Here's the 9th circuit court of California's opinion from their ruling in which they rejected EA's first amendment defense (the same defense those other cases used):
"In NCAA Football, EA seeks to replicate each school's entire team as accurately as possible. Every real football player on each team included in the game has a corresponding avatar in the game with the player's actual jersey number and virtually identical height, weight, build, skin tone, hair color, and home state. EA attempts to match any unique, highly identifiable playing behaviors by sending detailed questionnaires to team equipment managers. Additionally, EA creates realistic virtual versions of actual stadiums; populates them with the virtual athletes, coaches, cheerleaders, and fans realistically rendered by EA's graphic artists; and incorporates realistic sounds such as the crunch of the players' pads and the roar of the crowd.
EA's game differs from reality in that EA omits the players' names on their jerseys and assigns each player a
home town that is different from the actual player's home town. However, users of the video game may upload rosters of names obtained from third parties so that the names do appear on the jerseys. In such cases, EA allows images from the game containing athletes' real names to be posted on its website by users."

Hold on..so urs saying the court is holding EA responsible for what I do at my home with my own game? I don't see the ruling that way..I see it as the court is holding EA responsible for "cloning" college players..same height, weight, age, hometown, same equipment, and same playing number...by ur belief Madden should remove "create a player" as well?...what I believe Madden will never do is have a draft class which appears to be the same draft class as future classes..which is why I believe they went to random classes now to combat any issues..also regarding what others have said about confidence rating and free agents..some are looking at it as almost "learning" the system (ie playbook)..why I would like for in season free agents players to have low confidence..just my two cents on both topics
