I would be mad myself. Don't worry about it.

Even though MY team came in 3rd out of 4 this year, we actually had a good team. Our 4 man was REALLY powerful, but I had a better batting average while normally hitting 6th or 7th even with my dad as coach.

This. It was actually a good decision to intentionally walk the guy if he's the best batter on your team and the lineup drops off after that point. And, you guys were being INCREDIBLY sore losers if you left the award ceremony before they got their awards. Those 3 kids were right.

Not sure why we're supposed to be mad at the other team, from what I understood of it, your team and fans seem to lack sportsmanship way more than a team that, I don't know, implements a baseball strategy into their game? Would you also get mad if one of your hitters went down 0-2 and the pitcher threw a pitch out of the strike zone to get him out?

Seriously, throwing his bat at the dugout? You put "4th batter", are you sure you didn't mean "4 year old batter"?

I know it was a good decision, but that was the only time I have EVER seen someone be intentionally walked in any of our little league games. I don't even know how they thought of doing it, its just incredibly rare to do it around here.

Yeah I do cooldude. I'm in midgets. The tee threw a ball outside the zone, and he didn't want to swing, and so he got walked.

I don't see the problem with the intentional walk. I DO see how you got mad at the three kids who didn't really care that you lost. If someone on my team is satisfied with losing, I would be really mad too. But, it wasn't great sportsmanship by your team and your fans.

I wouldn't say they didn't care. I mean, there's no point in crying over spilled milk, right? It sucks to lose, but there's always next season.

I had a time last year where we intentionally walked 2 batters to get to an auto out and win the game.

WOAH! http://communityvoices.sites.post-gazette.com/index.php/arts-entertainment-living/the-game-guy/33242-hands-on-with-madden-13-at-e3

I have been researching this, and can't find out how you get a franchise mode out of this. It just sounds like it is completely Superstar mode. Can you guys decipher how you can do a franchise mode with this new "Connect Careers"?
