CAG Madden 11 League 2 - Season 2! Week 10 Deadline Sat night. TEAMS OPEN!

[quote name='Matt Young']To clarify, there were no private messages nor XBL messages in the plural sense. I received one PM on CAG which was sent yesterday, and he sent me one Xbox Live message at noon Eastern time today. So he definitely wasn't making multiple attempts to reach me and I just wasn't responding. I just wanted to clear that up. I ended up being busy yesterday, but I had been on Sunday before leaving for the night and then just got on today at 2:15 P.M. my time.

I'm writing back to him now. I can play today. He did mention in his CAG PM that he wanted to play last night: "Hey man I work 9-6 mon thru fri central time. So I would like to knock it out tonight if all possible." but he mentioned nothing about not being available today, and in fact said in his XBL message this morning that he could play today after 6 P.M. Central time. I messaged him back just a moment ago.[/QUOTE]

All that is true just a missunderstanding but I could have swore last night I seen you on and I sent a pm, msg, and invite. Maybe there was someone else on your profile but I could have swore I sent all of that so when got no reponse I took that as neglect. So this morning sent a msg again and asked about if you were around. But thats all taken care of and the game is on. Lol So ill see ya in like 30 to 45 mins
 
Red worm posted he cant play tonight to redo our game. Red Worm, we can play it tomorrow night if you want. If not, someone can sub or I will play the cpu like he posted a little while ago.
 
Normally I would say get a sub, but since the first game was played into the 4th quarter and there was a decent lead for the Dolphins a CPU game isn't out of line.

That said, given that red is in my division it's not fair for me to decide on this, which is why we have a co-commish. Ubernes, could you decide this one?
 
I say let him play the CPU unless he wants to play a sub and we can find someone with a similar record (using this league or last league's season) to fill in. Like you said, Dolphins had a decent lead and red doesn't mind.
 
I would play another person if someone wanted a sub. Or I will play cpu, just let me know, I can play later tonight.
 
You decide Munchie. If red's fine with it, you can take the option of a CPU game (which won't disconnect) or a sub. No one will judge you, I've already had two cpu games myself after disconnects.
 
Matt, Dead Prez is on the way home he just left work a little late. Will take about 15 minutes but just letting you know he's on the way.
 
[quote name='theredworm']Just don't hurt my boys[/QUOTE]

Yeah, this goes for everyone (I'm pretty sure I actually put it in my disconnect rules). If you're playing a CPU game, you're obviously going to win, so do lay off the hit stick. If you happen to injure a key player on the other team, it's permissible and even encouraged to restart the game (I did this several times against the Cowboys since Tony Romo is apparently made out of cinnamon bark :D).

red - Can you leave the franchise yourself (I'm pretty sure you can do it through the website) or do you need me to get on and boot you? If you can, that would be better since it saves me the effort and also means I don't need to send you an invite back.
 
The Dolphins have defeated the Packers, 28-25. The Packers had a touchdown as time ran down to make it interesting, but the Dolphins returned 2 picks for tds in the game sealing the victory in the fourth quarter.

And my boys are all healthy and happy right?
 
[quote name='Deuce20602']BigAt... would u be able to play tomorrow evening after we advance?[/QUOTE]

Probably, it likely depends on what time we advance.
 
Looks to me like Lions-Giants is the only game left.. Given that we will be advancing no later than when I get home from work (probably around 5:30 EST). That said, if both parties happened to be awake and could get this played tonight, I will advance us in the morning.

i am going to try and get off work early tomm. so we can play this it will be around 9 est tho i will post tomm. if i can if not i say just sim it or have someone sub for me(as long as they can get me rookie of the week:D)
 
According to a glance at his profile, Lexxon is on right now. If you guys could see your way clear to playing this tonight, you would have the thanks of a grateful commish.
 
[quote name='theredworm']well tanabeo is around here tonight (lions) have they pmed each other at all?[/QUOTE]

we have we just cant set in a time he gets off before i get home and im at work when he plays, i can let worm or cheesy sub for me if need be.
 
[quote name='bvharris']According to a glance at his profile, Lexxon is on right now. If you guys could see your way clear to playing this tonight, you would have the thanks of a grateful commish.[/QUOTE]

it says to me that he has been offline for 6 hours
 
I just PMed him as well, I'm hoping it could get played right now. Honestly, I would be fine with simming it if your schedules just don't line up, but obviously you'd both have to be okay with it.
 
We might have just missed him.. I need to head to bed, can you guys let me know before the morning whether A) we're simming it (in which case I'll advance us in the AM) or B) you have a set time (I think this needs to be before 5PM EST, we're not going to hold up the whole league for one game).

I'm up waaaaaaaay too late, so I'll keep this short:

Crazy, rainy mess of a game. My O was dreadful, or your D was excellent, or a combination of the two. You deserved that game but just couldn't shut the door. I thought with :10 you should have kicked the FG at the end of the first half, and in the end that may have won it for you if I was still dumb enough to get safetied...

Very defensive game. Not sure if the time of night affected my play but it was just an odd game all around. It opened with the Lions dropping the opening kickoff, but getting it back after a challenge, and although I was one yard short of an offensive TD, my only TD of the game came on the Boley INT return.

I must have seen 4 Giants go off on a cart during that game, but the franchise site only says Phillips (AGAIN, he just came back!) is out for 2 wks with broken ribs, and Aaron Ross is out 11(!) with a fractured foot. Ugh. I suppose it could have been worse though.

I was on my way to bed when I saw the PMs come through. For future reference for anyone that plays me, I am generally NOT on XBL until you shoot me a PM. I'm usually on the computer or another console, although rarely I'll actually be on XBL before a game. I am rarely up this late and it was luck and a late WoW Heroic that made me get the message at all.

Anyways, I'm going to be in Boston for the weekend starting Thursday morn, all the way through Saturday, so assuming I'm playing next week, it'd be best for me to play sometime tomorrow.
 
We have advanced. Week 7 deadline will be Sunday night (pushed back a day because of New Years). We advanced early this time, let's try to do it again.

I'll write up all the usual stuff a bit later from the office.

Yes, Tanabeo, Best won rookie of the week.
 
One thing I will point out from the players of the week:

Chris Johnson (TEN)
Rushing: 30 yards, 0 tds
Receiving: 193 yards, 3 tds

Jahvid Best (DET)
Rushing: 62 yards, 0 tds
Receiving: 200 yards, 1 tds

Running backs are for running, people. It's right there in the name. :fridge:
 
[quote name='itlnstln']BV - I am available after 6pmEST today if you have time to play our game(Bears/Skins) - let me know.[/QUOTE]

I do indeed. Let's say 6:30, but it's possible I'll get on sooner. Let's hope last week's preview of my D wasn't too helpful for you. Oh, and now I'm more mad at you for injuring Johnny Knox since you're my next opponent. ;)
 
after taking down the once undefeated Texans, and the 49ers, the Raiders look to deal division rival Denver it's first loss of the season... #2 corner Chris Johnson made his return to the lineup last week so he should be up to speed this week, giving or secondary a huge boost

Let's go Raiders...lmao, I need you to win. We can deal with each other later on. I need BigAt to stumble in our division first....

Uber, did you get my PM earlier...my control panel doesn't indicate that I've sent any messages recently. In case you didn't it was in reference to my availability tonight from 6 est until whenever tonight just let me know when/if you can play tonight.

Can we push it back to later tonight actually? My girlfriend just got a raise and we're going to an early dinner to celebrate.

I'll touch base with you once I get home, but let's shoot for around 9PM EST?

[quote name='Tanabeo']now how am i suppost to get rookie of the week when im on a bye =([/QUOTE]

Which is more important to you each week, getting the win or getting rookie of the week? :D
 
[quote name='bvharris']Which is more important to you each week, getting the win or getting rookie of the week? :D[/QUOTE]

rookie of the week =) i cant even win out and make the playoffs so this keeps me going for something for the rest of the year. I want suh to get D rookie player of the week at least once(i was thinking i was gettiing this week with 2 tak. and 1 sack for a safety)
 
[quote name='theredworm']azu when is a good time for you to get our game in

I'm going out to watch True Grit around 7pm cst so I could possibly play later[/QUOTE]
I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing today, but I'm seeing The Kings Speech at about 9:30pm EST, so I could probably play after midnight est or during the day today but something may come up.
 
As a reminder, our trade deadline will be the end of Week 8. I'll probably do another FA period in Week 9. I was going to do another one earlier, but the need doesn't seem there since injuries seem down overall, there have been some key ones but only the Ravens look to have been truly decimated. We'll probably do two more overall though.
