is what kills it. They have to appease the casual crowd first with the BS, but we all just want a great football game first.

How about we get a petition going for:

Formation subs
Custom playbooks
Pre-game/post game shows
Player warm-ups
Refs and the chain gang

After this EA can ad all the fluff they want.

Count me in. And it won't change a thing, the marketing department runs their show.

Not only does that game preach realism and has good sales numbers. Numerous people such as myself have bought PS3's just to play that 1 game. Imagine the back of the box with a list of features: -Gameday Analysis -Unprecedented Presentation and Atmosphere -Unprecedented Pool of recruits with accurate attributes -Revolutionary Sim Engine deisgned in association with Front Office Football:The College Years. -College Coaches Association Real College Coaches walking the sidelines -Players play to their real abilities. -Real College Playbooks with top notch AI decision making(Meaning AI will know when to scramble and when to pitch the ball) -NCAA 2011, let the chess match begin. It doesn't have to have gimmicks. The gameplay is close now they just have to strip the gimmicks and add some core concepts to the off the field items.

I agree.

First they need to focus on the gameplay because without gameplay nothing else matters.

And to your list let's add equipment.

Na, hell na, screw that bull!, just play the game. No need to be picky. No need for this girly petitions. EA make great games, if you don't like it, don't play their games, it's plain and simple

I agree 100%, with the addition that they take out all this "Accelerator Content" that first of all shouldn't be in the game at all, and secondly shouldn't cost an extra $20 or whatever it is when we've already spent $60 on the game itself.
