I'd like to thank Luke for telling me not to quit and to give up. I agreed to play my game with him and I actually won. I finally unlocked the 80% completion achievement after the game (18/20) :lol I got real lucky though..he fumbled at the 1 yard line! I won't feel guilty over that because I've had some ridiculous luck in the past..I played smart enough. Only one INT thrown.

I'd also like to add that Joseph Addai must be the most fragile back in the game. He's been injured in every one of my games, and in this game he got hurt twice. Did the developers not realize this game has a ridiculous amount of 1 qtr long injuries? It's just silly.

That was a bullshit fumble. I'm done with this game.

Awesome game for the Raiders again. FUCK YOU, EA! You can't keep us down!

So what's the feeling in Raider Nation... is Justin Fargas the future, or just a stopgap? Inquiring minds with difficult offseason fantasy decisions want to know!

He's had 4/5 100+ yard games. Jordan lost the job and is now the spell back. He doesn't spell often, though. Fargas stays in practically every down. Jordan came in like 2 times today and Fargas too 33 snaps and caught 2 balls. He has always been decent, but now he's getting all these carries and the OL is playing excellent. He doesn't cap a lot of drives, but he should get you a decent amount of points through rushing yards alone.

That said, the remaining games are @GB (tough place), Indy, @Jacksonville, and SD. Tough stretch and most FF playoffs start next week.

It all depends on what you have in terms of depth at RB, but you shouldn't worry about him not starting unless something happens in terms of injury. He's not starting because of Jordan's back. He's starting because he won the job
and because Kiffin has a USC bias!!

Not worried about him not starting, he's been in my lineup for the past few weeks (we've got a pretty big league, so he's a pretty solid #2. More worried about what the team might do next year.... whether they keep him around in a starting role or if they seek out a new guy. Seems to me that he's probably earned the job, but that's just me...

I play in a 16 team league and I have had Fargas on my team since Jordan was hurt in the beginning of the season. It has turned out very well in the last couple of weeks.

He did better than pussy Shaun Alexander

Jordan wants out already, so most likely he'll be sharing carries with Michael Bush when they release or trade Jordan.

I didn't know you meant a keeper league. :p

Good news! My 360 is supposedly on its way back already. UPS doesn't have tracking info yet for it though.

if you go to xbox.com and review your repair status it will usually give you the ups tracking number

new rankings and awards up!

and the week is officially opened!
Patrick Willis had 17 ****ing tackles (5 for a loss), 1 sack, and 1 pass deflection. That's not defensive player of the week worthy? 17!

Yeah, it's got to be off a win, or else I'd ask for my week 2 SOULJA performance of 14 catches, 200 some odd yards, WAY too many TD catches. But, a 45-42 loss in OT (After a 21 point 4th quarter comeback by me)

Why that wasn't game of the week, I don't know. It was a thriller, and still in my mind, as I'm sure Malley would agree.

Nah, just a hard day. :lol

Sounds good!
 
Thanks to Blockbuster, I have a (temporary) working copy of Madden.

True,

We need to get our game in today if it's possible. Sorry for the delays.

All,

I'm around and ready for a srimmage if anyone would like. Let me know!!!

So what's the deal with Ando's games? I never see him online or on XBL? Has anyone played a match against him since he's been banned?

Right I put that number in on UPS.com and it doesn't come up with anything. Hence my comment.

Edit: And now its updated. Why has it gone from Texas to Kentucky?

Hey what about our 41-38 game?!? I was down 17-0 after the first quarter before we went back and forth before I finally clinched the win late....

Damn I feel like i just blew two chicks backs out. and trying to brag about who took the money shot better...

That was a good one too though, but the decision on my end to heave that shit with Tjack made me hate that all together...

still a great game though...

GOTY b

Not complaining too hard (though the constant run out with the DE was irritating), but no need to run a play with 35 seconds left, and 38 seconds on the play clock. No need to force a play, especially if you are running an offensive play instead of a kneel, Striker.

But man, I couldn't stop the 3rd down. And I do hate the patch, or lack there of. That first INT, my WR was caught with your DB, and I still threw it at him. It was a go, they should have been twice as far up the field.

GG, INT's continue to kill me.

Those INT's were bad, mainly since I didn't even do anything to disguise. Though I tried doubling Braylon a bunch.

What bugs me about the DE going outside is half the time the CPU controls itself. It sent McCray out there juking (wtf). I didn't know DE's can juke. But it was hard in itself to get pressure on you. I believe I got one sack all game.

GG and I really need to get better on offense. I can run, but not much of a passing offense.

Just want to say GG to GCQuinton! He and I just played a GREAT game and both sides deserved to win.

Yeah, that was definitely a battle. GG, man. See ya at the end of the season.
