Madden 10 League-OFFICIAL CAG LEAGUE (Tournament)- LOTS OF TEAMS AVAILABLE!

Yeah, Raiders owner, I guess you missed the 5 pages where we talked about not signing FA until week four. That and the waiver wire we set up.
 
RAIDERS, DROP THE FREE AGENTS YOU PICKED UP. Actually I think I can do it, but I'd much rather he does it.
I can't connect to ItlnStln. I fooled around with my router and I'm about to try again.
 
[quote name='Azumangaman']PLAY YOUR GAMES. I'm gonna be pissed if I have to sim a bunch this week...
Anyway, itlnstln, wherever you are, I'm going to try to be on XBL as much as I can tonight.[/QUOTE]

Colts vs Dolphins game is being played tomorrow night.

moonknight and i were trying to play...its dropped twice ea servers r garbage.

the first one was interesting he was up 17-14 in the fourth when i was driving.
the second one i kinda picked up on his play style it was alot more ugly of a game to say the least
i was up 28-7 though end of the 3rd and of course it dropped AGAIN. moonknight say he just gonna sim it to the end so well c. its very frustrating anyways i still feel bad we couldnt finish some bullsh*t dude. anyways it was fun moon. u have been one of my more tough matches online period gg
 
Good game chopsuey, the first game was a good close game with you driving down 3. The second game i had prob 5 picks lol. I played the comp in the tail end of the 3rd and the entire 4th quarter. Final score 31-7, glad you saw that i didn't quit on you on that first drop.
 
Jesus. I got raped. 27-0.

I couldn't do anything right this game. These are the games where I go and drown my sorrows in Cheez-Its and Diet Coke.
 
Yes I do. You are next in line for when somebody drops.
If you see that I don't play my game this week, its because ItlnStln and I can't connect. He opened some ports and I DMZ'd so we will try (hopefully) again before the deadline.
Looks like a bunch of you are going to play Monday, which is good.
I've seen just about everyone make contact in this thread, which is great.
 
gg seen. sorry i wasn't very chatty, felt i needed to talk to my friend who i barged in on to use his xbox, haha. lots of picks in the game and pretty much it was just a couple big plays that decided it.
 
Steel Curtain returns at Soldier Field

PITTSBURGH (AP) -- After losing the first game of the season on a last minute field goal the defending Super Bowl champs looked to get back on track in this Sunday night game. The name of the game throughout the contest was defense. “We just played Steeler football. All of our players know their roles and we just were able to execute when we needed to tonight. I know people like to see shootouts, but defense wins championships.” Said Big Ben after his defense held the Chicago Bears to a total of 88 offensive yards and no scores. Veteran linebacker James Farrior had 2 Interceptions, giving him 4 total for this season.

In the first half it seemed like no one could hold onto the football, with 4 total fumbles, 3 by backs and one on a kickoff return. Instead of breakout second year player Matt Forte being the difference maker, it turned out veteran “Fast” Willie Parker was indeed the catapult for Pittsburghs offense.

Parker managed to score early on with a 44 yd TD scamper in the first quarter, a 94 yd screen pass from Big Ben in the 2nd, and finally on a 5 yd reception in the 4th. “After last year, everyone thinks of us as a pass first team. Hopefully tonight shows that we still have a potent ground game. When your O-line provides the blocking, you just have to take advantage and find those holes in the defense” And find those holes he did – Parker ended the game with 239 all purpose yards.

When asked about the Bears new look coach Mike Tomlin had this to say “With a new QB to the system, obviously it’s going to take some time for everyone to get on the same page. If he can do the things he did in Denver they will be just fine. We were just the better team tonight”


Key Player stats:

Ben Roethlisburger: 9/10 168 yards 2 TDs/0 INTs
Jay Cutler: 11/24 110 yards 0TD/3 INTs

Willie Parker: 120 yards rushing / 119 yards receiving 3 TDs
Matt Forte: 4 yards rushing / 21 yards receiving

Greg Olson: 41 yards receiving
 
First trade in CAG Maddden League

Today the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have agreed in principle to send future hall of fame CB Ronde Barber to the Tennessee Titans in exchange for WR Nate Washington and a 2010 2nd round pick.

Barber, in his 14th season in the NFL wanted to be part of a contending team meanwhile the Buccaneers in midst of a total rebuild wanted to get younger. This was a perfect fit for both sides. Nate Washington, who signed a big free agent deal this off-season to join the Titans was surprised by the move but was also excited about playing for his new team.

"I know the situation is going to be different down there, I mean, I'm going from a contender to a franchise rebuilding but I gotta make do with what I got. I'm just going to prove what the Titans just missed out on", said Washington.

Barber, a bit emotional during his interview had this to say about the trade, "Tampa Bay will always be my home and I will always give back to the community regardless of where my professional career is taking me. I owe everything to the franchise and I can not thank them enough for giving me the opportunity to play for a contender."

The Titans no doubt will be favorites for the Superbowl. Adding Barber to shore up a mediocre defensive back situation will be huge for them. As for the Buccaneers this will be no doubt one of many more moves in the right direction in rebuilding this franchise from the ground up. Nate Washington has shown plenty of promise and could very well surprise alot of people this season.
 
Titans trade Washington.

The Tennessee Titans have agree with a deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to trade newly signed Nate Washington in exchange for Ronde Barber and a 2nd round 2010 draft pick.

Ronde Barber who became the first NFL Cornerback to record 20 sacks and 20 INT in his stellar career with the Buccs gave one simply reason for the team switch, "I want another ring." Barber at 34 years old is staring retirement in face and looking to add to his legacy with a team contending for the championship.

"Its not secret that we are a run first team," stated Coach Jeff Fisher. "Don't get me wrong Nate is a stellar WR and will go on to have a long career but right now he is our 4th string and when you get a chance to sign a first ballet Hall of Famer its hard to past that deal up." Barber is joining and already top 10 defense and should be able to easily step in and contribute.

Nate Washington who recorded 631 yards and 3 TD's for the Titans last year was very surprised at the news seen shaking his head stating, "I just signed a contract."

No doubt he will be playing with a chip on his shoulder for the rest of the season.
 
Speaking of the trading block, Mathias Kiwanuka is officially available. If you need help D-line, he's your man. He can line up on either side as an 85 rated defensive end as an excellent pass rusher that will generate pressure and sacks.

He's incredibly versatile too. He can move to the inside as a DT and he is still rated as an 80 at defensive tackle. You can even move him to the OLB positions and he'll still be a respectable 75.

In return I'm looking for help at WR or either safety position.
 
[quote name='Soodmeg']Nice recap. Now waiting on my 200,000 dollar check JDMxB![/QUOTE]

As soon as my Nigerian partners come through with MY check, yours will be in the mail haha!
 
Lyric and I are trying to get something worked out, but its looking like our schedules are pretty conflicting the next 2 days. He is on when I'm either at work or sleeping. Hopefully he is around tomorrow evening as that will probably be our only chance.
 
I'm free the rest of today. If I got to post a game time then say 5 pacific. Post here if it works for you or you need a later time/date, I'll keep a lookout on this thread.

I can play now if you want, but that will probably make you miss like a few minutes of the beginning of the ravens game. If not then yeah, 10 e is good.

edit: probably too late now. See you at 10 e.
 
If you signed any free agents you MUST drop them. Then again, I thought that was somebody else that did that.
ItlnStln and I tried to connect again but no dice. We're going to try tomorrow one last time.
Also, soodmeg and I played an excellent game. Not sure why I used the Panthers, but I was soooooo close to winning. I also blocked an extra point, which was wild.
 
Sorry about that Grand Cru I got you mixed up with someone else. There are so many new CAG in the league.

Yeah Azu that was a good game, that pick six that you had was mind numbing. I saw Gamble before I hiked it, I also was watching him come up to jump the pass, I then continued to toss it anyway and watched him run it into the end zone.

Ugh, I cant find a good blitz package like I had last year. I can stop most passing outright but I miss getting 4 or 5 sacks a game.
 
ooo its straight soodmeg, i thought we all were supposed to drop a player to free agency or something for a second , lol i was lost hey majic u wanna play right now
 
ramesuthe1,

I can't remember if I sent something on here or Live, but either way I'll be available tomorrow late afternoon and all evening if you would want to play and should probably be around Wednesday too.
 
Haven't been able to connect with my next opponent — bfauble83. I'll try again tomorrow but if not, should I go ahead and play against the CPU?
 
Ultimate Matt x, the deadline to advance is tommorow so thats cool, I will be on when I get home around 5 or 6 est...hope to get our game in. I just missed u, tonite i get on 30 mins after u got off...sucks but i hope we can get this one done tommorow for sure.
 
@lyric, you mean you can't connect in game, or he doesn't respond to anything you say? If its the can't connect, then I'll just sim if attempts are unsuccessful.

Following games haven't been played:
Vikings vs. Lions (we've tried multiple times to connect and are trying again tomorrow)
Bengals vs. Packers (haven't heard anything)
Rams vs. Redskins (connection issues?)
Seahawks vs. 49ers (not sure)
Buccaneers vs. Bills (haven't heard anything)
Browns vs. Broncos (playing tomorrow)

Hopefully these games will get done, because I'll be advancing Tuesday at 11:59...

But who cares about the league, I'M GOING TO THE CLEVELAND BROWNS/MINNESOTA VIKINGS GAME! How scary are the fans in Cleveland?
 
WEEK 2

Colts-14
Dolphins-24

Dolphins win the game by trying to keep Peyton Manning and the Colts offense off the field as much as possible. Also Pat White gets his first win as a NFL QB and keeps two scoring drives alive with his running ability.
 
Not connection issues. I offered a few times over the last few days, but he couldn't do them. He said he could do it tonight before 11, but when I signed on, I didn't see him there. He mentioned tomorrow night as well, so hopefully that will work out.
 
Played a fun game against Mr Grand Cru (Panthers). First half was all offense and the second was all defense. Looking forward to playing him again in the season.

Panthers - 41
Falcons - 30
 
hey great game majic, if it wasnt for that pick gamble got i believe u would have won this one, this was definetly a shoot out ,...lol i need to definetly improve my special teams also ive given up a kick return every game ,...lol
