    The peppy game exudes plenty of personality, and young fans will love the smart game play. [Sept 2002, p.163]

    Granted, some of the three-dimensional effects are very nice, but at times, the game looks like a title in the Lego series, and not the carefree, cartoonish game that has become so enjoyable.

    Fun for a goof for adults, and a kid will eat this up.

    I think that this game should have more players like Daunte Culpepper, Randy Moss Torry Holt, Deuce Macallester, Preist Holmes, and Cris Carter.
