Vump I just tried to add you to my friends list and it tells me that that gamertag does not exist.

N/V FMT checked his list for me and noticed it needs a space.


hopefully we can get our game in tomorrow afternoon or late tomorrow night. I'm leaving Sunday to go look at some houses on Monday and wont be back until Monday night.

just as a heads up to all league players: i'm toying with the idea of no vision cone at all. the reason being is the rush is so fast in this game often times you have NO TIME to direct the cone. this leads to extra sacks when they aren't needed. i love vision cone but its tough when you have to swing the cone around and you have 5 guys on your ass at the snap

How about making it optional?

That and the cone doesnt seem to make as much difference this year. I have noticed being able to use precision passing without the cone.

I still dont know how you guys are getting sacked so much. Honestly not even kidding, i dont know.

when simeon rice busts you in the ass for 3 straight sacks (NO PLAY ACTION INVOLVED!) and you are completely helpless to stop it then we'll see.

although you are using a power team. some of us actually have to earn our victories buddy :D

No vision cone at all? Doesn't sound right to me... If you can't use it, then don't, but some of us enjoy it.

:lol :lol :lol How am i a power team! My highest WR is rated 83!

And yeah i do have Tra Thomas on my line. But you have Larry Allen

I still think Cone should be required. The amount of cheese stemming from no cone is gonna be complete and utter bullshit

Ill be honest. Ive been lost about what we were doing here for about a week now. I actually didnt realize I was going to have to participate in this tourney. :lol

anyway Im glad I have until tuesday to play because Ive been having connection issues and I might be going out of town tomorrow for most of the day.

Im pretty sure Ill have a new cable modem and router if necessary some time tomorrow. If for some reason I cant get it fixed Ill do the best I can.

I can play tomorrow (Saturday) if I get my connection fixed but most likely for a very limited time window. say 1 PM - 3 PM CST. Let me know if that works for you Duce.

say it aint so. there should be times when you dont have long to throw it. it'll be just like in Madden 2005 when I never used to have more than 3 seconds to throw anyway. playing without the cone would be a step in the wrong direction IMO. it would be so EAish.

seriously, i might as well just play some random ****er online if i wanted people to not use a cone and cheese all the time

1 pm should be ok.

BTW, is the vision cone something you have to activate on your own every passing play?

Nope, you can assign it to a player Pre-snap. It will appear on that player when you snap the ball

Or you could just play against Konex. :lol Everytime he snaps the ball it looks like he's running the QB to the bench to get a drink

We had a good connection though. I played Rorschach tonight too and didn't have any lag that was bad.

guys let me stress this for the tournament: TRY to play a realistic game of being a QB. just try it for a few plays here and there! DON'T TOUCH the left stick after you hike the ball. let the computer do your drop back for you while you scope out the defense. lets try to have a realistic league here. i know SOMETIMES you have to get your ass out of there but when you take control of the qb moving right from the start and **** up your drop its no surprise you are having issues. konex of all people should be trying the auto dropback!

Many of you here have played me and I rarely leave the pocket if there's no pressure. Am I supposed to stay and get sacked? :lol

And it's not like I'm cheesing it up getting rushing yds with the QB...

I only noticed you running for the sidelines with the Qb near the end of the game when you were trying to win it :(

:lol @ 150 rushing yards with Vick

I dont know whats worse...

1) Konex self-controlled lineman stunts

2)Konex QB scrambling

3)Or me coming back, down by 14 with 2:22 left. Then winning in OT.

I played Truelize and he really didn't get carried away with Vick. He had a couple of rushes and 1 TD, but I left him wide open for that one by accident. If the hole is there, he should take it. I had all his receivers covered and he needed the TD to win it, so he went for it. I still won it with those few seconds, though. :D

Moss is boss!

Juanmr: Let me know when you can play. Sunday would be a good day for me as well as Saturday evening.

Well I'm actually in a rough situation for today and can't get free. I will be free tomorrow after 2pm CST, all day monday and tuesday. So we can either do it monday night when you get home or first thing tuesday.

Lol cloudy always runs to the right sideline giving his receivers just enough time to get open for the 30yard pass. What kills me though is that I KNOW ITS COMING and I still can't do a damn thing about it because he does stay in the pocket long enough for his guys to pick up the block. So I can't knock him. It's just that everyone has their own style of play and I think we should be able to play our style. I've seen people just dominate different people's style that others call chesse. Like in NCAA I loved it when they ran with the QB out of the pocket every play, you could dominate em or if they ran the corner post every play, I could swat it everytime. It just got difficult when you played a good player and then all the sudden they popped a outside corner route because it would catch you off guard and then its over D:

I was downloading anime and forgot to turn it off till the 2nd

Konex actually STARTED a torrent in the middle of our game once. WTF

:lol I do believe Ive actually had all of these done to me over the course of many games against him.

also, not using the cone at a time when it was deemed mandatory.

he actually had the nerve to ask me if I had any downloads going on my PC during a game which we had terrible lag in.

I remember a game once where I got disconnected from my opponent and they told me they got so mad at a play that they kicked the ethernet cable out of the console. that might have been konex but he doesnt strike me as the kind to get that upset.

he's like the Al Davis of our leagues or something.

Why would I start a torrent during the game? That makes no sense at all.

And when did controlling linemen become illegal?
