"Can I just buy this game without the sales pitch", was always my reply. I would never give them my money again, especially after they tried to sell me a "new" game that had the shrinkwrap removed and a scratch on the disc.
MLB, NBA, and PGA don't have exclusive licenses with companies. You don't even need Tiger and co. to make a decent golf game. Give me something besides Mario. Alot of americans could give 2 shits about soccer, yet they continue to pump FIFA games out. They can't be selling all that well. I guess I'll just stay retro, it's their loss, not mine...
