Will drop Winslow immediately so the Rams can get him, and will find another FA.

EDIT:

Team: Seattle Seahawks
Sign: E.J. Henderson MLB
Re-Sign: Evan Moore, TE (Cut him for Winslow earlier, re-signing for roster spot)
Release: Heath Farwell MLB
Release: TE Kellen Winslow (for Rams to pick up)

Taking a hurry up with three timeouts while up four TDs is against the rules, I'm sorry if that offends you.

That's not how networks work. I believe you'll find this helpful:

I don't have a mic... my Kinect might have picked audio up, but trust me if I had a mic I would have used it.

How do you just sign a player without having that waiting period? Do you offer more money?

Not surprised that the website and the game would function completely differently, lol. In the game, they tell you exactly what they want, you make the offer, and it's accepted instantly.

Wow...you worked pretty hard for that one.

Good man. Glad that's taken care of. No harm, no foul.

Ehh...I'm not sure that I'd say it's "against the rules". It only being the 1st half being the difference maker. I'd definitely call it extremely aggressive...and like I said, I probably wouldn't do it. But with an entire half of football left to play, there shouldn't be an expectation to run out the clock yet...even in the 3rd quarter, it's an "at your own discretion" thing. In a closer game, using a hurry up there would be an obvious call. With that big of a lead...it's aggressive, for sure. But the game definitely isn't "in the bag" at that point.

cbrigante was supposed to PM me about a time he could play, but I haven't heard back from him.

Seahawks defeat Rams 34-14. All seahawks points were in the first half.

Game by the numbers was pretty close, except for the 5-0 turnover ratio in favor of me. Rams had some very rough turnovers early (one after another after another if I remember correctly) that gave me the 17-0/24-0 lead pretty early. For the 'legit' drives not off of turnovers we were pretty even.

GG lyric. Sorry about the Winslow snafu again, I'll be sure to read the list closer next time.

As an aside, I was up 24-7 at the end of the half, and ran on two straight plays with about 50-60 secs left. Rams took a time out after the second run play. I took this as a sign that they'd take a TO on the next play too, so I passed, got to mid-field, and decided to pass the rest of the drive, ultimately ending in a TD. Felt a little dickish doing hurryup at that point but it just ended up playing out that way. It was a 17 point difference at the time, so it wasn't a complete blowout.

Deadline is going to be extended a day due to free agency taking longer than I planned. If you want to try again with him tomorrow, that's cool. If you still can't get the game scheduled, let me know and I'll put him on auto pilot.

GG. Man, I don't think I've ever had three INTs in three passes before. I really, REALLY suck at this game.

Didn't think you were playing dickish at all there at the end of the half. I wanted the ball back —$and foolishly thought I had the skill to do so. However, I do question a little your attempting a pass on third and long in the fourth when you were up by 20 points, but the ball just bounced off your wide-open receiver's hands. So, I'll chalk that up to the Madden gods not wanting you to play that way!

Also, Cardinals owner: If everything goes as planned, I will be moving to a new home on Saturday and won't have Internet until Monday at the earliest. There is a possibility you may have to play the CPU.

Nationality puns are always good for brevity and lightening the mood; you guys are welcome.

I know, I know. I missed everyone too

Oh, stop. Jamaican me crazy.

Also, I did Czech, and there appears to be Norway to send invites from the website.

Browns sign LT Chad Clifton.

I'll post who I'm releasing as soon as I get home later today.

Texans Jets scheduled our game this evening at 8CST (did it last night). Do you think we will advance by then N8?

I don't understand this deadline extension. Is it a deadline as in today the eleventh is the last time to play games, and we will advance in the morning, or was today the deadline and we will be advancing this afternoon?

Colts release Chandler Harnish(qb) and sign Roy Williams(wr)
