Agreed. My point was simply that improved presentation shouldn't be dependent on whether they have the ESPN license or not. If the gameplay lends itself to capturing the nuances of the sport, you can have great presentation. Look at MVP, for example. The ESPN license may benefit EA more from a marketing standpoint rather than tremendously enhancing it's games with fantastic presentation.
