Part of the reason I refuse to play randoms online, because you never know what kind of player you're about to go up against. Fuck that. I have better things to do with my time than deal with that *** bullshit.

For me, in offline dynasty, I can see the sliders and difficulty levels to such that it's a challenge for me. In my FIU dynasty I have going on in NCAA 12, I can beat the teams that are worse than me like UL Lafayette, UL Monroe, Western Kentucky, MTSU (provided I don't personally completely suck it up once I get into the game), but then turn around and get my ass handed to me by better teams like USC, UCF, Washington, Texas A&M, Arkansas State, etc.

Getting the sliders just right so I can compete with and usually win against teams worse than me, compete with and half of the time win against teams equal to me, and compete with and sometimes win here and there against teams that are better than me, that is what makes offline dynasty and playing the CPU still fun for me.
Get a PS3 and half that shit would be cured with the OD's on here.
