So would it count if we end up being slotted to play? We both played the game based on the assumption that it was our official round 2 game so we both gave it our all and I barely won in a tight game against a player that I'd never beaten before.

I guess it would only be fair since you were playing under the assumption that it was the matchup.

Matchups are based on seeding. Bracket is placeholder just like leaguedaddy brackets!

Are we supposed to do stats or anything? Broncos won 34-0. Rough game for Bluemax. Walker only had 4 catches, and two of them were not the jump animation. There were also 2-3 incompletions thrown his way. Nothing out of the ordinary.

Meh. I'm fucking sick of the Broncos in Madden. This is 3 straight seasons of the same shit every time I play them. How is Jay Cutler so damned amazing at rollouts? It doesn't matter who is controlling the Broncos, Konex, Ando, you, my mom, you all seem to have the same play style and the same magic touch at running the bootleg and not getting sacked, then finding one of your god forsaken receivers open somewhere 20 yards down the field.

Sigh.

That being said I played like ass on offense. 2 months off + cold hands == meh.

I brought it out last week, but at that point the league had gone kinda poop. I wasn't ducking you, I wanted a rematch for that earlier game!

I did win, on a tighter because of the "bah, he can't come back from 38 to 21", final score 38...to 34.

I only want to play Rorschach. I don't care to go any farther.

35-38 thank you

Lol..I lost the chance to win that game by 1/4 of a yard on an onside kick. I swear to god, my guy recovered the ball exactly 9 and 3/4 yards downfield of where I kicked it from.......fuck

Oh goodie!!!

I get to face two dudes that have never eeeeevvverr beaten me in any sports games whether it's baseball, basketball, or football! You're so kind Rors for the luxury "horse and carriage" treatment to the Final Four of this tournament. :D

BTW, my schedule opened up tonight Slo, so defeat is patiently waiting for you whenever you are ready!

Come on, that's not fair and it's not true. I had not played in over a month, either, and you lost because you couldn't get anything going in the passing game. You got shut out, and you're complaining about my offense? Here are the facts:

- Denver has a large number of designed PA rollout passing plays in its default playbook, so I'm going to use them occasionally. Also, I've played plenty of players who completely shut down the PA (Ando, Wellie, etc.).

- Well over half of my completions were on straight up passing plays, including all of my completions to Walker and Henry

- When Walker is covered one-on-one by a mediocre defensive back, he should win the battle, and that is what he did on the two long passes he caught. The other two were simple crossing routes.

- I don't recall EVER hitting a receiver "20 yards down the field" on the PA plays. All of those completions were to my TE or FB running short drag routes or something similar.

I played a damn good game against you and you can't manage to give me any credit at all? That's bullshit, man.

DM, I don't see you online so hopefully you can still play. I'm going to grab something to eat and then I'll be ready to play (about 15 minutes).

What a way to end my experience with Madden 08. DM crushed me 28-0. I couldn't get anything going on offense and I made some really bad coverage mistakes on D. GG DM, you deserved the W.

Harrington's noodle arm didnt help. You would have a WR open deep and Harrington would underthrow the hell out of him and it turns into a jump ball scenario with 1 WR vs my defense.

Rors, you wanna play our game tonight? I'll be signed into AIM for the next hour or so until my wife gets home and takes over the computer. After that, I'll sign on to XBL, so just msg me whenever.

GG Rors. Ted Ginn was huge in that game for me....he was really the main reason I won...him and a few turnovers. I assume we're not entering stats on leaguedaddy for this thing (their site appears to be down right now anyway)!!

No stats. And while 1 of my players had more yards than your entire team on offense, Ginn was the difference. I couldn't double even double him and he made a few impact plays on 3rd down. Plus, whoever was returning punts for you (was it ginn or booker?)...I couldn't even get the punt or kickoffs to full bar T_T

You played your heart out son....

....JRuss future cancelled? 80GB PS3 was bad enough but cancelling the JRuss show is to much for this man to take!

Yeah, I had Ginn returning punts. I knew something was off with your kicks because all but one of your kickoffs were returnable....and I know Janickowski (sp?) can kick it out the back of the end zone.

The score was 22-10, but I'm hoping the 75 on the bracket will intimidate Matt!!

Yeah, couldn't fill it up...so used to the ps2 version. Normally, I kick them all through the uprights and feel kinda guilty about having a big boot kicker. :lol

BTW, PS3 Madden leagues are looking more and more realistic after news today the government is giving everyone a handout of at least $600 dollars sometime in June!
No excuses now gentlemen...PS3 future confirmed!

Sounds good. You can mail me a money order, but I would prefer the 500 dollar payment to be paypal. I'll get back to you asap.

Slo, if you can make a few Box Friends, and have pictures of a sickly younger sibling, you can get some OT rejects to pay for whatever you want!

I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, but if it involves taking advantage of people, I'm in.

Any time line on the game that is holding up the
superior
NFC side of the bracket? I want to get my loss out of the way.
