Someone can say the OL needs better blocking and start a discusssion on that. Then we start getting "It's been bad for 7 years! EA doesn't get it ..I'm not buying it.... Bring back 2K.." Then the thread gets sidetracked and a lot of good things lost due to a locked thread or buried by the countless threads that with a little time to use the SEARCH function would eliminate. Is Madden near where I want it? Not close. It's just I'm tired of the same rinse repeat posters that do nothing but throw out negativity with no substance or feedback to make the game better. My future wish: Better OL/DL blocking, a lot more atmoshpere (Players coming and leaving the field, freaking trash blowing on the field on windy games), I want to "feel" the game as much as play it. Right now it still feels like a video game of Madden and not a game of football. Will it get where I want it some day? Have no idea. I just know posting hate just for the sake of posting hate won't get us there.

I agree with your post and I just wanted to comment on the bold. I have no way of knowing any posters intent for certain, so there very likely may be some posting to hate for hate sake. However, I understand how it is to just need to vent about the state of NFL gaming. I really appreciate OS because it provides not only an outlet to share ideas with like minded gamers and be exposed to different POVs, it's also I a great place to "scream at the wall", within the TOS of course, lol.

On a side not, with all seriousness Mods, can we please get the word "perfect" censored on OS?
