    Apparently so.

    My 1600 yard back just cracked 600 yards through 12 games.

    Hey, it could be worse.

    Your RB can stay healthy, while mine has missed half the season. I wonder just how many yards Jones would have now if he hadn't missed so much time.

    well, wrong term probably...it is really how they meld together with their rankings...putting a 1250 yard back behind a swiss cheese line in this game is actually worse than if you do it in the real NFL.




    For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.

    Re: Week 12 Peanut Gallery

    Guys you should really take this lightly. Look I hate what Dillon CAN'T do on the ground. But I simply make notes of what I need to improve in the off-season and go from there. I need to upgrade my line....fair enough.

    Give it another season before you up and quit. MBB's team hasnt won yet and he had a great lineup, and to be honest I think next season is going to be one of the top teams in the league.

    IMO my team hasn't lived up to its potential but I am having a lot of fun with this, hopefully you guys will stick around.

    We might as well start advertising our three open league spots now... it may take a while to find dedicated fillers..

    Yeah. Don't be so quick to give up, folks. I have a 3-9 team, and I'm not ready to quit.

    That was me venting again. I am not quitting, just frustrated. 3-9 is not exactly how I pictured my team at this point in the season.

    Re: Week 12 Peanut Gallery

    Trust me this season is a learning experience. We are learning what positions are key and next season should be a lot different. We were all rookies at this (except Eb) so there were going to be growing pains.

    Most weeks I can't find any rhyme or reason to it, at the end of the day it is a sim and isnt going to be 100% consistant/accurate. But its close.

    We need dedicated owners to keep this league in tact, so don't bail just yet.

    That makes two of us. There are some things my D does well, actually...preventing the opposing team from scoring just isn't one of them.

    my defense is not great but I have changed up some things to play to my strengths and hide weaknesses and my defence has been playing alot better lately

    Re: Week 12 Peanut Gallery

    How much do you think owning a copy of the game is helping you?
    "'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"

    "Eh, Phil. That's one I happen to agree with."

    Owning the game allows you to make more in depth changes to your gameplan. I really made one wholesale change to my overall stradegy. If everyone owned the game I would make week to week changes but I dont at this point, if I make the playoffs I will probably make weekely adjustments. Overall I think owning the game makes you understand how the sim plays but not a huge advantage if any against someone who does not own the game. I like having it because it gives me knowledge of how the game plays, therfore if I lose i lose and really can understand why

    I haven't made 1 change the whole year. Go figure.
