First time in probably 15 years that I will not be purchasing a new iteration of an EA football game. Even bigger, as I don't see anything else on the EA release calendar that interests me, it looks as if 2008 will be the first year since 1993 that EA will not receive a single dime from my wallet. I doubt that I am alone in this.

I doubt you are either. I'm not too concerned with the sliders myself, but I certainly understand the frustration. Really, providing constructive feedback (as most seem to be doing, overall) and speaking with your wallet is the only thing anyone can really do, at this point. I'd like to think there is a rational explaination for all this, but I don't know. It's never dull around a Madden release though, that's for sure
