[Skyboxer]

I could care less about real rookies. After I start my franchise it's my world, not the real world.
I think the option to allow this would be nice but I'm just saying I could care less.
I still want the option of a generic roster where there is no preconceived knowledge of players. Have a nice fantasy draft and go.

As far as "defending EA"
I don't see anyone defending EA.
For me it's simply how they are making the game and if I think I will have fun I'll buy it.
If I didn't enjoy it I'd simply not get the game like I did for numerous Maddens.

I really have zero desire or need to have a favorite hobby of mine become morphed into something that I need to constantly post about with words like : This 'Bothers... disturbs,, annoys,,, frustrates etc.. me"

Game you think you'll like.. buy.
Game you don't like.. post your thoughts and move on to something else.
Constantly repeating the same things over and over in multiple threads is something I'll never understand. (Not singling out anyone in particular.. just an overall generalization on what many do)
