As much as teams strategized and tried to strategize against opponent teams, there was no saying in what could happen after the first 30 secs of the 2002 game. I too like the 2000 game the best, 2001 (my rookie year) was boring to watch but I liked how nothing was left to guesswork unless something broke, 2002... it was all guesswork after an allience's initial move. Neither side could develope a concrete plan because they were always adjusting to what the opponent was doing. If I were to compare the 2002 game to a sport, it wouldn't be football because there is no offensive or defensive team... I'd compare it to soccer because you can control where you initially kick the ball, but after that you play by ear. The 2002 game had no control, you either lucked out or you didn't.
