The Fifa series is the most popular game series in israel. Just go to the Fifa 99 online downloads section, and you'll see how many israeli league add-ons, israeli stadiums and kits are in there. So the quality of the league wasn't important to EA-Sports. They just wanted to make the Israeli people happy, that's all. The biggest patch ever for Fifa 99 is an Israeli patch. The popularity of Fifa 99 in israel is way bigger than the popularity in russia.
And that's why the israeli league is included in Fifa 2000. By the way, there will probably be a hebrew version of the game in Israel.

Does this make things clear to all of you? I hope so.

You talk like a 5 years old kid. Your evidences are so pointless. Just tell me how many time Russia has bigger population? I'll tell ya, about 20. So more people like play soccer, aspecially on PC. Many people have PC's at home, but not everyone has an Internet Access to shout on forums staff like "We're the best in the whole damn Europe!". You know, if EA could create Luxemburg of Andora's championships, it could make those folks verry happy, I guess, but it is a waisting a time and space on the CD. The game is about quality and reality. Russian league is reality and it could make happy folks not only in Russia, but in many other countries such as Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyztan, Turkmenistan, Georgia, Azerbajan, Armenia, Latvia, Litva, Estonia and even from Esrail. As you know 20 % of population of Esrail was born in former USSR and they would prefer Russian league insted of Israeli.

Man, get a better attitude, you're talking like it's a matter of life and death here...

Anyway, I don't want this discussion to become an ugly fight.

EA have already decided which leagues will be included, so there's no point to this arguement. You can always edit the leagues and get all israeli players to have 1 point each... and of course create your own russian league. Oh and about the population,
when it comes to Fifa 99 in Israel, to some people it is THE ONE AND ONLY game, you don't know how many israeli people have sent requests to EA about adding the Israeli league. And about the "We're the best in the whole damn Europe!" thing, I did not say anything like that.

Bottom line:
Israeli league IN, Russian league OUT!
Just accept it!
