I also feel telling someone how many times they can do something or taking it away all together is just as ridiculous..... so where can a happy medium be reached on that example?
This is why I rarely have a problem with how folks play. The toss is broken and will be until they implement run fits & engaged player mobility. As is, we don't have the tools to stop the play the way it's done in the NFL. What Madden does instead is make it easier for OLBs to disengage & have CBs tackle better than they should. Tosses work & don't work for all the wrong reasons.

I think the medium is playing like minded folks. If you're the type of player that wants to win at all cost, taking advantage of the game's shortcomings, own it & play folks that feel the same. "Sim" heads should stick to playing themselves as well. For online folks, there needs to be a way to communicate this.
