Ah shit, I see that LJ is banned. I think it's from a gaming forum thread. Season 12 should require people to sign forms swearing they won't post there. I hope he has AIM and is on it often.
I agree. Unless you have ban immunity, refrain from posting in the gaming forum at all costs! You won't be missing much, anyway.

So he was banned for being a known sales age guy? Or did he post something after the fact?

I don't keep up with anything over there.

And I haven't had a top TE before. I've had to deal with Drop Pass Jerrrrrremy Stevens, and recently with over the hill Marcus Pollard (who could catch...but was molasses slow)

Ugh, still no game versus True, Ror, or Dammitmatt :(

You have been banned for the following reason:
Misrepresenting Live vs PSN. Silver members suffer delayed demo releases as well.

Thats what LJ told me. Seems like a stupid reason to be banned a month. But I guess they are cracking down or something.

Great....my first game of the season is against the defending superbowl champs! I can't wait!!! Oh, and then I get to play LJ's Bills!!

EDIT: I just want clarification....can I use Trent Green and Ronnie Brown even though they're on IR?

That's absolutely ridiculous that he got banned for essentially speaking the truth. Some of the mods are really defensive about Sony sometime. Even though I have every video game system that Sony has ever made and two Sony TVs, I got banned for three days for "trying to rile up Sony fans" or some idiotic thing like that for suggesting that MGS4 might hit the 360. Hello?!? I'm a fucking Sony fan, and I'm only the 1 millionth person who has suggested that.

Free LJ!!!
 
Ando, daw....what are your GTs??? I don't think I have you on my friends list. Ando, let me know if you want to play a game. Daw...we are now division rivals so I don't want to give you any new sneak peaks :)

The whole "mgs4 on xbox" thing was banned a long time ago, I think... That's why I don't post much there. I can't keep up with all the new rules or trends and it's full of tards. ^^

PS: owning a system doesn't mean you can post whatever you want
PPS: you're not a Sony fan. Yes, I can tell you what you're not. I'm an authority on the subject!

I will if you don't mind that it's a little experimental, so I may take a bit longer calling plays than usual. Trying out my new playbook and quarterback.

Haven't played in a while!

Now that Rors has won it all, he can afford to become experimental and not play often. He'll become the Marlon Brando of the GAF league.

Noodlearm futures! McCown had a great game besides a few horribly thrown deep balls and some bad drops by the WRs. 8 below 200 yards and 3 tds. Good job McClown!

Hate playing against Jacobs, though. ><

New playbook is ok. Wish I could combine the running in my old one with the passing in the new one...><

You can't Eeyore me!

I saw what you did with All Day against me in a scrimmage against the Vikes. Granted, Deuce and Reggie aren't Purple Jesus, but they're both good and having both in the backfield is going to be a nightmare to defend against.
 
LukeSmith....I just listened to the Sports Anamoly....how can a valuable member of the elite Madden league let a casual sports game fan (and Kingdom Hearts cosplayer) beat you even once at Madden?!?!?

For shame!!!

BAAAALLLINNN'
Thomas Jones is such a monster in this game holy shit. :lol

Maybe It's just cause I am used to being slow with Jacobs, but Jones is a truck icon and fast. :lol

Only problem is that the Jets can't block nearly as well as the Giants. The way I run is I let the play develop in front of me then mash on the sprint (like everyone should be) but even while waiting for a lineman or the FB to make it to the second level and pick off the last safety, I'm left to fend for myself as the guy totally goes the wrong way, it sucks.

Anyone not named Ando want to scrimmage?

No offense, but I just hate playing against that D...

That was the first time I have ever manually controlled a DE all game and I got 6 sacks FTW!! But that was only because maybe 90% of your passing plays were play action roll out and for some reason my guy was always left untouched with a free shot at Cutler. The couple times you did a straight drop and every run play I was stuffed at the line and didn't do anything. Other play action plays also leave defensive tackles with wide open lanes to the QB. I think this is why some people believe manual defense on the line is too powerful. If I wasn't controlling that end, he'd of run into the RB to tackle him and be fooled by that roll out every time. But since I knew it was coming it was a sack. Should have had 2-3 more as well with him but I just wasn't used to being able to just tee off on a guy like that and ran right by him.

I need to find a new playbook. Someone told me the Skins playbook is great with Tampa so I tried that in our scrimmage and it was total garbage.

Did it hurt having to tee off on JCut? It's always hard playing against Fifty because it's like I'm beating up on myself!

Most of the passing plays in the Denver playbook that I like are play action, and they work great as long as I don't get sacked, and that usually only happens when someone is manually controlling a lineman. I might have to find a new playbook :(

FisheyeLens... I'll hop on if that's a "yes I'm interested."

I'd like to play with injuries off, since a big factor is getting to know my starters.

Invite sent. I'm on a conference call right now so forgive me if I space out for a play or two.

I tried it but it's not for me. The singleback passing formations are nice, and so are the running plays, but there simply aren't enough shotgun plays to work with a great passing team.

:lol @ Matt playing Madden in the middle of the day during a conference call. We've created a monster!!
