I giggled like an 8 year old.

But I'm playing on Pro difficulty and it is incredible easy. I'm an OFD getting 4 points a game, and an A+ rating. It was fun getting 8 points against the Canucks and shutting them out 11-0 but I think I need a little more challenge here. What's the next difficulty like?
I bought this game, against my better instincts, during Boxing week while it was on sale for $40. After all the initial frustration, I finally did the smartest thing I could have done...I dropped the difficulty from All-Star to Pro.

I find that as soon as you bump it up beyond Pro you start seeing some of the ridiculous and frustrating gameplay that can just drive you crazy. Yeah, it's pretty easy right now, but the alternative is some dumbass programming in an attempt to make up for a lack of proper AI design.

I would suggest adjusting the CPU Difficulty slider first, then if that is still not an enjoyable challenge level then try All-Star. If you can keep your sanity once you do, I applaud you.
