Yes. I told others too. I doubt I can play it tonight though.

Well it's over.  I'm really glad they gave the free weekend, because I 
didn't care for it.  I'm not much into sports usually, so I'm not sure 
my perspective is off, but it seemed to me driving games are much better 
at driving, and that a dedicated sports game would be much better at 
sports.  I found it highly frustrating.  I played about 4 matches, I 
seemed to start off with he first one pretty well, but after that it was 
just endless missing the ball.  The last 2 of the games went into 
overtime with no points on either side.

Ya know. I actually enjoyed it. I was more surprised how smooth it ran 
on my ancient 64-bit W7 HPE SP1 machine with 6 GB of RAM, ATI Radeon 
4870 video card (512 MB of VRAM), etc. Yeah, the game is hard to play 
but I still enjoyed it.

I think the appeal is the high skill ceiling mixed with ample
opportunities for fun lucky shots.
