things she loved. Never let weak people (fhhs63) discourage you...because those are people who would roll over and give up given the same fate.

Full respect to you my friend. People like you help inspire others. I mean you suffered a stroke, but it hasn't stopped you doing some of the things you love, and you continue to become stronger. I salute you my man.
