Thug gangster wannabes maybe.

I'll take a stab at this.

Normal gamer:
- Doesn't follow message boards about sports games, ever
- Never knew sliders existed in sports games
- Rarely plays more than one season of a dynasty ... and most of the times never even finishes that
- Doesn't care if the backup right guard for the Cleveland Browns isn't accurate
- In all likelihood, a casual follower of the actual sport
- Doesn't believe in sim-style play, nor do many of his (yes I said his) friends

My man crush on Ian grows by the day.

I really like that the team decided that the solution was to remove ALL animation speed compensations and fix their root causes. Why is this level of commitment and common sense so hard to come by?

Seriously, this is great news. Watching the new '10 models take the proper prep steps, etc, is pure joy. It makes the comparisons to '09 look ridiculous.

These blogs are a real treat, but I also think they're going to win over more customers. I'm teetering on the edge of making this a reserve/first-day purchase, and I haven't done that since '06. Keep up the good work!

do you see the way they act...like a bunch of punks. Nobody talks that much crap playing a videogame. They're a bunch of idiots.
