I just saw a video of Peter Gabriel performing on youtube from very recently. Now I dont have much of a visual reference for him past like the 1985 version of himself. But holy shit, this guy does NOT look like Peter Gabriel at all. I get that he is getting up there in age but fuck. His voice is fucking shot too :(

It was jarring enough to me to come post it here.

In Your Eyes is still a rad fucking song.

OMG, I fell asleep when it was 6-6 and the Cardinals were in the redzone. Thought it was pretty much over. Can't believe so much happened after that lol.

I think alchohol played a larger role this time! Sorry we couldn't get a game in.

I was in bed, starting to nod off as the Cards were setting up for the field goal. I had my eyes closed for the actual attempt and only woke up after Michaels yelled, "HE MISSED IT!"

Then I got up and popped on Discord to watch the rest of the shitshow with everyone.
 
Assault is far and away my worst class.

I haven't even tried any other classes. I've mostly been jumping in and out for a match or two at a time so I haven't really looked at the systems. I haven't even bothered unlocking any weapons yet and I think I am level 12.

Also I got a legendary drop from one of those boxes and have no idea how to equip it. I'm great at video games.

The UI is crap as usual. To do the skins when you're on the class selection/spawn selection you have to hit L2 (I think) and then scroll to your weapon, hit x and it will then pop up a list of skins you have and you select the one you want.

This is separate from the menu you go in to buy new guns, etc.
 
Any more it doesn't matter
Who's right or wrong
We've been injuring each other
For much too long
And it's too late to try to save
What might have been
It's over
Nobody wins

Make believin' in forever
Is just a lie
And it seems a little sadder
Each time we try
'Cause it's a shame to make
The same mistakes again
And again
It's over.
Nobody wins

We've gone too far too long
Too far apart
The lovin' was easy
It's the livin' that's hard
And there's no need to stay and see
The way it ends
It's over.
Nobody wins

Oh cool my best OL tore his ACL and is out 46 weeks because of the sim. And my starting RB is done for the season. Fucking lovely.

I'll reset the injuries after the season.

And there is no rule that you can't play the country but... All madden cpu is fucking horrible to play. I'd rather bench my starters and get sim win

Injuries in actual games have been far more devastating for me than sim games. Lost another this week with Sterling Shepard going down for the year with an injury. Pretty sure this has been by far my worst season for injuries in all the years we have been playing.

Oddly enough, I think they have come exclusively to my offense. I have lost for periods of 5 weeks or more:

Eli Manning
Odell Beckham, Jr.
Shane Vereen
Will Tye
Sterling Shepard

Somehow Victor Cruz is my only offensive weapon not to get hurt.

Yeah, injuries are fucking crazy.

Lynch was out 8 weeks for me, and after allowing him the maximum amount of time to heal he broke his collarbone on the first snap back lol
 
Wellie, I don't know who was already injured on your squad...AP is fine, but Linval Joseph is out for 6 weeks with an upper arm fracture.

And Kyle Rudolph has a partial PCL tear, out 6 weeks.
 
This morning driving in to work I saw a car with the lincense plate FITZG11 and an Arizona Cardinals frame. It reminded me of last nights awful game.
 
I played BF for a bit. Single player was ok, I sucked at MP. Probably return it to GF today. Between this and gears both being boring to me, I think I just don't like these types of shooters anymore. Sad!

I haven't played the SP yet, but even that from what I hear is pretty good (by BF standards). The intro was pretty great.

Everyone was healthy.

FML. Kyle Rudolph will have played 3 weeks for me this season. LJ is a top tier DT in the league. Fuck.
 
Luke, let me know when's a good time for you to do an old battle of ours. I'll be free after 7 PT or so tonight, probably about the same tomorrow.

Ya I've lost:

Zeke
Claiborne
Sean Lee
Jaylon Smith
Whitehead
Wilcox
Dak

all for 2+ games (couple for the season like Lee and Smith). Mine are spread out across defense and offense, but all my defensive injuries happened within 2 games of each other.

I've had two injuries on defense in actual games this season, Dick Sherman missed 3 weeks and Wagner missed 8. My other injuries were all offense.

Also I apparently don't know how to use IR because Kearse is healthy but I can't activate him :(

I'll reset the injuries after the season.

Praise be to Yevon. I didn't know that playing the CPU was on the table, but given that I'm out of the playoffs it doesn't matter a whole lot either way. CPU QBs are all stupid accurate anyhow.
