I love the game of football. I've played the game since I was a child all though high school. After school I played in ultra competative flag football leagues and even played a year of Semi-pro. I tried out for an Arena League 2 team while I was stationed in Hawaii. I wasn't good enough so I moved on to coaching. That is the second time I fell in love with football. There is something incredible about teaching your passion to the next generation and watching the exact details that you instructed ... Read More

Following three comfortable home games, the Rebels travel to New Orleans to face Tulane. This game Ole Miss struggled as they were clearly looking ahead to their first SEC game against the Crimson Tide, in Tuscaloosa.

Here is the video from game three of my Dynasty. Ole Miss hosted the #17 Texas Longhorns. This was a pretty good game.
Tied something new and split the game up by halves. Allowed me a bathroom break and quicker upload times for me.

Not sure how long this one is gonna last, as I am more a Madden fan. But I will do this Dynasty video style with full game video. I started out with Ole Miss as the Head Coach, not sure of my goals, but I decided to let the CPU call the offense and I will handle the defense. This is the second game of the season, vs UTEP. I didn't alter the schedule at all year one. I am looking to provide stories as well, but this is all just starting.

I'm lucky enough to live in Maryland and be close to three stores that are willing to break street dates. As such I've been lucky enough to get my grubby little hands on Madden NFL 10. Thus far, this is a game that has me floored. I didn't buy last years madden, gave up of 08 rather quickly. As it stands the last madden that I really enjoyed was probably 05. Well as the title states the excitement is back! At least for this gamer. Playing a game of Madden to me feels like what I see on TV ... Read More

I was feeling really good coming off the Rockies game. My first win really put me in the right mindset that I can pitch and pitch well at the Major League level. I would need that confidence going froward. 3 of my next 4 starts were going to be against NL East teams. (Philies, Braves and Mets.) I was also looking forward to a game against the team that drafted me then traded me the Brewers! Shaping up to be a very interesting month.

You guys will have to pardon me. I usually do 2 or 3 games to an update. This is a one game special update. I pitched the best game of my RTTS, or any other MLB 09 or 08 for that matter game. The only game that tops this is my No-Hitter in MVP 05 way back when. So if you are a rookie pitcher in the National League East and you are struggling to keep the ball in the park, have an AM radio station for an ERA (8.10) and your team is 2.5 games out of first and you play in the same ...

Well after 2 years of fine tunning my craft in AA and AAA. I got a spring invite from the Nationals and pitched well enough in the spring to not only make the big club, but was entrenched as the number 2 starter in the rotation. That was welcome news. I also got a nice little pay raise. My AAA contract was going to pay me about $129,000. Well now that I'm in the bigs I will be making $389,000. Still underpaid as a number 2 pitcher in MLB but I'm still 3 years away from arbitration so it's ... Read More

When we last left young Richard Robinson he was in the midst of a winning streak and seemed to have found his rythem following a rough run in the early part of the summer. His defense was behind him, the offense was putting up nice numbers. He had found a way to pitch to lefties with out the addition of a 5th pitch. Things were going Rich's way. Would his dominance continue or would he revert back to his up and downs ways?

What a month it's been! It all started when I decided that Dontrell Willis' pitching motion was to long and it kept me from being as accurate in hitting the mark as I needed to be. I went to go edit his motion (Thank You SCEA) looking for Roger Clemens' motion. (Say what you will about roids I'm 27 he was dominant growing up) Well it wasn't there so I settled on generic 18. Then I though about who else was a dominate RHP I watched growing up. Pedro Martinez. So I changed my glove color from ... Read More

So first my apologies. This update will only have two games not the usual 4. I had take an week off of work for the release of MLB 09. I do the same thing for NCAA usually. Well I'm back at work and that means I have a little less time during the day. But enough of that. Here is what you came for.
My 15th start was the worst start ever. How bad you ask. This bad. Lead off batter hits a one hopper to the short stop. He fields and promptly fires the ball over the first basemen's ... Read More

After a terrible stretch that saw Rich Robinson go 1-4 with a 5.13 ERA in May. I focused and decided that I needed to really pay attention to what I was doing on the bump. This isn't AA ball anymore and I want to make it to the show. Besides I'm pitching in that Nationals organization how hard could it be? With a new focus on handling lefties and a new drive to get my numbers respectable again we entered June.

Like the title says. May was a very difficult month for Rich Robinson and his quest to pitch in the big leagues. How bad was it. I didn't get a win in the month, not only not a win but I took 4 losses! That isn't a misprint I was 1-4 in the month of May. My ERA for the month of May was a large and ugly 5.18! Yeah, I couldn't get a break. The umps were squeezing me and I was getting blasted. I think I gave up 4 or 5 homeruns. It also doesn't help that the offense has pretty much left me ... Read More

Well after a hot start I have returned to my normal level of up and down performances. Again it seems that I am going to keep struggling against lefties. They are currently hitting a touch over .300 against me. But that isn't how things started. I was able to get to 3-0 by beating the Iron Pigs again. I was able to help my self in this one with the stick. I was also able to go 7 strong only giving up 2 earned runs and K'ing 5.

Well I've bounced back from the dejection of not getting an invite to spring training with the big club, but I used that as motivation to get to the show this year. My first start was a productive one. Went 7 strong innings giving up 7 hits and 1 earned run. Felt good to get the first win of the season in my first start and it was a quality start. So far so good. Next start will be against those pesky Iron Pigs.
