I've tried Front Office Football before. I've tried the baseball version too. I think it's called Out of the Park Baseball. I never did find an acceptable basketball version. Front Office Football was a fun game when I found it years ago but I got bored of it after teaching myself how to play Madden. Madden has some of those annoying video game qualities to it but overall, it's a more realistic football simulator, especially with the playcalling, which is what I enjoy the most in a football game. All of those video games, no matter what format they are, are simplified versions of football, but it still doesn't mean I don't feel like Bill Belichick outscheming an offense when I challenge someone online in Madden.
