It sucks!!! When it is a close game, the tension is building, you just scored a TD to pull within 3, 8 minutes to go in the game....can't wait to see how it ends......and then you kickoff to the opponent and see that the next possession button is greyed out becasue the team just ran the ball down your throat to end the game!!

Might just be me, but I like to watch the game to the bitter end, but when the "P" goes grey, I know there is no point to watching the rest of the replays.

It's not just you. I totally agree. It hasn't ruined a game ending for me, but if it stays as it is it eventually will. +5.

I agree with this. What should happen is they should stay blue until the last play/ possession. If you skip ahead a possession on the last possession, then grey out the button. Could do the same with the play, or just have it grey out once the play ends (though not really needed since the last play ends with the score graphic overlay on the screen.

Definitely +1.


Along the same lines..
I also dont like the colored dots on my players "next game". I log on and boom I know if we won or lost.. Instead of being able to watch the game first..

1. Don't grey out next possession.
Reasoning: Spoils the outcome of the game.

2. Don't display next game automatically. Have a link that says "Show Next Game" and it will display the next opponent's name, the colored dot, and link to the matchup page.
Reasoning: Spoils the outcome of the game.

3. Display a list of the past two or three games (without scores, just saying Team Name Vs Team Name) with links to either watch the game or reveal the score. Put colored dots next to these.
Reasoning: I've had many times where I did not know that the team had a scrimmage and I've either missed it entirely because I didn't log in between regular games or I go to watch the previous game and I think I'm watching a regular game, but it's a scrimmage instead.

4. Have the link for "Watch" automatically go to the replay screen, not the scrolling list of plays (or provide an option).
Reasoning: Currently, as soon as you click Watch, it goes to the list of plays and automatically shows you the first play before you can click to actually watch the replay. This spoils the first play of the game.

5. Don't display player's energy levels after game (or provide option to hide).
Reasoning: I can tell how often my player has been on the field, and for some teams/players, I can almost always tell the outcome of the game based on the stamina. It spoils the game for me.

Also, the outcomes of the games are ruined when I see the energy levels of my players. I can alway tell if my dots won their game or not by the level of energy they have. If all my offensive guys have very low energy, it's obvious they won their game. It's totally obvious if you have a kicker. I'm not sure why that has to be on the home page.
