Galaron said:Does anyone know of a league that has ever been played to completion? I joined a league and half of the people didn't even play the first week. I sent a message to the admin and he didn't even respond. I looked on the web site and he had a single post on the message board asking people if they were interested in playing and no responses.
I started a league with 15 other guys on another message board and so far (5 days later) they have played exactly 3 games in week 1.
This isn't a knock against ESPN or the problems with games not reporting or trades, they've done a reasonably good job and their web site league tie-in is brilliant. But people are just too busy or their times are too different (west coast vs. east coast) to get these off the ground. People talk about how ESPN has the better online experience because it has leagues. But I've never been able to get a league going in any sport. It's no ones fault, it just seems like people are too busy. :-(

Gggrrrrr... Well, I'm not going to sit in the lobby any longer.

damn you Bob.....DAMN YOU!!!
College Dropout said:Crime about it is that it was a really strange and interesting game.....So many turnovers and just weird plays. Oh well.........Too much lag.
Wellington said:Rick and I played last night and it was the same as with Bob and College Dropout, lots of lag. I managed to pull it out, but Randy Moss had an insane game on me (8 receptions, 156 yards). I'm usually able to pull ahead early, but I stumble about for the rest of the game. I was up 14-0 in the first, then that became 21-13, then 28-20. I was mortified when he got the ball with 35 seconds left.
I spied half the game trying to hold any potential runs by Culpepper, but he didn't resort to that.
It was all about ball control that game for me. 34 carries with Barber/Joyce, 12 passes with Warner/Manning.
MrBob, though we were former RSC2 team mates, I will go all out to try and beat you!
