AirBrian, when can you play today? I'm off today and can get the game in virtually any time today except 1pm-3pm and 4pm-7:30pm est.

No hard feelings Livewire! You've been a very nice guy in the past, I don't want this to loom around. I apologize if my play bothered you, I'll make sure to correct it going forward.

Sorry about the drama, I should have just messaged you on AIM. Livewire has always been a stand up guy, and it would've been a better idea to work it out between the two of us, rather than have it posted on the board. Lack of judgment on my part made this bigger than it should have been.

No worries, I should apologize too as I was pissed that I thought I was coming under fire unfairly for winning a game. It is always entertaining to play you (you make the Bills a power team, how the hell?) and I look forward to playing you and Wellington the most in the league. Good luck in the playoffs, if I'm lucky, maybe we'll have a rematch! :D

Because I like the madden neogaffers the best, I'll clue you in on a good deal for a 12 + 1 Xbox Live card.

Buy.com has the 12 + 1 card for $42.99, and if you are new to google checkout you can get another 10 bucks off the purchase. No tax and also free shipping on the product brings the total to $32.99 for the whole purchase. Here is the link:

http://www.buy.com/prod/xbox-360-li...d-free-1-month-bonus/q/loc/108/201975268.html

I figured 33 bucks for 13 months is worth it. I ordered a card last night.

Whelp.

With all the issues this league is having with everyones system dieing, and ebgames 20 percent credit ending soon, combined with the fact i dont have a damn 360 I'm trading in my madden game and putting it towards mlb 08 before the deal is done.

See you in 09. Someone else can take over for me.

Same. The failures of systems and the XBL outages have claimed too many. See you in 09.

First failed Madden season ever? :[

There goes your chance at an undefeated season, DM. :lol

All these AFC people are quitting because I'm the number one seed. Don't be scared, MrBob!

Worst part about this is that the upgrade I was referring to earlier was Fargas. They finally updated Fargas to make him a legit starting back. I was gonna tear shit up. :(

I can play tomorrow if you're around.

I just realized that I added Birdman02 to my friends list. And you are Birdman1702. I was getting pissed at Birdman02 for not responding to me!!!

It still has some juice in it! I say we can finish.

If anybody needs a fill in for any team, just contact me. I'll be around most of Friday and Saturday. Oh, and Sunday after the games.

[edit] Maybe you should unlock the last week, FMT. Some people want to play those games and it's kinda dumb not to let them when everything else is unlocked and it's the only game they can play. :\

Yeah, I was still figuring I could play now and again, but my 360 died this week. :( Worse yet, it's not a RROD, so it's gonna cost me :(

Since a siginificant number of players cannot finish this season, why would anyone want to continue? Who wants to be the Super Bowl champ with an asterisk? The facts are many people can't finish and I think that should be enough to say goodbye.

Even if the results of this season are deemed "unofficial", there are more than enough players left to have a playoff. FMT paid monies for LD, might as well use it. No harm in finishing. Only non-Madden GAF leagues are supposed to die. Either way a decision should be made sooner rather than later. I can trade this turd in alongside Mass Defect for Burnout on Tuesday!

Geeze, you really want this thing dead. It's alright if you want to call it quits, but a number of people still want to play. Let those people have their fun. :p

Is your xbox red ringed as well, btw?

Maybe the top teams of everyone left who cares about playing and has working 360 consoles should just advance to the playoffs.


If we're not going to finish out the season, then I say we should do it tournament style with all of the remaining teams. I just want to keep playing, and I really have no shot at the playoffs.

I only have two games left to play, daw840 and birdman. I can get those done tonight and have all 16 weeks done. If I win, both, I'd be 8-8. I'd like a shot at a strike-shortened season SuperBowl championship! :D

I don't want it dead. I am frustrated like the rest of us. However, I expected this season to be well into the playoffs by now if not close to done. I just think it should be dissolved into a tournament at this point so people that are remaining can just play and then whoever wins will get to either keep their team or get first pick for '09. A decision needs to be made soon though.

And no, my X360 did not RROD.
