2. Don't display next game automatically. Have a link that says "Show Next Game" and it will display the next opponent's name, the colored dot, and link to the matchup page. Reasoning: Spoils the outcome of the game.
3. Display a list of the past two or three games (without scores, just saying Team Name Vs Team Name) with links to either watch the game or reveal the score. Put colored dots next to these. Reasoning: I've had many times where I did not know that the team had a scrimmage and I've either missed it entirely because I didn't log in between regular games or I go to watch the previous game and I think I'm watching a regular game, but it's a scrimmage instead.
4. Have the link for "Watch" automatically go to the replay screen, not the scrolling list of plays (or provide an option). Reasoning: Currently, as soon as you click Watch, it goes to the list of plays and automatically shows you the first play before you can click to actually watch the replay. This spoils the first play of the game.
5. Don't display player's energy levels after game (or provide option to hide). Reasoning: I can tell how often my player has been on the field, and for some teams/players, I can almost always tell the outcome of the game based on the stamina. It spoils the game for me.
How about on the Today's Games page give 2 different links.. "watch live replay" or "watch text replay" instead of "watch game" then the text starts, then you click replay.
