I wonder what would happen if they collided since everyone bounces off and gets injured against Vick and Freeman (and Willis kills everyone)...

Explosion!

Vick's already gotten hurt. He is only invincible in community games.

Freeman is a whole different issue

the play before the fg formation was a knee if you remember, I could've let the clock go just in fg formation. It was just in bullshit time and I was messing around. Then you call TO and I think fuck it, why not, it's a 22 point game.. doesn't matter either way. Called a screen for 10-11 yards. Now everyone's upset. Got the hint, won't happen again.

I'm not mad, nor was I after.

I just was unsure why you went into FG position with time ticking and on 3rd down.

But after that game I am frustrated with my play on offense. I couldn't do anything at all. When Greg Little was open on some later drives, he would go completely off route and McCoy would miss him. He has some nice numbers but awful route running (high 40's lol).

mik was running up the score as well. Fucking arrogant bastard should have been kneeling for the entire second half. Instead he forced me to give Lord Brady a 3.0 QB rating. Think of the ratings Goodell!

Just finished Space Marine. Best $4 I have spent in a long time. As soon as I finish Deus Ex I am buying it on PC. Fantastic combat and a smartly sparse story that picks up at the end. The epilogue....cannot wait for a sequel. Man I hope there is a sequl.

The whole world just feels right. Perfect weight and the guns all feel so solid. I already loved Relic but seeing them do a game like this so right makes me think they are probably the most underrated devs out there.

So good.

Thanks for pushing it Bob! About time you said something less than retarded to me.

About the QB sneak banning. Is it in all situations banned to use it? Or just the goal line formation? I think I have it in a big I form with 1 WR and 2 TEs, is that one banned too?

mik is unbeatable
Why is EA's franchise site fucked and is there any other way to access the video highlights from our league other than going through it?

Qb sneak 100% banned. Designed qb draw out of the gun is ok though

Didn't think you were mad (prolly cause of the Butters avatar more than anything), it's usually the people I don't play and just hear about my games that like to comment. So I have Reggie Bush and the best tackle in the game, I run to the outside. This is what you have to shut down first against me. Ramirez is the exception but I apologized for that community game right out the gate lol. And yeah your receivers are about as good as my dbacks hands.

Lousaka Polite deal looking better and better. Averaged 3 yards a carry on 6 carries in week 3. Not that you guys would know since the stats didn't upload for some reason. I created a highlight, have anything to do with it?

You take a chainsword. You take a bolter gun. You don't hide behind cover like a little bitch but run into a massive horde of enemies to take them down!

Why don't we just do a Wednesday/Sunday hard advance?
Click to expand...

I would say a better move is Thursday-Sunday. For some people it may be tougher getting the games in during the week. Why don't we go back to the Wednesday/Saturday advancement from previous seasons after this game gets played?

Bengals extend:

QB Dan LeFevour 3 years @ $603,250
CB Pacman Jones 5 years @ $1,671,000
CB Kelly Jennings 2 years @ $2,538,000

Those guys are good CBs, I can stay four deep for cheap, why not.

Got 42 players signed on for next year with $34.5 million left for rookies and FAs.

I remember when running was awesome and required a ton of skill. Very little in the way of auto-moves. Every juke, truck, and stiff-arm was done by the user. You felt like a badass when you actually worked your way through traffic, made that first defender miss and took out the safety for a long TD. Speed backs weren't boulders and strength backs weren't Usain Bolt.

Now, you just press forward and Reggie Bush picks up and throws a defensive tackle, a mlb whiffs at the RB, and everyone else is taken out of position by fallen bodies or because they do that side step animation where they overshoot the guy, then work back towards him. It's so unrewarding and it almost feels like a 4 or 5 yard gain is failure.

This is part of the reason why HBs aren't worth dick in the franchise. Chris Johnson was up for grabs and everyone just yawned.

Sorry I was out all day yesterday. Never really expected that to happen. Now I have to sign myself back up on xbox live because it couldn't charge my card. Look for me post 9 possibly.

I'm telling you, Red Box rental is sweet if you know the game is short and you have time to power through.

It's not something I will do often since I almost never can poop-sock like that, but it's great for situations when you can.

Crow, not sure what I am doing after the Packers game. Will let you know.

None of the Blockbuster / Red Boxes around here have video games to my knowledge. :/

EDIT: Snap. They do now.

I don't know if the week was simmer or not but if Gold can play my team CPU to give a better chance than do that. My computer now fucked up too. I connect my xbox through my computer's wireless... but now I can't even play online because my computer constantly goes to a fucking system repair everytime. It'll restart each time and it seems nothing will fix. I'll be going on attempting to fix this for the rest of the night. Sorry.
