If you've ever given your project team an actual deadline of "in the next couple of weeks" than you have a very fortunate, lucky project team. And why is it ludicrous to defend EA on something? I'm sick of this attitude that you have to criticize the gaming companies for everything otherwise you're just a stupid fanboy who doesn't know any better.

Exactly. I, for one, would much rather wait an extra couple of weeks for the final roster moves to be made (guys sent back to juniors, etc.) and get a much more accurate set of rosters rather than have an almost useless roster update rushed out just to placate the impatient masses.

I have no problem calling a gaming company out when I feel that they're in the wrong, but in this instance, EA does not deserve all of the bashing it has received.
