The ESPN overlays are just a crutch for their absolutely horrid presentation execution. All of the commentators have way too much dead air, along with them sounding way too scripted. During the halftime and post time shows, Rose just randomly stops what he's saying after each statement. He talks like he should keep going, but for some reason just randomly stops on a dime. It makes no sense. The stitching technology in other EA Sports titles is non existent also. I know I'm being super negative about this game, but I have every right to be as such. Bring on the hate.... :-)
