I heard there is no offline franchise mode where you can control more than one team in Madden 13. Can someone with the game confirm? Also, if there is an online franchise mode can you control more than one team on the same X-Box?

Spain complains more than any team in the history of sports.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 11:13 PM) Orlando got literally nothing. Afflalo, Harrington, Vucevic, and 3 protected first round picks. All these three teams will be good, they won't even get any where close to a lottery pick. Their new GM needs to be fired on the spot. This is absolutely horrific. If they got Gasol, I'd understand. But this is just sad. I'll ask again. Why the f*** would you not just take Bynum and then hope to sign him? It isn't like Bynum would have very many other options next year. I would rather have told Dwight to f*** off, not traded him this offseason and then not agree to sign and trade him next year unless it was for a legitimately good package and see what he does.

I am officially rooting for the Heat this season (unless the Thunder knock the Lakers off in the playoffs). The Heat are a much more likeable team than the Lakers, which is pretty crazy. Also, Orlando's GM did a terrible job this offseason. They turned down better deals than what they ended up getting. Why the f*** would you not just take Bynum in return? It isn't like he would have many other options next season as far as signing an extension.

Errol Spence is back in the tournament, the result of his fight was overturned. When your sport has had multiple results overturned in the same Olympics, there is something seriously wrong with your judging.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Aug 3, 2012 -> 06:04 PM) Wasn't there also a guy that was on the mat 6 times in one round, then won that round and the fight? Yes (but the result was overturned), it is pretty incredible that Olympic boxing is significantly more corrupt than professional boxing.

Olympic boxing is an absolute joke. Errol Spence from the USA just absolutely dominated the Indian fighter he fought today yet somehow the judges give the fight to the Indian fighter. Insanely corrupt sport and the judges in the Olympics seemingly award fighters for running away rather than engaging.

What a stupid f***ing tiebreaker. Basically whoever has the lowest score on a routine wins if there is a tie? That makes no damn sense.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 31, 2012 -> 04:45 PM) Krush. Quit being an ass. Your double post was completely unnecessary. The rules were pretty clearly stated. You should add the rule to the thread title so people know the rule without reading through the thread.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 29, 2012 -> 10:36 AM) Does anyone know where I can stream olympics for free? This is not for me but rather for a Tv-less friend. NBC is streaming everything on their site if you sign up.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jul 29, 2012 -> 12:35 PM) Tony Parker is also far better than anyone the 92 team faced. Far better than Drazen Petrovic? Not a chance.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 21, 2012 -> 01:28 AM) I like Moore and I wanted the bulls to draft him. Maybe could be a very poor mans Wade. His game isn't anything like Wade's. Moore relies on his jumper to score, he wasn't even able to get to the basket on a consistent basis at the college level.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Jul 19, 2012 -> 11:14 AM) Nash/Kobe/MWP/Gasol/Howard would be sick! Hopefully they win the next 2 championships then old age hits them and its the Bulls turn to win a couple. I would legitimately be rooting for the Heat if they meet in the finals if the Lakers land Howard.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 18, 2012 -> 10:57 PM) Or a PF or a C or a SF. Doesn't really matter the position. The bench mob stuff was overblown. The Kings had the original bench mob in the early 2000s with Hedo, Bobby Jackson, Scott Pollard and some other guys I'm forgetting about. You know what the Lakers had? Shaq and Kobe. End of story. The Bulls organization is a joke until proven otherwise. Bad example. That Kings team would have won a championship if Game 6 against the Lakers hadn't been rigged by the refs.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 18, 2012 -> 02:42 PM) Bird and Magic were lucky enough to be drafted by teams with all time greats on it already though, and they both added to it. LBJ could have waited for that to happen but clearly he was a little short changed compared to them. MJ however was drafted to dogs*** (somewhat) and pieces were added to him. LeBron was there for 7 years and there was no indication they were ever going to acquire the pieces necessary to win a championship.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 13, 2012 -> 02:23 PM) I get the notion that the Bulls feel like they have invested so much time into him, that they don't want to see him blossum somewhere else, but it just doesn't make sense to me, especially with Taj coming up for a contract. They are just downright stupid if they think he is ever going to blossom on the offensive end and that is the reason they are keeping him. When you are 26 years old, can't catch, have no post moves, and have no touch whatsoever you are never going to be competent on the offensive end of the court.

QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Jul 8, 2012 -> 04:38 PM) Notice that their relievers are throwing strikes. That's the difference today. No they aren't. The balls they are throwing are just being called strikes.

Best trade ever.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 7, 2012 -> 03:49 PM) That's because nearly every LHP is a bad match-up for the Sox. The splits for a majority of our hitter are significantly worse against LHP. And nearly all of our hitters have decided to play into his hands by dramatically expanding their strike zones so far today.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 10:36 AM) Leonard will either be great or a complete bust. And the black guy quote is dead on. He's way more athletic and mobile than your average white stiff. He should have went higher than Drummond. His measurements were about the same as Tyson Chandler's at the combine and he actually has very good touch for a big man. Leonard has tremendous upside, it is just a matter of whether he will put in the work required to be great.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Jun 27, 2012 -> 08:03 AM) It would be nice to see Dunn with a day off. Maybe Youkilis at first and Konerko DH? Or Danks in LF and Dayan at DH? Give Dunn the day off against Sabathia this weekend. Nick Blackburn is absolutely terrible, maybe he can help Dunn get on a hot streak again.

Orlando Hudson is ridiculously awful. Looks like he got somewhat bailed out by some bad D though.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 20, 2012 -> 03:10 PM) John Salley took a big s*** on Michael Jordan on ESPN today. Said MJ doesn't make his top 5 best players, implies that MJ would not have been successful if he didn't have Phil Jackson coaching him, declares Magic Johnson far and away the GOAT John Salley shouldn't be allowed to talk basketball anymore.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 19, 2012 -> 11:28 PM) I've thought about that a lot since enjoying the Dream Team doc. Then I got sad thinking about a special kid from Chicago who can GO UPSTAIRS not participating. It should be awesome, though. What really sucks for Rose is that it appears that basketball in the next Olympics will likely be limited to players 23 and under so Rose wouldn't be eligible unless they adopt a plan similar to soccer where you can augment your roster with a player or 2 above the age of 23.

A little OT, but is anyone else incredibly excited to see LeBron and Durant on the same team this summer? Should be fun to watch.
