Matrix
LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world hed rather have. The problem is, Dwyanes not a woman.
I hate this game.
I lost by a point to DM,but good god I shouldnt have.I stopped him on a drive and he should have punted,but no the cpu decides my player should taunt after making a huge 3rd down stop...I get a penalty,dm gets into my redzone for free,I stop him on 3 downs again,but he gets a nice free fg ...fuck this game,fair play on? my ass!
I also witnessed DM and myself catch deep passes with double coverage,but a simple 2 yard throw dropped like 20 times :| I'm seeing the same NCAA from last year,except in this years version it happens maybe 10% less.
I dont mine losing,I fucked up with an option play near the end of the game when I shouldnt have ran it,but take away that bs penalty and free fg and I still win despite my fuckup that lead to a td for dm.

Bah, just played a random person to see if the email thing was working...
So anyway, he disconnects at the very end and like always the win doesn't register even though I finished out against the cpu. And I didn't get an email for it either.

I did all of that.
I'm sick of dealing with this game tonight. Wins not registering and no stats emails... Feels like I'm playing a PS2 game online again... I'm going to get some sleep. Hopefully gstaff got the stats email so he can forward it to ya. Cya tomorrow
gg Malley, I couldnt help but feel like I was getting robbed most of the game though :lol
fumble the kickoff to start the game hugerolleyes. I dropped your back deep in the backfield on that one play......oh......facemask. PR for a TD. I hate the kicking on AA. theres no way you can control it in some situations. I guess it turned out to be a decent game but I just felt like I wasnt getting any breaks except for on some of my passes.
Lonestar theres a second page of settings when you are about to send someone a challenge. you have to click R or L to get to it.
BTW my stats emailed to me just fine

Wow I just got the shit kicked out of me by Lonestar and Alabama. I would ask EA why HFA means your players all shit their pants and play like 8th graders after a turnover or sack, but Ole Miss does shit its pants and play like 8th graders in Tuscaloosa in real life so who am I to complain? We did ask for more realism.
No email for me yet either but I don't want to look at it right now anyway.

He threw one of those f-ing miracle deep throws for td,nothing I could do to stop that...Like I said I did a stupid option play near the end of the game,I meant to just run with the QB but I just reacted * feared I would fumble the ball with the QB,but this isnt last years madden with the hitstick :lol * and pressed the white button instead of holding onto it.
I would have won the game anyway if EA didnt fuck me over with that bs taunting penalty.
This game is still messed up. I had a pass tipped away by a defender that was at least 3 yards away from the ball. In the replay the ball got no where near his hand but it still got tipped away, my TD run was stopped and then another defender juggled the ball three times before he caught it.
Whatever.
And the drills in this game are no where near as good as Madden. Ugh.

The rule for this game is that EA is going to fuck you. hard. every night. with a gag ball in your mouth.
It's so bad when I play random people that I feel like God's playing some kind of trick on me. Everything that should logically happen, never fucking happens.
When a guy runs goaline when im on my 20, and I line up in 4 wide, I should score a TD. Every fucking time. No question. EA shouldn't even have the plays run. If a guy picks goaline and spreads the damn line, it shouldn't matter, I should just get awarded six points.
Of course, instead, I get sacked 13 times in one game (HFA yaaay!), throw 2 miracle picks, and he completes 3 absolutely laughable bombs.
Whatever, it's just a joke to me playing random people online anymore. I remember in the early days of madden 03 when it was really, really rare to run into this shit. ever since, it's just gotten worse evey year. Now it's the RULE. When I run into someone who plays straight it's a freaking miracle.
I pray Tiburon *actually* fixed all the B.S. with this adaptive A.I. for Madden 06
P.S. why in the hell do the NCAA devs feels it's okay for people to go for it on fourth down wherever they are on the field, but they boot me from a game for excessive pausing instead of just fucking blocking me from pausing? I want answers.

FMT you beee-attttttch! What part of "Yes, I will be joining the league!" did you not understand? I feel so abused.
if you can't be trouble to post more than one time in the league thread in a week, how could we depend on you for league play?
