Dana White is a sellout. He came to them years ago and they didn't take the sport seriously. He was so bitter and swore he'd never give EA the license. Now look. Fucking suit.

Yeah but if someone gave me hundreds of millions of dollars I wouldn't give. A shit either lol... EA is still the worst developer ever in my eyes. Worst servers known to man and poorest support as well

SPARTAAAAAAAAAA!

I do have to agree with Kant with the server issues. You figure by now if you have a ton of players complaining you would spend a bit of you money to correct a problem

When are they going to follow South Park's lead and license the CBAA (crack baby athletic association)?
