we're both in deep shit
Did you throw a bunch of picks too? Once people see the in-season regression it might change the way people play.
Also, will you be around after the 'Vance tomorrow?

wait is there in-season regression AND progression?
Yes. If you don't hit minimum requirements for certain players and have bad games, you will lose points to pertinent attributes.
Fumble twice, you'll lose a point or two to carrying.
Throw 3+ picks and you'll lose a couple points of awareness.
It gets expensive to recoup.

Wow that's crazy. Does Awareness matter at all for QBs when we are user controlling them?

no
it does make your controller viberate when pressure is near I think, but that's about it
I thought it was suggested last year that lower awareness also causes more throws to be "off" due to pressure and whatnot as well, though it was probably just speculation.

that was my own speculation (and others) based on some readings, but there was a shit ton other people who did a bunch of data stuff and said it don't matter.
When I played last year with Jimmy G, who had low awareness, I didn't see much in "off throws" that couldn't be attributed to lower stats.
Appendix right?
Apparently I was a little too early for the small mico-incisions back in 2004 (4th grade), because when I had appendicitis they cut a seven inch gash on my stomach. Was in the hospital for a day or two.
Glad it was easy for you and it went well

He doesn't even know what yesterday was about
Who does trasher even throw to without Calvin Johnson? He must feel like a lost puppy.
NHL comes out tonight. Just saying!
I think NHL peaked in that 7OT game we lost with an own goal during the beta.
Thats the happiest ive ever been to lose.

GG, buddy. You definitely were moving up and down the field on me. If you didn't have the picks, you probably would've won.

I think my router sucks. I am just going to get a 100 ft ethernet cable and go wired from here on out. The lag was killing me until I turned off the stream.
Either way, crazy game. I was down 18-0 going into the 4th and managed to score 21 straight to set up a game winning drive for ez. Got very lucky with a pick to seal it. I lost both Diggs and Kyle Rudolph in the game, Rudolph is actually out for 9 weeks now. Absolutely brutal since I am somewhat bereft of talent outside of AP and some defenders.
One thing is for sure, Treadwell is a fucking beast. He's like Alshon Jeffrey lite.

I feel like it got significantly worse after our long break. Before there were certainly plenty of times when players were bad, but it almost always felt like real matches still. Now I feel like 80% of people you get treat competitive matches like pubs, dick around and can barely be bothered to pay attention.
Maybe I just need to level up to my old rank and it will be more serious there, but I get the feeling that isn't necessarily the case. It certainly isn't encouraging me to play more.
I've played with plenty of people in the higher ranks who are not that good or screw around way too much. I feel like I've been playing well enough to get out of this shitty silver stage but it's tough to break into gold. The match I had this afternoon was great, all 5 guys on the mic (Though I had to mute one) and we had a comeback. This last one, nobody on mic, and people were baiting left and right. It was hard to deal with.

You should start playing Dota again!
The world needs for Jeff Fisher to go 1-14 and then get fired
Would put him right at .500 lifetime

agree he's easily the worst part of the show an actual dickbag and dirty coach.
When I lived in Memphis, I'd listen to the post-Titans game coaches show... He was a miserable turd- a black hole that sucked any joy and charisma out of his surroundings and crushed it into nothingness.

Anyone up for a pickup game after the 49ers rams game?

Did the DM/DCX game happen?
You know Hard Knocks is over, right? preseason/TC only.

Dang, no I didn't know that. This is my first season watching hard knocks. The way the last episode ended it didn't seem like it was over. Oh well. It was fun to watch.
Sucks that previous seasons of Hard Knocks aren't on HBO Go. I haven't checked Amazon Video but I would be interested in watching some of the previous ones. Any Hard Knocks that are 'must watch'?
edit - Oh cool. The Bengals were on hard knocks in 2013 per IMDB. Still can't figure out where to stream it. Almost all of HBO's catalog is on Prime except Hard Knocks... doh!
