I wouldn't mind another round. With everyone dropping players for the drafts there is some talent out there if you look hard enough. If we go by records it isn't as hard to develop the order, point differential (wasn't that the first one?) makes it tough.

GG Skins

This has nothing to do with the Skins, I am just tired of
ing fumbling the ball all the god damn time. Cost me several times in this league now, coughed it up 3 times with Turner and 98 CAR in the NFC Title game in the JV League..ing coughed it up with Jacobs and 97 CAR in a crucial drive here. Between that and my own receivers throwing picks on each other that would have made any college basketball coach proud..that led to 2 INTs on 2 different passing routes. I am just about at wits end with this game.
That is not to say the Skins or any of my other opponents didnt deserve to win. They did. They aren't fumbling all the time. They aren't making more mistakes than me. This is not a rant to say I should have a better record, or the better player lost. The better player won in each of my losses. Because who knows what would have happened otherwise. I have no issues when I make stupid decisions (which happens all the time). Just getting tired of Maddening with me.
I know a good player makes his own luck and I am not a good player (obviously). So..
/end bitching anding moaning
Edit - Seriously, good game Skins. You made me completely one dimensional for the most part and really stuffed the run. That 97 yard drive in the first half was epic, great consistent running that really showed you have good control over the flow of a game.

CAG usually posts weekly deals on bundles, I would look here to see what stores are offering and make your decision based off that. I bought a 4gb slim with Kinect and then bought a 320gb hard drive off a member here for 70 bucks new with Lego starwars III. The install of the hard drive takes 2 seconds. I also just purchased gunstringer and fruit ninja for 9.99 off ebay. The guy sends you the codes via a message. Good deals, Good deals.
I do not want a fa period. I like trying to adjust my roster to accommodate injuries.

I actually went out and bought a used 360 from Game Stop, with the plan to just slap my old hard drive on it. It was only $160 with tax. So I go home ,and they sold me one that already had red rings!
So, I'm just gonna hit another Game Stop today, but that happening makes me a little uncomfortable about the used X-Boxs. But it's half price and my Hard Drive will still be beast.

Why do you say that?
I mean I personally hate the place, but they seem to have quite the Monopoly out here in Vegas. And atleast I can return it if it doesn't work.
And yea Staticz, I learned that one the hard way, I'll test the next one in the store.
No Doom, it was an older Model so I could put my old Hard Drive on it. They don't even sell used old X-Box's with Hard Drives, you have to buy those on top of the 160 for the X-Box.

Gamestop is the worst retailer on the planet. Rip off central and every store I walk into just smacks me in the face with a disgusting odor. Do you have a university .edu email address?
If you do, you can sign up for amazon student which gives you free 2 day shipping for a whole year. Way better than gamestop and no tax.
BTW, you can buy a new slim and use your old hard drive in it. I have an old 120 gb hard drive that I'm using in my slim. You just have to take the plastic casing off. It's quite simple.

You can put an old hard drive on a new slim model too. Look at youtube for a video on how to install. Gamestop sucks, stop buying used and buy a new slim 4gb and save up for a new 320gb hard drive....$70 new microsoft product from a member on this forum.

Wow, those dickbags at GameStop didn't even tell me that putting my old hard drive on a slim was an option.
That's probably what I'll do. I have an 120 like you Doom. Hopefully "Quite Simple" for you means theres a possibility that I could pull it off.

That's because you're not supposed to do it. They're not going to recommend anything which involves taking apart the machine (which may well void the warranty, depending on what you do). I know the process Doom is talking about, and while it's indeed not that complicated, it is a manual process. It's not something I would do.

No warranty to the xbox will be voided. The hard drive warranty will, but by this point it's expired anyway. Microsoft surely wouldn't help.
No chance I'd ever spend money on a transfer kit in addition to a new xbox. \
Gamestop and Microsoft can eat me.

Remaining Games:
Vikings-Packers
Chiefs-Browns (today)
Falcons-Panthers (going down now)
49ers-Saints
Chargers-Broncos
Raiders-Colts
Any updates on the rest of these games (I may have missed something) would be appreciated. As ubernes said earlier, we're only going to push this into tomorrow if we have scheduled games (that means you've posted it in the thread too!). So if you can't play tonight, make sure you have firm plans for tomorrow, ideally before noon. Otherwise we'll advance tonight.

This has nothing to do with the Skins, I am just tired ofing fumbling the ball all the god damn time. Cost me several times in this league now, coughed it up 3 times with Turner and 98 CAR in the NFC Title game in the JV League..ing coughed it up with Jacobs and 97 CAR in a crucial drive here. Between that and my own receivers throwing picks on each other that would have made any college basketball coach proud..that led to 2 INTs on 2 different passing routes. I am just about at wits end with this game.

Denver's horrific season continues as they fall to a woeful 3-8 on the season. Much earlier, the prospects for the season seemed better when they valiantly fought and lost closely to league juggernaut KC and defeating Cleveland to reach 2-2. After that, though, the bye week stifled the momentum of the team and they've lost 6 out of their last 7. While their first set of three losses were competitive, the win over the Bills was the last game that was positive for the Denver faithful. Following the benching of prodigal son Tim Tebow, the organization was hopeful Kyle Orton would play more like Tebow did earlier in the season. Unfortunately, in a theme that Broncos fans are sick of, the Denver QB had a sub-50 completion percentage and threw six picks.
--
Not much to say. I don't feel like I did that poorly with Orton, but mailman intercepted every off-target pass, it felt like. I don't know what to do, I feel like I've hit a wall, and I'm t best stagnant and at worst regressing. Like, I started off 5-1 in the JV League and finished 9-8. Ugh.
