I have a complete disconnect. I have already begun writing EA Sports letters about the lack of coverage in "ESPN Magazine" in the game.

Please note first that I was kidding about whether or not you realize it is not real. Secondly, my problem is learning how to hook up the units and then after 6 hours of that, I can not find where to turn it on. I am the poster child for not being able to set the clock on a VCR. I did however finally learn to set the clock on my microwave. Now if I can just learn to cook with it.
And come on Blog, almost all of TV today is reality. I have just about quit watching. The last thing I want is the real world mixed into my entertainment. When I do not want reality on TV I used to watch Dan Rather but they got rid of him.

If you think reality TV is "real," you are incredibly naive.

You mean those Survivor folks are not in constant peril?????? What if the camera man or make up artist could not get to them in time if something happened.

Then you get what many on CNN know as "Christiane Amanpour" Disease.. yuck
What we obtain too cheap.. we esteem too lightly. It is persistence alone that gives everything its value.

Well, now, in fairness to mrydel, that depends on the book, television program or movie. This thing will always be a game, and no matter how good Willis is on cyberspace, it does not translate to snaps on a football field, where he will start the real season with exactly zero for his college career.

I just got the impression that people were going to start dissing Martin for all the fumbles.

No, it is just funny, because, if anything, the game reflects the makers' opinions of the players. And yes, Martin fumbled in each of the two games I played last night. And Chase catches nearly everything. I actually had him in the corner of the endzone on a deep out ... he went up and got it-it was very reminiscent.

No, I was wondering more about the game. It seems that more fumbles happen this year. Nothing about DeMyron at all.

Help me on this since I am totally ignorant on these games. Are the fumbles and catches made or not made due to the ability of the game player or due to the program of the the game. It seems that if it is all programed already that there would be no skill in playing. Or is it a combination of the 2?
