NFL Preseason 2014 |OT2| - It's only one week, deal with no new content!

That Arsenal match was intense yesterday! I was watching at work and shouting. Pretty sad they almost got ousted at home...

I'm hardly more than just a novice fan, but that was just bad soccer. Ref was awful. Arsenal missed at least 5 chances a better squad buries. Best thing I can say is that the team is winning/drawing games despite being rusty and not at full strength. I understand regression to the mean and all that, but it takes some luck to win
 
Someone needs ro purchase the A11 Football license. Or go the full simulation route where you build up teams and franchises. I believe ghere is still money to be made and customers to exploit.

I still think the All Pro Football thing wasn't a bad idea, just executed poorly and released a couple years too early. If they released a polished up version of the engine, and focused on online leagues/play and customization, instead of wasting money signing a bunch of old washed up players who nobody gives a shit about, and released it as a D/L'able title for like $20 I think it would probably be huge for 2K.

I am too actually. I missed the first half but they looked over matched in the second. From what I understand if that Turkish team had scored to make it a draw, Arsenal wouldn't have advanced? What a fuck up that would have been.

This is such a crazy lineup. I don't really get who is going to play what.

Embrace the clank.
 
It's funny eznark only gets riled up when we talk about soccer, we can talk about food or video games and it's all good. Such a wanker that eznark!
 
Reports Josh Gordon is seeing if he can go to the CFL for the remainder of the year.

I don't know if he's a player a team would have claimed his rights on hmm.

The Browns would be out of their fucking minds to allow this.

Hard to say for sure since they ran non-traditional lanes in their only game, but Fly, S4 and KKY were the cores. They got stomped.

Yeah I need to watch that game, didn't like KKY go mid and S4 offlane or something goofy?

It was a KKY/n0tail dual mid (Tiny/Wisp), S4 off on Clock and Storm Spirit(Fly)/Bane(Puppey) went safelane where they fed against Alliance's aggro tri.
 
Sounds like even if the Browns let Gordon play in the CFL (which is an absurd premise), it's wouldn't happen anyway:

CFL's "Ricky Williams Rule" prevents any NFL-suspended player from signing with a CFL team. The rule exposes the CFL to U.S. antitrust laws.

How lame.
 
So did Miami just let Williams play because they weren't going to bring him back anyway? Or did the CFL clowns pay Miami something? I had totally forgotten about that.

Seems like they let him do it on the condition that he would return to them the next year. I guess they felt like they had nothing to lose? Maybe they figured the injury risk was worth keeping him in shape and giving him structure for the year instead of having him sit at home smoking pot.
 
I dont know if you guys have been following the new Fantastic Four movie at all but they put out a few pics of Dr. Doom yesterday.

This looks like the most ridiculous disaster ever. Fox is only putting out a movie to keep the rights from going back to Disney and it really shows. I am actually excited to see just how bad it will be.

Why is Josh Freeman in the picture?

I hate the soccer talk too.

I don't think we should all be punished with DOTA for the few assholes who keep talking about soccer when Labor Day is a few fucking days away. But he is right that it should not be in this thread.

I won't complain in April but CMON MAN! It's time for football. I have almost deluded myself that the Steelers might be decent this year. It's really happening!

All non pat fans should join in on the happiness and optimism because it is not going to last for long for half of us....

Footballs here. Huddle up Steeler bros. The rest of you can eat a bag of dicks!
