LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

Fifty: Thursday night happens to be the ONLY time during the whole weekend in which I am busy, and it's uncancellable or moveable. (Read: Bitches and liquor) Any other time at ALL would be good.


Hmmm, well this doesn't look good. Ok....any other time AT ALL...that would have to be friday afternoon or morning, before 4:00. Otherwise we're going to have to do a coin toss.

Sounds good. Check your PMs.
 
ramirez is a creampuff, and his running game is a joke. i proved it once, i'm going to prove it again next week. i predict mike "Michelle" vick goes down in the first quarter with a severe case of vaginitis. ADIOS VICK! YOU WILL RUE THE DAY TO RAN AGAINST THE GREEN MONSTER!


oh and truelize when do you want to rock and roll? ive been installing hardwood floors at my place the last few days so i haven't been online much, but let me know when you can play. i get off work @ 5 pm pacific tomorrow, but i'm heading out to my parents sometime between 8pm and 10 pm. if we can't play tomorrow, i will have my xbox with my anyways if you want to roll on xmas day. as a last resort we can play on sunday (AFTER the niners game!)

I did a Best of 5 coin flip with HG/Fifty's game and Fifty ended up winning 3-1. Sucks that HG couldn't play this week, but since I can now change results I really didn't want any ties so I stole FMT's coin flip and made it better. FMT is BCS, and I'm the tournament!

Well if I lost the flip I probably would have been bitter and pointed out to you....time and time again, his quote. I'm a petty man, but I'm making the playoffs!

Hey Hg why dont you wait and get a new xbox after this weeks game :lol You dont really need to play me,I mean since you beat me before *no fun in beating me twice*,I think a free win would be pretty sweet :p

Incredible game, incredible comeback, Fifty. That was one of the best I've played.

You should have won on dropped ints alone.

I probably should have. You know what's worse than your favorite team only playing hard for one quarter? When the same thing happens to you, you have one play to tie it, you lose....and it all comes down to one of my high-rated guards being pushed over (I can't see the replay to confirm) by an average DT of yours like a piece of paper. Ridiculous... Oh well, I managed one of the best comebacks, and I called the right play, my line just decided not to work on that down. I guess that's fair, because I didn't really play well from quarters 1-3. Maybe the game was punishing me :( All those dropped picks...one user, at least 2 CPU. A lost fumble. All meaningless really, since I had one play to tie it, and things didn't go as planned. I wouldn't be pissed if you got me Strahan, but for that guy to just bowl over my line...that wasn't right.


Good game though. Even though I don't like losing, I'll be a man and admit that it was a match worth playing, and you didn't do anything wrong.

I think what happened was that your center went over to help with Strahan (I pulled all three linemen together, and I told them all to rush the middle). There's no way that DT (Norman Hand) would have ever gotten through your o-line otherwise.

What happened? Who did you play? I didn't see anyone else on after our game...


For the first time ever in my Madden career, I just had to quit. It was 28-0 in the 2nd. I have no idea how DM was able to connect on streaks when I haven't been able to do it since the game game out, but there were 3 too many for me happening. But then my offense couldn't get crap going but punts and INTs.

You mentioned that the roster update improved WR speeds across the board, is that true? Can anyone confirm?

What I do know is that the Jag DBs aren't bad, and the Bucs WRs aren't that good.

That is what I was told from my Tiburon folx. But I will see with some testing.

I dont think playing tomorrow night will be a problem at all. tonight I was really unsure when I would be home and when I wouldnt be and then when I got my cousins Xbox I forgot to get the power cord so I had to go back to his place to get it.
 
Gunstar77, I'm free the first half of the day tomorrow and all day Sunday to play our game. Let me know! AIM name: Atreides815.

Since I said anytime, no that time is not good.

:p

Alright after the Raptors game.
 
GG Gunstar.

If I had to choose one victory I would like to have in this season, it would definitely have been today's defensive and special teams performance against the Eagles.

I'd like to thank my defensive coordinator FMT and my offensive coordinator Wellington for their excellent advice.

I'd also like to thank EA for creating the HIT STICK. :D

gg FMT.

That was brutal. I was not trying to showboat or anything when I had that touchdown attempt with Moss. I was using the "S" controller for the first time and I just wanted to run diagonally into the endzone to shave a second off the clock. I wound up having him go freakin completing across the field. UGH!! And then I had my running plays keep break down when I was tyring to run in. Twice the QB didn't get the ball into the hands of the RB. I don't get how that works. Maybe I was doing something wrong there. Whatever the cause it sure sucked. :(

That possesion killed me though. It was a game if I had scored. I didn't really care after that.
 
yeah bobs passing game is tough to defend when he goes 4-wide. but i always hold him under 20 pts :D


gg true, that goalline stand won the game for me. true had a 1st and goal at the 1 after a 70 yard pass to moss, and i stopped him on 4 straight runs.

true the reason your QB didn't complete the handoff is because the run you chose had an animation that took too long. you need to pick quick hitters on the goalline, like a straight handoff to the FB, because odds are (and in this case it is what happened) the defense has an all out blitz coming through the gaps. were your QB to try and complete the handoff, you would have fumbled, so the game goes into the QB keeper animation. if i were you i would have run a spread, 4 or 5 wide, offense just once one time out of 4 and tried to get something that way. i'm pretty sure you could have run it in w/ culpepper in that situation, but we're all genius' in hindsight :D
