Single player modes like franchise are still popular because developers haven't come close to perfecting online franchise modes in sports games. Not only have they not perfected them, they haven't even made them functional for the most part in games like NHL and MLB.
When Rammer came here and spewed statistics about the online franchise mode not being as popular as they had anticipated at EA NHL, he failed to recognize that the mode itself was very buggy, lagged, and contained a menu system that was so cumbersome it ruined the experience for most users to the point that they gave up on the mode altogether.
If these gaming companies would allocate the proper resources into online play the user demand would likely follow. There will always be a contingency of players that prefer to play along against a CPU, but that desire has historically stemmed from a lack of ability and option to do otherwise.
