Ya, that was my next solution, but I added the Northstar mod so it was a bigger PITA and I would have preferred to avoid that. I'll give it a try and report back. Thank you

Community ManagerOkay, great, @LMS5100! Let us know if there are any further issues with it.
So I couldn't uninstall the original copy I had through EA. I had to remove the files manfully.
I did that and had no TF2 copy installed.
Reinstalled the steam version launched EA and the game was not found in my lib anymore and now I get this error which is a bit different, but I still can't play the game. I'm guessing my registry is corrupt or something, but who knows.
I'm actually 100% out of ideas other than reinstalling windows which is totally insane. Can I please get a developer to help me out there, Is there an error log I can look at?
Update: Uninstall steam copy again.
I did a search for "titanfall" in my registry and proceeded to delete any key that was related to the exe or folder location. I removed about 15 to 20 items. I did not remove them all. there was a lot.
After that. I reinstalled the game again and it launched which is great news--but hold on. So this clearly is an issue with EA App thinking the game is somewhere where its not. I think there should be a button to re-point EA Desktop to the game files for the steam copy. Pretty frustrating. However, to make matters worse I can't actually run TF2 from my original account anymore. The one were I'm G100. The game is not installed and EA Desktop won't let me install it.
Wackamole.
