So thoroughly enjoyed this, Ja. Thank you.
Look, I can be hard on Madden because I have played it for years. On and off, mind you, and not very well. If you have disdain for the game due to a lack of competition, I agree with you. NFL, please cure this after the next contract expires.
However, for those of you who have disdain for this "game" because it is not real I feel bad for you. There is a great amount of joy derived from actually controlling and strategizing the action, with fairly realistic graphics that put you in the middle of everything.
It has its warts, yes, but in the wake of either writing or talking about this team as you wait for Sundays this just adds a pleasant additional option.
GO BILLS!
