The Show got the best reviews of any game that I've seen recently. The career mode really doesn't make much sense, in that you can have a phenomenal career and still not get anywhere near "Hall of Fame" status (I recently had a second baseman who hit about 450 bombs and made it about halfway on the little progress chart they use). The franchise mode is very good. Gameplay is good. As Donlin said, the pitching is well-done, and the announcing is tremendous. I actually thought the graphics were terrific - about as good as any I've seen for the PS2. To each his own, I suppose...

If you're going to get Madden, you probably can't go wrong with any of the last four years' worth. If you don't mind paying a little extra for the new bells and whistles they've added in 07 (and I didn't mind), they're worth it. (Speaking of football, NCAA 07 is excellent.)
