Ah Wellie, it might have to be 5:30-6ish. My dad is using the TV for like 20-30 minutes... and I don't want to connect wireless with my xbox here since my connection sucks in madden unless im Directly Connected.

So I checked my cap situation and I'll have 33m going into next year, though I'll probably resign at least one of my FA, addressed some other needs via the draft (ROLB) so I should be alright with letting a couple of guys go. This got me thinking about the 53 roster discussion from the other day. Everyone should be forced to carry 53 men. It seems like I had a relatively easy time last season resigning my guys, except the receivers but they were delusional! It'd be a waste to have guys with stacked 46 man teams, where' the FA action.

Yeah, this is why I brought it up.

Crow, I saw you in the Galaxy Nexus 4 thread, did you get your phone(s)?

I went to the google play store and they are all sold out. Hope restock is soon.

Thinking about making the switch from Virgin Mobile to Straight Talk with the Nexus 4. Straight talk costs 10 dollars more a month, but I'll get more reliable local coverage (ATT vs Sprint) and quasi 4G via HSPA. Not bad for 45 bucks a month.

I ordered minutes after they went up but I'm still waiting for shipping confirmation. Luckily I've been able to avoid the email about having to wait up to 3 weeks. Tmobile also has good prepaid plans too. Plus you'll get HSPA+42 but it depends on how good the coverage is in your area.

now get on aim

I don't know what and I don't care what FMT said about rosters.

You should have 53 men signed period. We aren't having Ramirez 2.0 with his 35 man steelers.

I'd love to hop onto Tmobile but their Wisconsin coverage sucks. I have to use ATT Towers. That 30 dollar monthly tmobile plan is sweet though.

I'll check my mobile aim, see if it's not giving me problems. Not at home right now.

Things aren't getting easier, my friend.

I'll beat you. We'll split the series like we did last season.

Wellie was just beating me everywhere. I threw 4 interceptions and my corners couldn't cover worth shit, getting beat on routes. I also saw sweeps and pitches coming most of the time but my players can't get over and if they did, they'd botch tackles. I played horribly and Wellie was taking advantage!

gg wellie. outplayed me the entire game.

no breaks whatsoever.

GG dude. I thought you played really well TBH. The turnovers are what did you in, I never felt like I could stop you. In fact I don't recall you even punting.

I was joking earlier about the whole thing with guys running all over me, yeah I allowed a 65 yard run for a TD by Ram/Mendenhall but his total stat line for the game was 13 carries for 64 yards. I'm routinely one of the best rushing D's in the league every year, so I was surprised to see how effective you were with MJD. Nice work, dude.

AND! I also helped to try and get myself a better pick!

I believe I have the Packers and Vikings the next couple weeks in Madden. Bad timing to lose Hester for 4 more games with divisional match ups incoming. He is one of my top offensive producers. Had a relatively healthy season last year, getting crushed by injuries this season.

We'll see if Eznark and Soka are bad enough dudes to take me down in my weakened state.

[edit]Also, if today doesn't work, I'll be able to play tomorrow after noon or so pacific.

My remaining schedule is a nightmare. My three most winnable opponents are Story, Live and Cola. All of them have played me tough in the past too. And since I can't stop anyone on third and long, ugh.

Hester got what was coming to him after causing problems in the NFC championship!

Well interceptions are worse than punts and I did that four times. One of those I felt was garbage but the other three were definitely stupid mistakes on my part. I hate the physics that occur when you happen to run into your own line. You get stuck and then you're fucked. And that's a horrible problem that everyone faces in this game.

I was getting the most upset when I couldn't stop you on third down. CBs were getting beat and I couldn't stop you on pitches.
 
I'm sick of playing in that trash stadium. I have 5 losses in league play in Madden 13 and 3 of them are in San Fran.

The reason I love playing there is the shitty weather basically negates deep passing for guys like Vick and cutler. But Alex smiths deep passing sucks everywhere so it's no sweat off my sack!
