Probably not, but he could probably kick all of our asses in Halo 3 right now. :/LiveWire said:Glad to hear he's back home and comfortable Ramirez. Have you acquired his first Steelers paraphernalia yet?

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world hed rather have. The problem is, Dwyanes not a woman.
Glad to hear the little guy is doing better, hang in there Ram.
Birdman, just to remind you I'll be free at 10 pm est after Lost if you still want to play tonight.

Firstly I'm glad things are better for you Ramirez. Keep us updated!
And yeah, my drafts in hindsight weren't good...except the selections of Kelly and Twan. I drafted Clay Matthews and Will Johnson after the first season (MLB and ROLB both rated 80 now) who have decent coverage and pursuit/tackle stats, but they are so insanely slow that it doesn't mean anything so they're terrible. When the game selected Javon Jackson for me in that draft as well that really fucked me over because he's an LT who has had no improvement because I've stuck him at RT since I have Jake Long. That was an extremely valuable pick in the first round that could have been used on another important player. I've drafted mostly defense but the guys who could have been a part of my core rotation are not because they are slow as fuck and not playing anymore. Blah
It has been a rough rookie year. If I come back for Madden 11 I will have a year of valuable experience under my belt!

EA has Whitner listed as a FS, but he plays both and is rated higher at SS, so I play him at SS. Whitner's ratings have been going down every single season even though he's a solid contributor. I played Sidbury out of position (LE instead or RE), and he went down after a 10 sack season.
Small sample size, it's just my observation, others should chime in as well.

I played a rookie FS at SS last year and he went up quite a bit of points

I disagree with you guys, LJ and Pheeniks.
I had Kenny Phillips (FS) at SS all season last year and he went up to an 89 this offseason.
Further, I play Will Beatty, a natural LT, at RT, and he has gone from 76 to 86 from year 2 when he started.
However, I played Clint Sintim (OLB) at DE and he lost points overall to things like SPD, PMV, FMV, BSH, etc. I also had several OTs play TE for me in certain situations and I don't think they budged statwise, I'll double check when I get home.
I think that it's a case of, again, zero rhyme or reason to the progression system.
I hope EA is not stupid enough to nerf guys for this as it happens a lot in the NFL. Dave Diehl played Guard for most of his career and is a pretty decent Tackle for us now IRL. But.... Robert Gallery is a natural T and had to play inside for a few years with the Raiders and he sucks. Thomas Davis is another good example.

I'm still enjoying the memory of this play, way too much. It's help me get through this work day, and the waiting until I can play GOW 3 and watch Lost.
Noticed that Barclay's wearing the full length sleeves, but everyone else manned up and went with the no sleeves in this brisk early september weather *(2nd game would be in September, right?)
The fuck? No he doesn't. He's been our best OL player by far at guard. And he's even avoided the Raider downgrade by Donny because he's been so good.Wellington said:But.... Robert Gallery is a natural T and had to play inside for a few years with the Raiders and he sucks.
1 defensive lineman. DCX is probably running 1-5-5 all game. :lolLonestar said:

DO it, I don't give a fuck. Have fun with it! Have BLAST! Injure AP and Edwards! It will be great!
Furthermore, you had fucking 140 yards with whoever the fuck your fantasy back is with 5 attempts. Retarded. You need 3rd and 5?? Flats pass to Hightower, got it. You need 75 yards with 15 seconds to go?!? No problem, screen pass to the WR and just run it in. Fuck it.
