There was a time during my freshmen year where my friend and I ran a franchise that lasted around 15 or 20 years. We also did it the next year with a third friend. It was probably the most fun I had playing Madden. I remember we would pick a team in the same division, first year it was the AFC East and the second year it was the NFC South.
We would then simulate all the games except for the ones where we would play each other so it was really more of a draft and free agency focused franchise as opposed to playing the games. Of course the next year I gave up video games for a while and since then I haven't really played Madden that much.
Even when I bought it this year for the first time since 06, I found myself board after about a month. Since then my focus has been online play with FIFA and NHL both of which look to be amazing with their 2010 upgrades.
