Why do people find Rorschach (Madden) compelling again?

This isn't about which Madden player is the best (they are all pretty good, well maybe save for LiveWire or Eznark- I dunno I just find their existence simply as plot device). It's more about how people find Rorschach as some sort of "omg what an epitome of a badass MaddenGod".

I'm probably the only one who sees him as an extremist, probably racist, out-of-control guy who sees things black and white without any form of sympathy. Think of Batman without all of the positive traits. Is it because he is playing the nerd fantasies of a "guy who takes no warning from no one and beats the crap with impunity", but is really a member of Seal Team Six and likely planning Zero Dark Thirty-Two?

EDIT: Compelling is a poor word. Worshiped/very well loved should be an ideal term. Could a mod change it?

We love you Rors!

How long was the draft last time? 2 solid hours? Why do we have to wait 30 minutes, can you make it 10? No sense in waiting that long - us Beast Coasters need beauty rest.

Plus, we're already dedicating at least 5 hours this weekend (if you do zero scouting) to the game between FA Saturday and the draft Sunday, why artificially extend it?

Hey! Some of us have teams that were good enough to make the playoffs and thus playoff games to attend!

Push the the draft back to next weekend!

Hahaha, you're like the virgin who finally popped his cherry and then goes around telling other people how to hump, like a true expert.

Its a shame the NFC East was so bad its tricking redskins fans into thinking their team has a shot.

FMT - hold a vote for Sunday night draft time

Two choices 5:30 PT, 8 PT

Or do the right thing and have it at 5:30/6:00

Don't make us beast coasters stay up past 2 am when we have work the next day!

And the skins would be in 4th place where they belong!

Actually, since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, the last place team in the NFC East:

Eagles 10 times
Redskins 6 times
Giants 10 times
Cowboys 6 times

So if anything, the Eagles are right back where they belong (with the Giants soon to follow).

Tropico is back! I bought all the DLC for the game. Except for the Vigilante DLC. No discount on that.

I've even gifted the game to a couple friends.

Why not just say 15 minutes after the late game is done we start the draft. This should be around 5:30 to 6 pacific, so everyone can get prepared.

This is worse than bragging about pre-merger Championships (see also: bragging about pre-Madden 10 Championships).

When you have no coach and no QB, your team is in for a long dark future. I am excited for the future of the Philadelphia Eagles. Hopefully they misfire on both a couple of times. Ten years of horrible football in Philly would be incredible.

Dallas is in the middle of horrible coaching. Beautiful!

I look forward to our teams battling for the division and more SB championships, just like in the old days, Wellie. As it should be.

Which one of you paid this guy off to tweet this?

SCOTT WRIGHT@ScottWrightEAWant a sleeper for your draft board? Look no further than WR Ronald Watts. Most consistent WR in the draft. #weswelker2

I'd love to be able to go scout right now and verify. I still believe that the teams that didn't make the playoffs should continue to receive scouting points and should be allowed to scout. It would contribute to parity (somewhat) for the league and guys like Rors, Luke, and I may be competitive next season.

End of the day tho, I think this was a great first shot at a true online franchise but with just a little bit of fine tuning it could be really awesome.
