When are they giving up their rights to the NFL also, so someone can make a TRUE physics game with real financial, draft and roster engines?  When?  >:(  

Then, I'll finally buy a damn console.

We are not giving up the rights to the NFL... maybe ever.

We are giving up the NCAA rights due to a settlement agreement from a 2008 Lawsuit, so yes, someone else will be able to make an NCAA game if they so desire.
