Honestly, I don't know what it is. I don't understand the point to not playing a foorball game like a football game. Why is it that some people who play online need to play like it's an arcade game? Why is it so hard to play a sports game like it's played in real life? And I'm not talking about players who are genuinely good at the game. I mean those tools that kick the ball to the 50 yard line so your TEs get the ball. I meant the guys who run no huddle  constantly and go for it on 4th down no matter what. I think it's because if they played the way sim players play, they'd have their hats handed to them. Personally, I don't like playing those guys. It's not a challenge, it's frustrating. I don't play with my headset on unless it's a friend of mine because worse than their gameplay, I can't stand their little 12 year old voices giggling like a bunch of grade schoolers who just heard someone mention a fart in class. They're annoying. But I do like winning against them. 9 times out of 10, they'll quit when they start to lose. Then I laugh like a ******* and finish the game against the computer securing the win anyway. And that way at least I can play a decent game. Seriously, if it's so important to be in the top 20 players on a video game that you won't play an actual game, you need to get a girlfriend.  I don't like to play against the computer in sports games. That's why I pay for LIVE. But it seems every year there are more of these toolbags in the game. I guess there's no way of getting rid of them, though PSN found a way to do it with The Show. Banning accounts of those who glitch or cheat. Either way, I'll keep playing and if I run into those types, I'll continue to make them qiut in the 2nd quarter. However, I do find the comments they send me via xbox live messaging entertaining. I find it funny how they get tough when the security of annonimity is there. I can't really complain though. In 31 games played, most of my opponents have been genuine players. They make the game fun. I don't mind losing to people who play the game the way it was intended. That's why I play in leagues. You get classy opponents every time. So cheesers (I don't really get why they call it that, I find it almost embarrassing to call them that) get ready for a high DNF and thank mommy and daddy for paying for your opportunity be somebody. Even if it is only on the internet.

Kdiddy...I'm not saying don't use it. There are definitly times when it's great and works..What I mean is that it's B.S. to use it every single play of the game. I play sim and like to play against others that play sim. I may be wrong, but I've never seen a real football game that was run 100% no huddle.

The only thing I disagree with in your little rant is the no huddle deal. The no huddle offense is a big style in football and if you can use it to your advantage you force the defense to keep bad match-ups on the field then do it. Otherwise I agree that I hate the 50 yard kick offs and going for it on 4th down.

I have been playing online since it started. And I dont think the way some of these kids (some adults too) will change their ways. What I do is have a bunch of people in my friends list and play them exclusively if I want to have fun.

I tried to play random this year (10 games total) and about 6-7 are great games eventhough I lost some. They are added on my list so I can play them again.

Lastly, I feel your pain but it is what it is Bro, its a video game and we can only do the best we can to get the the best experience while playing it 'straight' ..if you want a game hit me up
