Not that I know of. Have you tried saving it as "User Specific" and 
seeing if that will work instead?

My suggestion would be to modify the punt play with personnel to defend 
against being blocked. I don't think you get blocked EVERY time.

: Basically, if I call a goal line pass, instead of still calling the 
: field goal defense, the computer changes the call to a goal line pass 
: defense.

Funny how that works.

: So, if I can designate a goal line pass as a punt, he'd never know the 
: difference.

Well, I'd say he does now.  ;-)

: I need an immediate response please.

Boy, I'll say!
