QUOTE (BobDylan @ Oct 8, 2009 -> 03:29 AM) Also, the commish needs to override my trade for that CB. I cant override any trades. You have to propose the opposite.

Simmed. Im on bye this week so hopefully this goes fast.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Oct 6, 2009 -> 09:02 PM) I meant see if there are wildcat pitch plays. I didnt really look at it because I didnt think you could pitch so thought it was stupid. I tried a ton of plays to finally find one where the hook and ladder worked. If you want to try the one I settled on its in the NO playbook, singleback, y trips, saints seams, hot route TE to an out and rb on a drag (right stick down) I dont think theres any designed pitch plays.

Whats the hold up with this game?

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Oct 6, 2009 -> 07:56 PM) Nice. And during the break I can practice pitching. I dont ever play NCAA so im not that great with it. good luck. That play was the fluke of flukes.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 6, 2009 -> 04:12 PM) Either the Steelers are just damn good, or the difficulty is adjusting. Really? The toughest team I have faced so far was Green Bay. Pitt didnt seem too great to me, just had a really good run defense.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Oct 6, 2009 -> 03:10 PM) How do you pitch? I thought only NCAA had the pitch option. L2

On another note. Ive implemented the hook and ladder. I did this in a game online and got a td on my first try. The guy quit immediately after.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 6, 2009 -> 12:56 PM) WHOA WHOA WHOA HOLD THE PHONE The following trade is retarded Bears get MARIO f***IN WILLIAMS (95) 25 years old. Chiefs get Will Smith (84) 29 years old Eddie Royal (82) Will Smith is 29 and s***ty, there's no way a team would deal a beast like Mario Williams! Ya, that was what I used to test to see if they would let trades go through that were lop sided but not insane like AP for Garrett Wolfe and I didnt notice it went through because we waited so long for the last sim. I already have the reverse proposed because this week is my bye week. I didnt even notice it went through until I saw Eddie Royal was gone during my last game. He didnt even play and got 1 tackle on special teams.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Oct 6, 2009 -> 02:20 AM) did you have to reset the game and play twice? It actually tells you how many times each game was started. I dont know if I just see it or if everyone can.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 11:55 PM) HOLY s*** I WON. 31-24. One of the best games of Madden I've played yet. My week one game I was tied and Green Bay had the ball with about a minute left in the red zone so I let them score a td instead of setting up for a field goal and running the clock down and I ended up scoring as time expired and winning in overtime. Thats about as close as I want these games against the cpu. Buccs/Skins, you guys gonna get that game in today? First head to head game of the year. I feel bad for the Buccs, that team is brutal. Could you not see the rosters before you picked a team? I wouldnt mind letting you rape the cpu in a trade if nobody else minds.

My mom works for American Airlines and is working the Bulls charter plane home from London. She asked me which players she should ask for autographs and I had what could have been the greatest idea of all time but couldnt go through with it because it could have gotten her in trouble. I was going to tell her to go up to Derrick Rose and tell him that he is her sons favorite player and I have been following him since he was in High School and that he even went to the college I dreamed of going to but the reason I didnt was because I didnt do as good as he did on my ACTs.

fine with me

I thought we were just going with the people who didnt draft whole team got two and everyone else got one? The trades have to be proposed before the sim because thats when they go through. As of now any trades not proposed wont be reflected until week 5.

Im kind of surprised to hear people high on Stafford right now. His accuracy is brutal and if he didnt have CJ he would have numbers similar to Russell. He made a few plays but he also left a lot of points on the field by missing wide open targets. Even without any pressure from the defense. Im sure he will improve as he gains experience but he hasnt shown me anything to worry about as a Bears fan yet.

Im not sure which of you guys lost to the Lions but despite Big Bens 4 ints including one for a td i squeaked out a W 55-10. Offense was pretty balanced and former Olympic track star Michael Johnson added 10 more sacks to his resume giving him 17 through 4 games. Im on bye next week but the rest of you guys can finish your week 4 games.

This isnt as bad as when those pictures surfaced of Jay Leno pouring oil down the sewer in the book "Celebrity home....at night"

QUOTE (rangercal @ Oct 2, 2009 -> 12:16 AM) I don't see the big deal if DB,Matt and Steve all wanted to do one trade. It makes the season fun as long as it's not out of hand and within reason. I think the no trade rule was in effect by DB because of the complexity (draft picks and AI acceptance rate) . So I don't think anyone will be trading any punters for Tom Brady. lol My main concern was trading draft picks or trading older players for younger guys who are slightly lower rated but 10 years younger. Im assuming we will have to deal with cap penalties and everything as well so it should be interesting.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Oct 1, 2009 -> 10:26 PM) Palmer is rated higher than romo. Romo does fit my style of play though. Palmer is such a statue out there, but has a much stronger arm. regardless, it's 88-87. And the best player in the entire trade comes from my side, a defensive guy with a 98 rating who is under 30. After the AI selected my first few picks, this trade is all I really want, but if it is overwhelmingly opposed, then I'll look into another deal. I said I didnt oppose. I think its fair, I just dont like it because I know it helps you lol.

I personally dont like it because IMO Romo is a much better Madden QB than Palmer and overall the two defensive players being acquired are better than the ones leaving. I definitely wouldnt oppose it though. I was testing the AI and offered Royal and Will Smith for Mario Williams and it just says offer accepted and posted it in pending trades. So I think they let everyone review them before being accepted. Note, I didnt expect this trade to be accepted and dont have intentions on doing it, Im just testing it. So go online and see what it looks like.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Oct 1, 2009 -> 09:08 PM) I'm thinking about buying the game so can you add new players to this dynasty. The only reason I haven't bought it yet is because all my friends have it so I just play it there. This would give me more reason to buy it. I think its a hell of an idea

QUOTE (rangercal @ Oct 1, 2009 -> 06:38 PM) How do we find the draft results? I am looking, I dont think we can. Any ideas for a solution? I am shopping Eddie Royal as well so I am curious what our best option is here. I think looking at a teams roster we can at least figure what round it was, but if youre talking swapping guys like Andre Johnson for Ed Reed it is going to be tricky knowing exactly where they went. Maybe post trades in here first and if nobody objects than go ahead with it.
