CAG League Sports: Madden 12 "JV League" - We Finished 3 Seasons! Thanks Everybody!!!

[quote name='CAGLeagueSports']Sorry, must have missed that post. Just seemed like there was a lot of subbing going on lately. Proceed.

The Chargers, Colts, and Ravens are all open.[/QUOTE]

No worries, I miss stuff all the time.

And I'll officially take the Chargers as my secondary team if you want to through it on the op.
 
[quote name='campbellbj1']I can take the Ravens as a secondary if no one else wants them and I already subbed for them so that loss should be mine anyway.[/QUOTE]

This works for me! Thanks for stepping up and taking those teams, guys. I'm glad people are warming up to the idea of secondary teams. I know it was kinda like "Whaaaa???" at first, but it makes things feel a little more organized even though we don't have 32 members.
 
[quote name='Yanksfan']I told LV I couldn't do Monday night after he had to cancel Sunday night due to a bad disc.[/QUOTE]


I'm buying a new disc today.

I actually pm'ed you about playing Jets vs. Giants tonight. Did you get it?

Otherwise, Staticz stepped up to sub as the Jets and we should be able to play tonight.

Yea, I thought it was only right to take a secondary team, it just makes everything so much easier if everyone has one and I'm glad to be back playing in the AFC West regularly.
 
LV - on my phone, so haven't seen it yet. I am fine with staticz subbing. Already have a game scheduled for the other league, so I should be good for my madden fix. I was so amped to play Sunday, that when it didn't work for us, I played a random dude..and quickly remembered why I stopped doing that. :(

Hahaha, I hear you. I played a ranked match yesterday and after my first offensive drive he is screaming into the microphone, talking all this shit, and even kept messaging me after the game. Talking all this smack about Mike Vick (I was playing with the Eagles at the time).

Who in the world has the time do stuff like that?
 
Just a bunch of ignorant losers that have no interest in playing anything that resembles actual football. What you experienced is why I don't even play with a mic (that and my son keeps breaking mine).

You misunderstood me. I had no mic plugged in, I was not talking. I ran down the field with Vick and my speakers explode with this guy talking.

It's actually pretty stupid that you can hear your opponent through the tv speakers if you don't have your mic plugged in. But I usually just plug the mic in and mute it at that point.
 
Vikings 31 bears 23
Vikes up 3 scores with less than a 3 minutes left before doc puts up a valiant come back attempt even snagging an onside kick

Good game Doc I look forward to the rematch.

Make me offers!
 
Yeah AP broke a couple big runs and I got a few key turnovers but very fun game all in all I can't wait till next week lol

Not sure of proper format but Donovan Mcnabb is on the Vikings trading block on my phone but I will update the ovr and pot when I can probably tomorrow
 
Dude, X Matt Young X, did you just rage quit?

Bengals 26
Steelers 7

In a torrential downpour, Pittsburgh turned the ball over six times in its loss to rival Cincinnati. We were late in the fourth quarter, and I was able to sack Ben Roethlisberger for a safety. After that, the game froze, and X Matt Young X disappeared from Xbox Live.

The game counted, so the final score was 26-7.

GG Matt Young. Don't know what happened to you ...
 
Remaining games

Eagles vs Redskins
Seahawks vs Panthers

Haven't heard any word on either of these, and to be honest, all 3 members involved here seem to have been slacking lately. Just a friendly reminder, the "3 absences and no playoffs" policy is in effect this season. I was just thinking about it, and rather than calling it "3 sims", I think 3 absences is more reasonable.

For instance, if one of the Seahawks/Panthers owners has to ask for a sub because their opponent is MIA, and then they lose to that sub, it's not really fair that the original owner would get a free ride to the playoffs thanks to other people filling in (if neither of them takes the time to post in the thread or ask for a sub, they both get a strike though).

Obviously, arranged subs don't count toward this (and neither do secondary team subs), as in if you're going to be away and you let us know, it's fine. But I don't have the patience to deal with people just not showing up this season. As Yanksfan astutely noted in the official league thread "we're all busy". Hopefully, the games get played though and this won't even be an issue.
 
[quote name='Yanksfan']I agree with the new terminology as you laid out.

I also hope Matt Young didn't rage quit like that. That's his primary team.[/QUOTE]

Dude, our epic underdog rematch is in a few weeks! Texans/falcons! I'm tempted to use the flip cam to record it then post it! ...lol
 
Giants 10 - Jets 17

Thanks for subbing Staticz, I hope all those Newcomber fumbles were do to the heavy rain or else it's gonna be a long season.

Sorry. I must have missed all posts from Monday. I guess I was just surprised no attempt was made yesterday. But point taken (both from you and LV). Everybody's a big boy and knows the rules. You guys don't need to be harped on and the deadlines are clear. Just letting everybody know from here on out they'll be enforced strictly.
 
Alright. I would like to purpose that our weeks are three days long. Now, before you scream at me, let me explain. I understand that some have trouble meeting the deadline, but most don't. I think that if someone was having trouble getting a sub/contacting his opponent. He could ask for an extension. I just hate the idea of waiting around for games that will most likely be subbed. The whole process slows the league so much.

Anyway, let me know what you guys think?
Pitfall, are you around tomorrow for the (TENvJAC) game? I am around most of the day.
 
[quote name='damailman2272']anyone can sub for carolina tonight at 12 est i can play[/QUOTE]

I will be home at 12:15pm est so we can play then.

While I appreciate the sentiment, I just don't think I could enforce a 3 day turnaround with most people being responsible for 2 teams (not to mention people who are in both leagues). Doing this would basically open us up to having A LOT of games simmed...which I think would really turn people off. I don't even really think I could keep up with it.

As I've said many times though, we always have the option of advancing in 3 days...it just takes people wanting to make it happen. Get the games played and we'll advance. It's that simple. Superstar is right though about this first week feeling longer because of the draft. I didn't count the night of the draft as a day (even though some games were played that night). Hopefully the weeks will feel quicker as we get going again.

In regards to the Seattle vs Carolina game being played tonight, I guess I'll be advancing the league early tomorrow morning then (probably around 5 AM CST) when I get up to feed my daughter. I'm exhausted, and will be in bed by the time that game finishes. Shouldn't make much difference though, advancing at 5 AM as opposed to midnight. The Week 2 deadline will still be 2/26.
 
I can see both sides, but as mentioned, it could be difficult sometimes with 2 games each. I think 4 days is currently working and hopefully it won't contribute to anyone getting so bored that they quit the league.
 
Panthers vs Seahawks going down shortly

Also Williams and Stewart are on the trade block Im looking for CBs and LBs
