...? Are you serious?

Dead serious.

The players are given ratings for a reason. Using sliders negates those ratings to the users favor. If you suck at calling plays, it's okay, just change the sliders.

I guess I could understand a kindergartner, or toddler needing them, but not an adult.

Sliders manipulate the game. Theoretically, you could take a team like E. Michigan, and turn them into So Cal. I guess that's the "reasoning".

To me, it's a waste.

Oh, and another thing.....get rid of the difficulty levels. This is just as bad as the sliders.

These are the kind of guys that you just go click, click, click, Ignore on, because there is just no point arguing with that kind of thought process.

I'm new here, but I'll take a shot I guess.

The sliders are there to basically fix what is essentially wrong in the game on default. Main example would be interceptions. If you leave it on the default, you'll get waaaaaay more than is realistic, for both you and the CPU. Actually, I'd say its even moreso for you because if you play as the CB, you can snag 'em all day on default.

There's more, but on the whole the sliders are typically there to increase the challenge, not lessen it. Or, at the very least, fix a gameplay issue for those who need stats to be as realistic as possible. So actually, toddlers would want to leave it on default while adults would tune the game with sliders. Like a car I guess. As for difficulty levels.....well not everyone is a stick jockey, and not everyone is up to Heisman. Personally, I like AA. Heisman is frustrating to me, I guess because I suck. Who knows.

I'm not sure if you are really looking for an answer or just trying to create a stir but I hope I explained it well enough for you.
