I don't think I've ever even gotten more than 6 wins before. I was stuck in the NFC West as the Cardinals and Rams and finally got a good quarterback this year.

This game were playing right now is turning me off of 2K. That slight lag makes it impossible to play on ball d, and when teams realize that, they use that to their advantage.
Edit: you're not a cancer Phee, this game is just trash
Because of the lag, you end up having guess rather than react on defense. The teams that realize this just wait it out for you to guess wrong and go the other way (like those guys tonight)
Add to the fact that most players seem to be rated 99 in three point shooting, driving to the basket, and dunking, and it becomes a game of pick your poison.
Until they can ensure that the defense isn't playing a second behind, I doubt you'll see any semblance of basketball.

It's pretty bad. It's makes defense and shooting jump shots way too hard
Gonna get fucked by the sim monster because you and thrasher are bitches.

Not sure what you're getting at but I lost 7 games by a combined 61 points. I was only really outclassed against FMT in which I lost by 21 due to turnovers and I lost to Crow by 13. Take those two away and I lost 5 games by a little over 5 points average against the NFC West and within the NFC East. Further I lost to the Redskins AI early in the season, and that turned out to be the difference between making the playoffs and not.
Sorry busy all day, I would've been able to like any other day this week but today I was out of the house by 7:45
Bob, this is shameful if true:

You disconnected because Cutler got hurt?
Brandon Marshall should call out Bobby
Wasn't getting at anything. Was just trying to make the point that being +86 doesn't mean anything or help you in your losses. It's not a very meaningful stat.
I used bad wording. Tried to save it the end but was typing between half of Fifa club match and didn't bother going back to it.
There is less points, but certain things no longer need scouted. If you scouted their OVR, then sure, your boned. Not sure what throw power costs, but the price of most the stat scouts are also way down from last year. But basically you have to be way more choosey about who you reallllly want to learn about.
I think I like it this way. People are going to be making gambles in the first round if they don't play it right.
Did you low ball them? I agree that it's stupid if you go too low but all of the people I want to resign did except for a couple who are still in contract negotiations with me.
That's insane. I hope he/she turns up Phee
If I purposely disconnected there can I get my win back? I was burying sanjuro in the first game and in the replay everything went wrong. Missing open throws, receivers slipping in the snow leading to ints, giving up a td in double coverage where both my db and safety watched the wr catch the ball while doing nothing letting the receiver blow by between them. Snow games are the worst.

I've been negotiating with culliver all season. Gave him 20% below to start and working my way up but he still won't bite! We will see if he took my last offer. He can go to FA I don't care. He gots to get up outta here!
LJ losing was good for me. I might actually beat FMT in wild card tiebreakers now if EA follows the rules. Wildcard tiebreaking scenario different for 3 or more teams versus 2. We'll see though.
Hahaha, Samurai Warriors 4 is out today so you should get that for me. One million units down and you still don't give up hope. It is over Ferny. Has been since January 1.

Great use there
Phee said he was a cancer ? Lol
I've been exclusively playing park in the game. Spent all of last week doing so. The lag is there but I'm almost to the point where it's become second nature. I'm able to stick with my guy when people try and do that zig zag BS. Get a lot of rips when they do that.
Were you guys playing in the Rec center
You might want to check out the operation sports forums for sliders.

We don't use any sliders although I think we should!

It's pretty fun and it's nice that the games are so short. The problem is I go back to dota and realize how much better the game is. Just sucks that it takes an hour to play one match.
Also, I couldn't figure out how the queues were so quick when Dota's take so long. Then I realized it just randomly inserts bots into matches to get them started and the bots are fucking braindead. And the game doesn't fucking tell you there are bots so you have to figure out on your own why that one dude is playing like an asshole. I wish there was an option you could choose to wait for full games instead of having bots inserted. Some of blizzard's design decisions are real head scratchers.
Edit: And sorry about the raid. I went to sleep really early on Saturday due to lack of sleep catching up to me. And I don't think you were on when I checked Sunday night.

And I would've made the playoffs if it weren't for you meddling seachickens!
No wonder me and rors are winning so much.
If I had known AZ wasn't queuing with you I would've accepted!

You're too busy hate fucking Destiny to play Dota anyway.
Most accurate description ever.
And Destiny gets at least 4 more nights, as it's the perfect baseball companion. Wonder if I can hate fuck my way to faction level 3 and buy a primary purple gun
Wait, you're getting bots? I haven't had any bots unless someone leaves and then they go ahead and throw in a bot which sometimes is a better player than the scum it's replacing.

Maybe it's due to someone leaving at the beginning, I don't know. I just know people will be complaining about someone then be like "oh, no wonder. it's a bot."
I don't even know how you can tell aside from trying to give them orders I guess.
Those are the fucking worst. And they're so ridiculously good!

Oh, whaaat? Made up players? I guess that shakes things up then. Damn, that is tricky with me having the #1 pick, I should probably spend the points to make sure I hit the home run but the question is how do I decide who to blow all the points on? Should be interesting. Thanks for explaining that and especially for the PM.
So I can probably assume you won't bother with the DLC as they come out?
There are hearthstone bots now? or do you mean the CPU in which case fuck those bots.
There are actually bots on ladder. It's super obvious and Blizzard, in typical Blizzard fashion, isn't doing shit all about it. I faced one on ladder yesterday that had been going for so long that it was a golden Shaman (500+ wins).
It doesn't bother me that they are good, it bothers me that they are so fucking slow.
I most definitely will. The content is fun, playing it 500 times not so much.
