Oh what the hell!
Me Six!
I agree with this thread 100% also. The bottom line is franchise mode used be be a deep mode that would keep me and my friends hooked for a whole year, when the next Madden came out. Now it is a watered down experience and it was way too lame for me to keep playing. I just couldn't! To me franchise is where this game is at. That is really the only way to re-live or re-create what we see every Sunday.
