LM isn't perfect and i've seen my available cap space fluctuate even though i haven't made any moves.
just get under the cap, you aren't going to get a cap penalty or anything, just cut some nobodies, problem solved, no one gets hurt!

Now that you say that, Wellie did mention a week ago or someting about his cap changing.
I wish Derek would address some of these things.

This sounds reasonable. Honestly I had a few guys on my roster that were low 60s and getting more than a mil a year and I don't think ever even saw the field. I cut them and VOILA. Under the cap.
You need to be ready NOW and only NOW
Just got home. I'll be on in a few minutes.
Excellent. I'll meet you on.

DCX WHY YOU DODGING ME BRO?!?!
I'm going to fucking cut you
GG man. My team went stupid after we jumped out to a 21-0 lead. Brees got wild, and Ingram fumbled (with his 99 CAR rating). My defense tipped passes to your receivers at least 3 times, and I started thinking Madden was out to get me.
But Brees made a clutch throw on the run right as a defender flew by, and Ingram was able to kill the clock before a GW FG. It wasn't pretty, but I'll take a W however I can.
Also, how did Ponder throw a ball 80 fucking yards right on the money???
with the hunting knife?
lol I only count 1 tipped pass to Jenkins but yea GG. You outplayed me. If it weren't for those lucky, random plays, that fell into my lap in the first/second quarter (wheneve rI scored 16 unanswered) then this wouldn't even have been a game. As the weeks go by I get less and less disappointed that I went from playoffs to bust but at least the seasons ALMOST over... sorta.
Its obvious what my team desperately needs and with my big (old) guns on contract years, it looks like my team is going to get worse for next year. There's no way I'm signing a collection of EJ Henderson, Kevin Williams, Jared Allen, Seth Hutchinson, and Antoine Winfield.
I had two dumb plays that really pissed me off. One of your first TD's my guys decided to run away from Ingram and allowed him get a 30yd td up the middle. Then later in the game the same thing happened on a run to the left. Abdullah was waiting for him on the edge but nope he just stands still and doesn't bother to make contact even though I'm running in the direction of Ingram.
I don't know how I got some of those bombs on that one drive but Ponder's sophmore year is looking ugly.
That first bomb was nice. I just chucked it up and Bernard clearly outran the guy but with his shitty catch in traffic rating he drops it (along with 3-4 other catches this game). At least that lucky one with a man on him worked out. lol

Tebow had nothing to do with it. The complete epitome of throwing a game away. Wow. GG
GG, Champ saved the day and Klug + DJ put it away. Can't believe I pulled that one out.
Edit: Tebow kept me in it with that 80 yd TD drive.

Can't help but laugh at this one. Complete domination by my defense and I give it up by my own hand.
1) Leon Hall AHEAD of the receiver on the outside, I switch to him to try and make a play on a deep ball to the endzone, I misplay it and it's a TD.
2) Up 17-12 I snap the ball with 1:13 left on 2nd and 7 he has 1 time out, I pass for god knows what reason, Champ Bailey ints it and takes it to the house. 17-20 after 2 pt.
3) I am driving to try and get the FG, sack/fumble, returned for a TD. Games over.
Unreal.

Wow, Wellie threw a 60 yard taint with 1:03 left. Why not just run it and punt? Or try for a FG? You were up by 5 at the time.
PRAISE TEBOW. He helped cause those late game turnovers. Doing his magic in Madden too. I'm doomed when we play.

Never. I will live and die by Tebow.
Maybe it was just one tipped pass, but I know another ball went through Harper's hands on it's way to Shiancoe. I think I had another bounce off my hands, but maybe that one was incomplete.
I was just hoping to get a hit on Bernard on that 1st bomb. Roman Harper is slow as shit, so I was just hoping to stay close enough to dive for a hit. I dove as soon as Berrian went into the catch animation. Luckily, he made a hit and the ball came loose.
I'm glad to be back at .500. Hopefully, I can continue this run for a few more weeks.
Now with videos. Klug needs to get more playing time. He has 2 sacks despite rarely seeing the field.
Plus bonus Tebow run on the play before the TD pass to Royal.
Tebow willing, you'll be playing against Jason Campbell.

BTW Tebow's release is fucking ridiculously fast. Opposite of real life. Johnson, Abraham, and Dunlap were bearing down on him big time and he still got it out.
I believe Jags and Dolphins is tomorrow, so yeah not advancing tonight. You have until Wednesday anyhow.
As a fellow AT&T DSL customer I feel your pain. But we aren't advancing tonight. Fins and Boys are playing tomorrow.
What grievances do you have with them?
I got here today and it's already stupid that I need home phone service. So I had to go to Best Buy just to see if my phone line was working first (thank god for lenient return policies) and I found it wasn't, so I had to talk to like 3 different people before I got that. Then I found the internet wasn't working. Had to talk to like 3 more people and then they said "oh it's something wrong at your apartment complex. by the way if we find out it's on the inside, we're charging you 125 dollars"
I cannot believe this is the only option at my place. It's not like I'm in the ghetto. WTF it is 2011 get Fios up in here
It took like a week to setup when I moved into my apartment in Chicago and it still occasionally drops. I also watch a lot of Netflix and online streams since I don't have cable so I'm almost always over my cap. My only other option is RCN which is more expensive and is also inconsistent. I'm pretty much in downtown Chicago and I can't even get AT&T U-verse, let alone FIOS. But I'm moving this summer so I'll probably give RCN a shot since I'm working now.
uhhhh there's a bandwidth limit? WTF? i got the elite service or whatever. 6 down 768 up. I didn't see mention of a cap anywhere...
Broadband Usage FAQs
How much data is included in my AT&T Internet service?
Residential AT&T High Speed Internet service includes 150 gigabytes (GB) of data each billing period, and residential AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet service includes 250 Gigabytes (GB) of data each billing period. The data you send and receive each month contributes to your monthly data plan.
They just charge you more if you go over. I think when I first got DSL there wasn't a cap but they must've added it later on.

Rain games always suck...always. I should have lost that game. Two taints, on the same read, same guy, same down and distance WTF
We both did a good job reading the cover 2, and man D and took advantage. I just got a little more from Turner than you did MJD. Not going to lie that last drive of yours was clutch.
Hang in there man, it will come.

I was so salty after that 3rd and 18, 60 something yard TD... that was pretty much the turning point of the game. I dont know why i tried to manually defend there when my stick skills are garbage. I spent the entire 3rd quarter cussing and throwing shit as i re-lived that play...
Either way, GG man. You deserved the win.
Madden GOD's CAN I PLEASE JUST WIN ONE FUCKING GAME? PLEASE?!
how low must you be to be begging for 1 win?
I praise you 24/7 Madden God!!!! And this how you do me?

I tested you with Julio over the middle and you user picked me and a good play, i could have sworn i had the inside to the route but you made a fantastic recovery and play at the ball.
On that play i knew you had the deep coverage and i hot routed Roddy to a fly knowing you would either cover him over the top or commit to Hernandez. When i saw you take your first step back i knew i had you thinking Roddy but i waited until i saw you meet him in the end zone before i threw it to Hernandez.
You had a shot at the tackle but you missed the hit stick. Any type of pressure on that play and i would be dead..i needed good protection to make all that happen down field.
You made similar plays with your TEs, i just stayed in front of you enough to not allow a big play.
Idk what happened on your last drive with that TD pass. It looked liked it went through my CB into your WR hip for the catch :/ lol
