I don't know why you specified sports games. This sounds like typical online play for *any* game.

People hiding behind the internet are jerks.

Sports game is where I find the majority of this problem to be. At least out of the online games I own. I don't run into jerks on MGO, Warhawk, or Rock Band. But if I pop in Madden, NCAA, NHL, MLB, it's just a game of who can take advantage of the most glitches.

Maybe if every game, and every owner had headset support like the 360, I would then include every online game.

I agree 100%, sports game usually have awful online gameplay. I stopped playing MLB the show 08 online, it was terrible. I remember madden 07 online.. I wish I could forget.. awful.

Warhawk - smooooth online play
COD4 - super smooth online play!

Every sports game should be a minimum 60fps as well..
