Good game last night Kodos... I gave it all I had and just came up short... For some reason I just could not stop you on punt returns... Seems like I was out kicking my coverage everytime... Marion Killed me with the returns... (one huge one and several other key 20-30 yarders...

It is hard to believe that Kodos has just now gotten his first win... We always seem to play each other very close... This time was no different... I think if I would have had the balls to stick with my running game early I could have managed a win... But I gave up on it too early...

Hey Chris and RainRaven, I might be able to play earlier tonight. I was supposed to work to 11 but I got off at 5. In fact, earlier might be better since I'm not working now the wife and I will probably go out and get drunk again. Just let me know.

Primelord,

Reorder roster pust the best rated players in the game. When you do this it changes the teams rating. For instance, the Raiders are like 82 and when you reorder they are ranked 86.

Primelord...

Sorry but I will be unable to play tonight as I had originally planned... I have to go to a friends house and help them with some heavy lifting... Sorry but I had no idea until tonight she needed help... If I get in late and still feel up to playing I will look for you on AIM...

We can try for Monday or Tuesday night...

Great game between myself and CoachTD7...had I been able to field an offense in the first half, I might have won.

Final:
Colts 24
Chargers 31


After Edge went down in the first, I was worried...but he came back after only a few plays. When he went down again early in the second, I was really worried...and that time, he didn't come back. Down a staggering 24-3 at the half, my boys weren't too happy going into the third quarter, especially with the Chargers getting the ball to start the half. But San Diego's running game never got going, and the Colts started a comeback. After 14 unanswered points, the Colts were sitting strong at 24-17...one more stop and the juggernaut that had become the Colts' passing game could attempt to even the score. But alas, a key Conway catch over the middle, and a huge counterplay by Tomlinson set up an eventual Tomlinson TD, and with just under 3 minutes to play, the Colts were down two scores.

At this point, our connections got screwed, so we started over with a single 3 minute quarter.

Immediately upon the start of the Colt drive, Manning goes down with back spasms, and all of a sudden things look REALLY bleak for the Colts. But a few key plays and the Colts were in business. Another touchdown, this with just under 2 minutes to play, and it was again a one score game. However, with no timeouts remaining, an onside kick was our only hope...but alas, the Madden gods kept my season just good enough to lose, and the Chargers were able to run out the clock. Great game, Coach.

Good game Vince. It was close and I was worried. Not only did James go out, but Conway was out for the 1st half and McNeil, my best cornerback, was out for the second half. What a nightmare game. Also, the lag was really bad. It didn't affect plays, but it froze parts of plays. It was like the Matrix. Lol. Good game.

Ok kodos, here's the plan: I already talked to Coach and he and I are slated to play at 9:15 PST on Thursday. My intramural basketball team is in our single elimination playoffs...if we win tomorrow at 6, we get to play again at 10. If we win there, we advance to the Semis on wednesday at 6. If we win THAT game, we advance to the final which is Thursday at 6. Hopefully we win out and retire in style (this is my team's last season all together before most of us graduate). I'd be available to play no matter what Wednesday after about 7:30 PST, but I'm reserving that as a study day, because I'm fairly swamped with schoolwork nowadays as well.

So, to make a long story short, I can play Thursday after I finish with Coach, but that would be pretty late for you (after 12 central, probably). Friday I'm open all day until 6 PST, then I'm at work all night. Let me know if you can play Friday, or even late Thursday...I'm looking forward to our rematch, sans a futilely hurdling Fiedler.

It just wasn't RainRaven's night tonight. We played our week 10 game earlier and it was 1 of those games where everything went my way and nothing went right for him. After jumping out to a 24-0 lead in the 2nd quarter, Rainraven scored 17 striaght to make it 24-17 in the 3rd, but then the momentum swung back to me and I scored a couple lucky TDs in the 4th to wrap it up. If RainRaven's offense had played the whole game like they did the 3rd quarter it would have been ugly for me.

GOOD GAME RainRaven !!!!!!

Skins- 41

Ok, possible snag, Kodos and Coach. I didn't realize, but our game on Thursday would be at 10 PST. Did you guys want to play earlier? I have no problem playing between 5-8:30 PST.

By the way, my IM team won both games tonight, and I'm really psyched about it One game away from the Championship, baby

I can play earlier. No problemo. Have you solved your lag problem yet? (You said something about trying a new setup, I think.)

And congrats on advancing in the IM playoffs. Nothing feels better than winning.

I haven't been able to figure out what my problem is...my connection always registers 4/5 or even 5/5 on the Madden server, and my connection is never intermittent. I don't understand why I always get ridiculous lag. Anyhow, it's been less lately (my game vs. Coach was much better than my game vs. Kodos), so hopefully it'll clear up.

Coach, you're on for 5 PM on Thursday...Kodos, you game for when we're done? Probably between 6-6:30 PST?

In a somewhat defensive struggle. The Patriots jumped out to a 6-0 lead on the Chargers, but the Chargers came back scoring 17 unanswered points despite two 50+ yard field goals missed. The Patriots then responded in the 4th quarter with two touchdowns one set up by Donald Hayes' double coverage catch on the one yard line. Making the score 18-17 because of 2 Patriots failed 2 point conversions. The Chargers got the ball with a minute left with one time out on their own 18, but two drop balls by an open Tim Dwight sealed the game for the Patriots along with 5 sacks and constant pressue on Brees. Good game Big DPW.

Patriots 18
Chargers 17

Ok, my team won again tonight (hell yeah!) on the strength of my 25 points We're in the championship tomorrow night for sure. Because of this, Kodos, I think I'm going to have to cancel our game...I hate to do that now after I scheduled it, but my roommates would kill me if I didn't get there early to warm up.

Sorry JoeGibbsjr I thought we were playing at 9:30pst from your earlier post you said you could play after 11:30pm est. Miscommunication on both our parts I guess Anyhow I can try and get a game in earlier but I won't know until a little later so I'll try and post and let you know bud. Sorry about the miscommunication. Talk to you later.
