It's your crown to lose.

Well you're 0-3 against me in Madden 12 (and 0-1 in NCAA 12). The crown looks nice on you.

 

[CB3]

youre cute when you lose.

DCX

Its a shame your not cute when you lose. Because you would basically be a dime piece if that were the case

NCAA was a gift. Christmas (or Hanukkah if you prefer) isn't going to be coming to the LiveWire residence in Madden 12.

You're just lucky there are no CPU teams to off you in Madden

 

[storybook77]

Yeah, I always wondered why Story and DCX didn't play!

We did last year but since I skipped out early last year coupled with the fact that the Rams actually have a somewhat decent team compared to what I had last time, I just decided to go with them.

 

[BigAT]

You suck and your team sucks.

It sure felt like Christmas with Peyton throwing 11 picks in 3 games. Or maybe it was Thanksgiving, considering the way John Jesus Beck was carving up your defense?

lol so salty, i could only imagine how you felt when i bounce you from the playoffs that year.

Who was that aimed at?

You mean the last time you beat me besides yesterday. 2 years ago. yeah i guess

It was nice of the CPU to give you those picks. Since you were too busy getting pancaked by my 70 rated OT to do anything yourself

Well I'd certainly hope the CPU would give me a pick when you're throwing into triple coverage. And being pancaked didn't stop me from switching over to a DB and user picking your terrible, TERRIBLE passing decisions.

 

[DCX]

Who was that aimed at?

probably me.

DCX

None of your picks were user picks anymore than DCX making magical breaks on post routes while playing corner is him playing.

Press A, fellas

 

[levious]

I'd like to swear now that I do not use A on defense.

That's so cute that you think I would use the A button. I can see though how that would be your best hope for a comeback. I mean look at CB all nuthugging you by jumping in with a pic right away.

I don't use the auto-strafe or Defensive Assist. I would have thought you'd have recognized that when I overran Wayne on a sideline throw which turned into a gain for you inside the 5.

 

[LukeSmith]

When is Bluemax unbanned?
I miss him

 

[BigAT]

Who was that aimed at?

Who wasn't it aimed at? I'm rolling down the road with my street sweeper spraying buckshot at the entire league. Be on notice, all of you suck and all of your teams suck.

Should've circled back for a guaranteed pick.

 

[DCX]

I do not press A. Keep hating though. I get burnt alot, and i get lucky alot, it's in the game fellas.

Not moving the joystick after the snap constitutes the same thing.

Picks are guaranteed anyway with Luke throwing the ball.

I got burnt alot when people move receivers in motion, i lose my assignment. It happened so much so i started playing DE and LB :/ Keep trying.

I was being serious about the circle back btw lol.

Why play CB? What advantage does playing CB have over Safety? Curious to your reasoning cuz I don't see why anybody would do this.

 

[LukeSmith]

Picks are guaranteed anyway with Luke throwing the ball.

Someone bring up the stats from the leagues the last few years where you were the king of the pick, setting and then resetting the NFL record in back to back seasons.

Those same stats will probably show you that Peypey was the highest rated (or second highest rated, [English]) QB for the dynasty. You cite preseason because you're a Redskins fan and that's all you have.

And really, we all know, it's all you'll ever have.

Was your loss in Ann Arbor preseason?

And when I beat you in Madden franchise in "regular season," what will your excuse be then?

I would, but your in my division now

 

[Ramirez]

Whole lot of dick waving by people who will be irrelevant come playoff time.

If one were to look at the Community leaderboard, it looks like the 49ers (lol) already have the SB wrapped up, 20-4 is it now FMT?

I'll play if anyone is around.

I only count 3 losses. The other came when my internet disconnected and was feasting on cb. But my 3 losses i got crushed.

Here is how to beat sf: dont turn the ball over, stop the run. You win!

Since it seems we are mere days away from starting the franchise, it's time for an old favorite to return:

FORMAT: Team A [Point Spread] Team B Over/Under / Moneyline

How to Read the Lines:

Point Spread: Bolded teams are the favorite to win (non-bolded teams are the underdog.). Team A will always be followed by the point spread. The point spread is the expected point difference between the two teams. If the favorite is Team A, it will be written as Team A - (minus) x, where x is the point value. If the favorite is Team B, it will be written as Team A + (plus) x, where x is the point value. (Example: Team A [-6] Team B - Team A is expected to win by a margin of more than 6 points. If Team B were to win outright OR lose by 6 or less points, they "cover the spread" and bettors picking Team B would win.)

Over/Under: An betting odd that contemplates the total combined score of both teams. The over/under, or O/U, is set at a specific point total, and bettors must decide whether they believe the combined final score of the game will be over or under that total. (Example: O/U = 56, Final score is Team A 21 Team B 38. (21+38=59) Bettors of the OVER would win.)

Moneyline: The amount of money paid out for bettors of a particular team. Team A is first, Team B is second. If a team has a + before the number, a bettor would make that amount of money for every $100 spent. If it is a minus, a bettor would have to bet that amount of money to win $100. If it s (Example: -180/+180 If Team A wins, $100 bets pay out $180. If Team B wins, $100 bets pay out $55.56)


Without further ado...
