How is he still high 80s? And how is Rivers high 80s? LAME! At least they lost weapons. Although, Bush shouldn't be an elusive back. He hasn't broken a tackle all year.

No, I think he broke a couple of them on his career long 22 yarder earlier this season.

:lol

I actually saw that game, btw, and he didn't break 1 tackle on that run. It was just a wide open gap Seattle let him through.

3.7 rush average, most fumbles and drops, and he's still highly rated.

Fargas: 4.5 average, more yards (over 1k), only 2 real fumbles and only 1 lost (1 fumble was stupid Lolpepper's fault!), and an amazing 3rd/4th down conversion percentage.

Did you see the game where he had 270 yards from scrimmage and returned a punt 74 yards for a TD?

Looks like a couple of nice upgrades for my secondary and another LBer with a weapon.

Still no weapon for Big Ben though :/

Birdman, I'll be free tonight or Saturday afternoon to play our game. I'd prefer tonight if possible, let me know!

I'm not gonna be able to play tonight. My wife and her sister are watching movies tonight, and, unfortunately, the 360 is the only DVD playe we have in the house right now. What time Saturday are you available? We're doing a Christmas thing that day, but I'm not sure if it's around lunch or dinner...or both. Tomorrow night would be perfect for me, but I guess that's not an option for you. :(

Luke,

Do you want to play our Week 7 matchup before you head off (doing whatever you'll do)?

I already played my Week 8 game versus FMT.

Games like that are just no fun. LJ just kicked the shit out of me with a 67 rated team. GG LJ, you played really well.

After our first drives, I thought the game was going to be a shoot out and it was, until that open half KR. Everything kind of went my way after that. You had two drives die because of a fumble and pick, both were at midfield, one was around my 30. Closer game than it looked. Good game.

Yea, I might be able to do tomorrow night but it would be very late (after midnight). Otherwise, I will be out of town (but will have access to a 360) starting Sat morning. So sometime Saturday afternoon or early Sunday morning. Otherwise I'm booked until next Wednesday night.

I got my 3rd win!!!!!!! My goals have been met. :D



Seeing as this is likely my only win during this season I would appreciate it if the commissioners would look closely at my stats in hopes of attaining my first weekly award. :D

LT had a pretty good game.

141 yards, 19 attempts, 7 btk, lng run 63, 1 rushing TD, 1 receiving TD, 24 receiving yards


*high five*

If you hand the ball of to LT on every play except 4th down you should be able to get at least 2 more wins.

I posted several pages ago about my awful availability and how I didn't expect I'd be available at league-friendly times until after Christmas.

I said I didn't want to pull out from the league (but I definitely didn't rule it out -- indeed, I think I wrote the post in such a way that suggested I was willing to pull out if it was felt to be in the league's best interest, because as I said in that post, my availability as it has been in the time leading up to Christmas -- especially after I fell ill at what would have been an ideal time for me to catch up -- isn't fair to other coaches).

No one responded. I figured that just meant people were satisfied to wait and let me catch up. Maybe it just means I'm invisible/nobody cares (thanks a lot, jerkwads!) :)

Malley and CJ, I might be able to play this weekend, but it's getting close to Christmas so it'll be touch and go. Let me know.

Unless the PS3 version is gimped again next year, I vote we do this league on PS3 next year. These X360 failures are not going to stop and I will likely be due for another by next year at this time.

I voted DS league!

The people red ringing now are people who hadn't had the dual heat sink, right? Maybe it will iron out once everybody's breaks and gets a new heat sink. :lol

Although, there are always the other failures. My last 2 were disc drive failures, the two before that had GPU failures, and my current one has a little of both (DREs and scrambled pictures ftl).

no way am I buying a PS3 just for madden. If we are moving to PS3 this will probably be my last season. I too hope that with the dual heatsinks that the problems will die down. If mine could break one more time so I can get one with hdmi that'd be great though.

Since the Wii is selling so well, maybe we can have the Madden 09 league there!

We can start exchanging friends codes now! :D

Now you'll finally have time to play Heavenly Sword -- the game you said was better than anything that came out on 360 this fall! God works in mysterious ways, Mr Bob.

No one else is replacing me and touching my games while the X360 is off to be healed. :)

Uhm... PS3 season wouldn't be until August 2008 if it happened at all.
