Alright all, we're in Week 6 now. J-Man and I have a user-vs-user matchup, while McBoller and RavenRage92 play each other as well. Standard Wednesday deadline, as always. We're two weeks behind, but not too bad.

I had to sim because RavenRage92 hasn't been online in a few days, but his Pats remain undefeated against the CPU Broncos in the game, so everything turned out for the best.

You're going down! When are you good to play?

BTW, for people playing User-CPU matchups, supersim becomes very helpful when your up by a lot.

Fingers crossed, I should be good to play tomorrow night (Sunday) or Monday during the afternoon/evening, Tuesday night if absolutely necessary.

I'm flexible with it.

RavenRage92 hasnt been on the board for a week...what if I cant get ahold of him to set up the game?

Sorry for not being around lately ive been pretty busy. When is the best time for you McBoller?

[theFRANCHISE]

I'll reiterate, though, that there will be NO SIMMING of user-involved playoff games, no matter what. Unless the consent of the player is given or they've disappeared off the map for longer than a week, ALL playoff games WILL be played.

good deal.

[McBoller]

I almost forgot, tonight is MNF. Unless yur gonna be on after 1130,, i dunno.

[theFRANCHISE]

Because of slight delays in getting coordinated for these two user-vs-user match-ups, we're gonna push the extension to roughly Saturday or Sunday.

[RavenRage92]

McBoller, ill be on tonight around 9pm or so if you want to get our game in. I wont be around this weekend so we need to get it in sometime in the next two days.

[McBoller]

ugh,world series tonight...i'll put it on in the other room. I'll be on somewhere between 900 and 930, i'll look for ya.

[RavenRage92]

Its fine if you rather watch the world series, we can go for tomorrow if thats better

[RavenRage92]

No, that was not a good game. I seriously sucked it up. BTW, I dont normally go for it on 4th down that much, but in the beginning I was feeling like we were just swapping TDs back and forth and if I punted Id be giving away a TD(Im not very good on Defense) That INT for a TD was a gift though. I Meant to hit X to my wide open TE but my FAT thumb hit triangle...

I didnt expect to win anyways, Im not very good at Madden. I was just surprised by my 1st quarter. Three straight 60+ yd TD runs, lol. What the hell D did you call?

I forget what D i was calling but for some reason i always have trouble defending the run to the outside. The first quarter seemed like it would never end. haha

We need to play again...lol.

My game with J-Man was probably the most epic back-and-forth game I've ever played. At two points in the game, I was down by two possessions and still surged back to tie or take the lead. J-Man's Vikings won, 55-52 with a last-second field goal, which was set up by a ridiculous deflected catch...fine with the result, pissed about the catch, lol.

See, my best friend couldn't even figure him out, but I think I found a weakness........and not telling the rest of you because I wanna keep things interesting! lol.

We are now in Week 7, with half of us on a bye week. No user-vs-user matchups, so just play your games as usual, deadline is still Wednesday, etc.

As you can see (and from the message I sent later), I was playing J-Man for our league last night, but we'll have to play again sometime later.

I think I figured out a new way to mix up the playcalling against you, too.

Though, I'll admit, that was the most creative I've ever had to be with my aerial attack. Like, my money plays were almost essentially taken away from me in the first half, so I had to make more adjustments, as you saw with the hot routes. As for that scrambling TD by Flacco, consider that as payback for Brett Favre's questionable TD run up the gut.

I don't normally scramble though, as you can see. I'm too stubborn to get out of the pocket. But I think I noticed how I can run against you...I'll just have to test that theory out next time!

McBoller may be my first victim. [img]http://boards.baltimoreravens.com/public/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif[/img]

I would love to join if/when I finally get my PS3, assuming there are spots open at that time of course...

That Favre run was totally unintentional, I saw an opening and my receivers were covered. As for my two Percy Harvin kick returns, totally intentional.

Ironic that Chris Carr was closer to returning a kick all the way back for a TD than Lardarius Webb. Carr [i]would[/i] get tripped up at the three...

Damn straight your receivers were covered.

Your running backs...not so much, lol.

Well, even before AP and Chester Taylor both got knocked out of the game, they were tearing me up until I started to adjust my coverage a little. And even then, Ian Johnson did some damage to me when I didn't account for him.

Still mad about that deflected reception...I would've preferred to just have given up a big play straight up, lol.
