Well since this thread is somewhat active again I'd like to link to my post on the subject:
http://www.operationsports.com/forum...n-debates.html
I made this thread pretty much in response to the debate going on in this thread. The reason I didn't simply post it here was because I didn't want to get labelled as being on one side of the debate or other. I'd like to think I have some new ideas that could really help the game. Basically I tried to make a system where you'd have the best of Madden 06/07 progression without the main negative (everyone on your team becoming superstars).
