Well, sable and I have a problem. We finished our game, but both of our games froze on the post game report screen. Mine is stuck there just looping a replay and no buttons I press will work. How should we go about with the stats and stuff for the game? We can slightly remember some of the stats, but they would just be estimates. Can we just fill in as much as we remember?

That sucks, just remember as best you can for the important players. I know you probably won't know what the defensive stats are, but if you can ballpark the QB, HB, and maybe a couple of receivers that would be best. Just so something is in there.

Alright I filled in what I could. 90% sure the stats I put in are accurate, or at least very close to what they actually were. Sable can fill in the rest of his game stats.

Just finished my sub game against the Vikings. Was a decent game. Came down to the last play. I made way to many mistakes early that are uncharacteristic. Lots of dumb things went down but end result last play of the game it's a pass over the middle, his WR breaks 2 tackles and walks it in the end zone with no time left on the clock.

Video will be up hopefully sunday and I will enter the scores hopefully Sunday. I have nation licensing board exams over the next 4 days so I will be MIA for the most part.

Keep this gravy train flowin!

BTW: LJ are you in the league? If not you should take one of the open teams.
 
Well if bosevan the Titans owner doesn't get back to me soon I won't be able to play until Tuesday......

Anyone know if hes been on lately?

Good game dude. I thought I was going to lose when you tied the game with 30 or so seconds remaining. Vikings secondary has hands of stone. They managed to get their paws on a few balls during that 2 minute drive, but for some reason they couldn't hold on to it. Stewart fumbled as well, and I couldn't grab it. When you punched it in, I thought I was done because of all the blown opportunities.

Allison got a very good return, I was on my 40 with 28 seconds to go. Made a dumb decision, passed to AP in the flats, and had to burn a TO. One TO left, I threw a seam route to Berrian, hauled it in passed midfield and called my final TO. 7 seconds to go, called a deep post to Allison, caught it and broke two tackles inside the 10 to get in for the score. Miracle win honestly.

Yeah, I'm the Bills dude. Got scorched last week, need to rebound.

OK, Week 2 games that still need to be played:

Indianapolis (Tcvrod ) at Minnesota (SloForce) -- Slo has the RROD, so if anyone wants to sub, contact tcvr0d through XBL. He is checking that as we talked last night.
New England (dammitmattt) at New York (Method) -- Method's 360 is having connection problems, so he had to drop. If anyone wants to sub, contact mattt through XBL.

Pittsburgh (Classic_Gs) at Cleveland (BillRiccio) -- OK, what's going on guys?
Tampa Bay (davidr0xu) at Baltimore (Furio53) -- OK, what's going on guys?
San Francisco (Birdman02) at Tennessee (bonsevan) -- bonsevan, where are you?

Week 3 is looking good so far! :)

NFL Game of the Week:
The Diamondbacks beat the Marlins 5-3. That's right, 5 to 3. As in 5. And 3.
:lol

And boo to the NFC defensive player of the week. Bertrand Berry should get it! 3 TFL, 3 sacks, 1 forced fumble, 1 safety :(

Haha, it's all good. I got a good kick out of the game of the week bit. :D

Tampa Bay (Davidr0xu) hasnt responded to me, not sure why. I havent ever seen him on at the same time, but I sent him a message with no response, so not really sure.

i'll call him tonight. He normally plays a bit every day. Haven't talked to him in a few weeks so hopefully nothing bad happened.

I think 6-7pm CST is the easiest time for him to play. Let me talk with him.

The Drizzler, are you around? I can sub for the Rams right now if you want to play your week 1 game. Just let me know.

Also, we have 4 unplayed games for week 2 still. What is the status of these games? If anyone needs a sub for a RROD victim, please post here and let us know.

edit: NVM Drizzler, I see your having a party tonight. Hope you have fun. I will be around most of tomorrow though, just post here and I will sub for your week 1 game.

Yeah he said he would be on yesterday. I assume that means he messaged the guy he's playing etc..

edit: It says he was just on XBL. I sent him a pissed off brotherly love message. We'll see if it works or if he just ignores me from now on :lol

I will, but I don't know if AB wants subs for people who are supposedly still in the league. Vumpler, have you heard anything?

I think Davidr0xu is M.I.A.

Still a ton of people that have only played 1 game so far and its week 4 :(

Send him an XBL message. His gaf name isn't approved to talk in the online chat so you have to reach him there...

If he doesn't contact people in the next few days drop his ass. He's my little brother and is super diligent about any type of game scheduling. He normally gets games in early.

But I live 3 states away from him now so I can't exactly control the situation. I called him and he said he would try to get ahold of his opponent but apparently you have different schedules.

I'm not going to play a father figure and force him to play his games anymore. If he's not up to it then I apologize for bringing in a flake :/
