Couldn't care less about this. One of the attractions of sports games for me is that I can get away from the ham-fisted and mostly amateurish storytelling in video games.

If you're going to do this sort of thing at least have the character be customizable. I suppose there is an audience demanding the mode, and I admit my tastes are certainly niche when it comes to what I like in sports games, but I don't see the value of a goofy looking interactive movie jammed into a sport simulation game. I could never get over how awkward, cliched, and plain janky looking NBA 2ks story mode was/is. It felt out of place in the game.
