after being pillaged on the recruiting trail, I just locked up a 4 star receiver

too bad its not receivers i need, its like 4 other positions

8/18/2010 6:22:33 PM

Yeah you guys suck at recruiting. Doesn't matter since the league will be dead halfway through next season, but everyone's losing like 15 recruits a week.

8/18/2010 6:28:13 PM

Northwestern down 7-0 early, as Penn State scored a TD on a PA pass to the halfback Greene. Royster is listed as questionable and has not played yet.

haha just drew 2 straight encroachment penalties on the left end

I am able to sub in Royster if I want, but I'd rather him be nice and fresh for next week's game

yea around 9 works for me

8/18/2010 7:12:47 PM

wth, it 'warned' me about sportsmanship when i was up 28-0 in the 3rd and threw on 3rd down...then it subtracted 50 points later in the 3rd because I converted another 3rd down while up 35-0

i guess this is something new? might be my first time playing an NCAA game since the patch, I've been stuck on Madden

8/18/2010 7:26:44 PM

the sportsmanship doesnt really effect anything... I wonder how in the negative Ernie was with his eastern Michigan debacle

8/18/2010 7:32:12 PM

that mightve happened before the patch

anyway Penn State is going to kneel it and win 35-7

or run to the middle if thats what 'Ask Madden' suggests

lol

if we're not done by the time you have to go out of town, just xfer me the commissionership again

8/19/2010 3:11:32 PM

I was going to tell you just to keep it from last time but you were all too eager to give it back to me

Know your role bitch

8/19/2010 3:53:56 PM

i wonder if my eagerness to give it back had anything to do with the fact that i couldnt connect to play against Michigan, yet I had no problems connecting to anyone before I was commish

8/19/2010 4:15:06 PM

Slave transferred the commissioner role to me. Looks like most everyone is ready, so I'm going to advance in 10-15 minutes. Let me know if that's a problem.

8/19/2010 5:07:32 PM

I think you're joking, but I'm playing my game now. Should be done by 5:30.

8/19/2010 5:09:23 PM

Did we really advance? If so that's fucked up

8/19/2010 6:45:42 PM

Posting from 30000 feet....we'll advance when I return late Saturday

[Edited on August 19, 2010 at 7:13 PM. Reason : if you see me online its my Croation neighbor probably playing soccer]

8/19/2010 7:11:04 PM

Hey Slave, Tomislav is playing your NCAA dynasty

8/20/2010 10:20:34 PM

Shit froze on me up 28-0

Let me restart and whoop Purdues ass again and we'll move on

8/22/2010 11:09:58 AM

Advance!

8/22/2010 1:49:00 PM

Penn State at Ohio State is the only user game this week

Go TT

8/22/2010 2:31:00 PM

Tressel and Paterno agree to play this afternoon

haha I asked a recruit what he thought about Fanbase and he's all like "why do I need fans. don't the dorms have air conditioning?"

8/22/2010 2:36:07 PM

Tree, I accepted your invite. Got to to the team select and it was ready to go. Tried inviting you, says you are waiting for opponent, and I can't select anything.

8/22/2010 3:00:12 PM

same type issue i was having with Michigan last week...let me reset my modem and router and see if that helps

8/22/2010 3:02:15 PM

Accepted the invited, I'm "Ready!"

8/22/2010 3:09:24 PM

its doing the same shit. i hear the 'click' when you accept the invite, but it still says waiting for opponent

lemme see if i can dig around and find out what the deal is, i never had this issue until last week

sweet, 360 just froze

[Edited on August 22, 2010 at 3:10 PM. Reason : .]

8/22/2010 3:09:33 PM

I'll reset my router too

Never had a problem before

8/22/2010 3:10:20 PM

in and "Ready!"

let me guess...your screen still shows "Waiting For Opponent"

oh shit looks like we're rollin!

[Edited on August 22, 2010 at 3:16 PM. Reason : nice]

8/22/2010 3:15:48 PM

woo

8/22/2010 3:16:20 PM

lol back to back interceptions

Buckeyes up 14-0 early in 2nd

[Edited on August 22, 2010 at 3:31 PM. Reason : .]

8/22/2010 3:19:55 PM

both starting QBs out for game

tOSU killing me 21-0

28-0

35-0

[Edited on August 22, 2010 at 3:53 PM. Reason : .]

8/22/2010 3:44:05 PM

i should quit on your faggot ass

wow i'm literally amazed that you knelt the ball once

your sportsmanship is fucking garbage, fuck you...i had no problem with you beating my ass for the first 3 quarters, but you took it too far

8/22/2010 4:05:56 PM

You had three timeouts, onside kicked twice, and went for it on fourth down in the first quarter down 7-0 from your own 29

I figured you were going to use those TOs.

I also couldn't mass sub, there was no option in the menu. That's why I paused like 10 times.

What are you talking about? I ran the ball almost every down from the time Pryor went down in the second until the end of the game. I passed the ball twice in the fourth, both on third an long

You got whooped fair and square

[Edited on August 22, 2010 at 4:13 PM. Reason : ]

8/22/2010 4:12:12 PM

i went for it on 4th and 1 because i had been able to run the ball

i onside kicked twice because i was down 28 in the 4th quarter, thats what you're supposed to do

what you're not supposed to do is break off 80 yard touchdowns in the 4th quarter when you're up 5 scores

Quote :

"5. Sportsmanship: a) No running up the score. For our purposes, defeating your opponent by 35 points or more is excessive. b) Stat padding will be frowned upon especially against another user controlled team. When up by more than 2 scores late in the game, take advantage of the new Chew Clock feature and run the ball. Avoid getting an extra score when you can just run the clock out by kneeling."

like i said, you whooped my ass fair and square for the first 3 quarters...then you just started playing like a bitch

lol

Did you want me to run out of bounds?

What you're supposed to do is stop me

I'm not going to kneel the ball with three minutes left

[Edited on August 22, 2010 at 4:15 PM. Reason : I started chewing the clock halfway through the third. Tried to mass sub in the third too]

8/22/2010 4:14:52 PM

i just figured when you're up 49-14 with 2 minutes left, you're not going to bounce a run outside for an 89 yard touchdown, especially against a human opponent...its piss poor sportsmanship, theres no arguing that

8/22/2010 4:17:54 PM

I didn't bounce it outside, it was designed outside. I called iso, you overloaded the hole I was going to run to, so I audibled out.

And, yeah, I took a picture of the no mass subs

8/22/2010 4:19:05 PM

Quote :

"you overloaded the hole I was going to run to, so I audibled out"

i played the inside run, which is what anyone up 49-14 with 2 minutes left wouldve called if they were playing with any kind of sportsmanship...i wasn't calling timeouts, because i was conceding defeat

i was just calling inside run defense late in the 4th because again, you're supposed to run it inside

8/22/2010 4:20:13 PM

Whatever man, that was probably my only outside run all game, I even ran it towards the boundary, it should have been easy to stop. I wasn't trying to go 89 yards, I was trying to avoid losing 5

Maybe you should run that HB screen 30 times a game

You obviously can't win when you only run it 20 times

8/22/2010 4:24:27 PM

Quote :

" I was trying to avoid losing 5"

yeah, that would've been pretty threatening to your 35 point lead

8/22/2010 4:25:48 PM

Is it in the rules that I'm supposed to roll over and let you get a few pity TDs when I'm up big?

8/22/2010 4:29:09 PM

yeah, you "let" me get a couple TDs

I guess you were hoping I'd see the mike blitzes and call audibles to my TE, right?

8/22/2010 4:30:24 PM

I'm not saying I let you get anything, I didn't

I'm saying should I have let you

That's what you seem to be implying by saying I shouldn't avoid running into the teeth of your D

8/22/2010 4:31:25 PM

no, you shouldnt try to let me do anything when you're on defense throughout the game, you just shouldnt run up the score late in the 4th...whats so hard to understand about that?

I figured you learned your lesson after the whole league berated you after the EMU game, but I gues not
