It's all about sacrifices. I played CB at at like 1:30 this morning, and I still woke up at 5:45 to go to work.

I may, or may not, have fallen asleep at my desk twice today. I just hope no one else has noticed.
I don't know how you guys do that. I feel like I hit the alarm and turn it off without realizing if I'm really tired.

You caught me offguard while i was playing rock band blitz and got the win. It was worth it!

also, in the random post for tonight, me and rors were beating up on these two losers in 2vs2 ranked psasbr and near the end one of the guys said "stop running away you killzone pussy" (to me) and then said "these guys have no honor" after we destroyed them. i guess since we were zoning them? i don't know. it was pretty funny though.... pretty funny indeed!
"That win was without honor!"

lol I just kept teleporting behind the dude and hitting him with the super. "Stop running awa--FUCK OH YEAH, LIKE THAT MAKES SENSE! BULLSHIT!"

So, are you going to be around for a while if the servers come up or did you want to play at another time?

I'll be here refreshing, broski!

You guys fucking suck, couldn't wait another day or two to advance?!? -_-



What is this, Fox News? This is not accurate.

Here are the scores for my games, mine on the left:

52-0
3-42
42-21
14-17
22-21
24-7

I've scored 157 and allowed 108. I don't know where you got your information, but it makes me question the rest of your statistical analysis.

The only math I did was point differential. It's possible I read the wrong columns.

You don't have to be a jerk about it though!

What should I be touchy feely with a division rival? DIAF bro!

What happens if I get a good QB and then he still is just as bad as Ponder because it isn't actually Ponder that is bad, it's just me?

Give me a QB, then! I can't help that the QB I was planning to take in the fifth round was taken with the 7th pick of the first round, Rors.

With the numbers you were putting up last season with Ponder/Owusu/Harvin I am surprised Ponder isn't 90 OVR.

Ah yes, the Wellie v. Rodgers case.

It's not worth it!

Uh... he was throwing ducks out there. It would be like a 5 yard pass and he would throw it 10 yards off or at the dude's feet. Unless you're holding down the stick or your stick is broken!

Every other team has a winning record and a positive point differential.

Worst point differential among winning teams: Packers +2
Best point differential among winning teams: Eagles +141

Turns out I was looking at the Packers point differential, not the Rams. SORRY JERKFACE WELLINGTON.

He put it all into awareness.

Awareness is the quickest (and most useless for some positions) way to raise overall!

QBs should be about 5 things, THP/SAC/MAC/DAC/TOR in almost that order (I'd value MAC over SAC but whatever). I haven't put a single point into TOR yet.

Sam Bradford has come a long way since being a really terrible QB that misses guys all the time. Now he hits dudes in stride, especially defenders!

No love for play action?

I haven't put in any points in short accuracy, but I assume it would help if you have trouble with screens. I finally got Wilson's deep accuracy to 80.

From what I've heard I'm one of the few who actually likes to use play action.

The ability to throw on the run in general was way scaled back in 13.

Its supposed to be dependent on QB. Scrambling QBs are generally supposed to be better at it, although any time I've tried it ends up as a duck or my QB does that thing where he stops to try and set his feet and then gets sacked. And I have an 87 in throw on the run.

From what I've heard I'm one of the few who actually likes to use play action.

I'd love to use it more, but Wilson started with a 69 in that department so I figured with the inherent shittiness of play action it hasn't been worth the risk.

I never play action. It's a hold over from previous Maddens and getting sacked almost instantaneously. Fuck it.

I've always stopped right before I throw to get some mustard on it. If I'm running and can't stop to make a throw I am just going to throw the ball away, I don't want to risk a TO.

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.
Don't you guys do the R trigger accelerated play action when you think pressure is coming?

Ponder's ACC is apparently not bad. I guess it is you, Soka! ....but on the other hand, his THP is 84... lower than any starting qb not named Fitzpatrick. Stafford is the highest. Only 99 starter.

Didn't even know this was a thing.

Shortens the animation by at least half.

It still makes a quick fake, doesn't fully cancel it.


If I'm wrong then I haven't been playing as sober as intended.
