On the team select screen ... do the team helmets and jerseys load up as soon as soon as you cycle through them or do you have to wait a second or 2?

If you have to wait it's most likely an issue with your XBOX. A lot of the first wave of XBOX's that were released have crappy DVD-ROM drives.

Certain games may seem to load smoother ... it all depends on how often the game loads something off the DVD. In this case, ESPN NFL loads sounds and cutscenes from the DVD after every play.

That DVD drive is most likely the culprit. Get a new XBOX or look up one of those XBOX repair sites to replace the DVD drive yourself.
