That's what I thought.

Again, I've never controlled more than 1 team, but the poster who said he played a franchise with his kids really reinforced it: this is a bitter pill to swallow.

Makes no sense whatsoever.

You can LOL all you want, but I'm OK with something being arcady if it's an OPTION to turn off. I just don't want arcady to REPLACE realism. People should be able to make their franchise as arcady as they want or as real as they want. No sarcasm at all here.

I'm confused. Are you saying that a console can only have 1 Live Gold membership to it? That's not accurate. Otherwise, my kids could access Netflix without having to sign is as me.

Or am I misreading the question?

Lighten up Bucky, I am just having some fun with you considering our discussions in that other thread. No offense intended.

Its possible. My workaround only works if you dont care about XP.

It's really, really difficult to contradict anything you said.

No offense taken. It's an anonymous message board. Silly to go off the deep end at other members. I never really take it too seriously. Orgoos and I were going back and forth last year in that progression thread and I still love that guy. I really feel for him this year. He's really taking this news pretty hard.
