Throughout the week you'll be able to see what's going on throughout the league and your team by reading newspapers, both local and national. This serves as a way to judge the public's reaction to some of your moves (raise the price of beer, trade T.O.) as one day the headline might be about the road to the Super Bowl, the next it's ridiculing you for not benching your struggling quarterback. The papers will also provide stories on the latest injuries, trades, and roster moves, along with player profiles to help you get better acquainted with your lineup. All in all, there are over 20,000 stories that can be generated in the game, offering owners unique articles throughout multiple franchise experiences.
As you read the paper and look over your team throughout the week, in the background you'll hear the new voice of EA Sports Radio, Tony Bruno, talking football and even conducting interviews with the actual coaches featured in the game. That's right, the real voices of the real coaches talking about your team and what's happening throughout your season.
Internally, the stories within your team will be delivered through e-mail. Scouts will tell you about upcoming opponents, your marketing director will bitch about ticket sales, and players will tell you to just give them the damn ball.
