An observation

I think its kinda cool seeing some people have the actual coach of a team hold press conferences, while others have themselves as the coach. In one post, Mike Martz is answering questions about the Rams, in another, The Billster is answering questions for the Giants. Me, I like to think of myself as coach.

Yeah I considered that, but then I figured I'm more of the GM.. I don't really get to call the plays.. but everyone is welcome to do it however they feel is best

Good point, Cash. When the game is being played, we are not much more than observers. We enjoy watching a great meal made with groceries we bought but can't eat (an ode to Bill Parcells).

A GM is not making game tactics and so on. That is the coaches job.
Our role is a mix of both i would say. A mixture of a GM and of a coach.
NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A GM does make a decision about the tactics of the team, it's called hiring a coach, which would be the equivalent of us setting our sliders.

I believe no GM ever said how much his team should run the ball and pass and blitz and so on
And no GM ever did the depth charth of his team and so on

But enough of this, i still believe Madden is still more of a coaching game than a classic GM...
