Re: Do you guys play franchise with "your" team?

I always play with my Braves, and have never really thought about playing with another team. I'm in 2017 in my franchise that I started with last years version, and play every game using quick counts. The game to me still feels brand new and fresh to me this year. Normally I'm gearing up for Madden by this time of year, and I have it pre-ordered, but don't see myself putting the show down this year. I FRIGGING LOVE THIS GAME!!!

I usually use the Royals. Last couple years though I've started franchises with other teams now that we are actually good. Milwaukee is my team this year.

I always play as the Cardinals. I could never imagine playing as a different team. Between playing all 162 of their games plus Spring Training, and playing a good deal of minor league games, I couldn't imagine having time to play as a different team.

Re: Do you guys play franchise with "your" team?

I play with the M's mostly, but the last couple years I have had a secondary franchise going with an NL team also. Last year it was the Nats and this year it's with the Pirates. I like the ballpark in Pitt, plus I get to play in some stadiums that the M's don't normally play in. I get kind of tired of playing in the AL west stadiums.

Re: Do you guys play franchise with "your" team?

Playing using the Jays but I ran into this problem. Last week I was talking to a friend at work about the Jays.

Him:"Did you see that game last night?"

Me:"Ya great win. Did you see that 2 run dinger by Bautista to win the game?"

Him:"Huh, I thought they lost last night?"

Me:" Ummm....oh yeah..."

guess I'm getting too old, can't remember video game or real life

Re: Do you guys play franchise with "your" team?

I've played a franchise with my Cubs inn every version of The Show since I started playing the game in 2008. I also used the Cubs in previous MLB games, going back to Ken Griffey Jr Baseball on the SNES (which I believe was the first franchise based MLB game I had).

I will sometimes use the Mariners for a "super team" season, just to have fun, but I never get that deep into it.

Re: Do you guys play franchise with "your" team?

The only sports game that I use my team on is FIFA. The Cardinals are my baseball team, but I'm attached to the players in real life and I just wouldn't want to make roster decisions for them. Mike Trout is my favorite player, so I've been using the Angels and really enjoying it. I'm also considering doing a Phillies rebuild. Always had a soft spot for them. Only problem there is that I know Ryan Howard through a friend that played college ball with him and I might have to trade him away to rebuild. Lol!

The last time I didn't play as the Braves was in All Star Baseball when I used an expansion team from my state.
