Sorvok tried to join the board, but apparently his membership is under review ;-).

Phatty-- tomorrow night looks okay for me; how about 8:30pm?

hey zanshin you mind pushing it back until later tonight?  forgot Georgetown plays at 7:30 and am supposed to be watching it with some people. 

can you do late night, like 11ish?

[Zanshin]

Can't do it, sorry to say. I'm an old dude and I have a 6:30 am conference call. Can shoot for tomorrow night at 8:30 or 9 if that works better for you.

so i'm obviously the weak link is this league lately but i'm gonna be away all weekend again.  i can definitely get the game in sunday, but if you guys can't wait, feel free to kick me from the league and i can just rejoin again for next week.  not fair to zanshin to just sim it, because that gives me an approximately 1000% better chance of winning.

[Zanshin]

I can probably do Sunday. Can we shoot for 8:30pm?

[Zanshin]

 are we on? I'm online now if you're around.

I got my ass kicked by the farging CPU tonight. I was playing against Green Bay, and no matter what I did, could not get the W. I started one game off with two straight kick returns, but Ryan Grant was unstoppable, trucking the likes of Seymour, Sanders, on and on. Also no matter what I did, I could get any pressure on Kurt Warner, although I did give him a concussion, which he later came back from. I'm not ashamed to admit it, I restarted the farging thing three times out of frustration. I finally gave up when on the last drive, down 21-17, I hit Shiancoe in the hands in the end zone with 11 seconds left. He farging dropped it. Next play I got hit by Umenorya and the game was over.

Some days Madden just makes you his bitch and there's not much you can do about it.

Fun game yesterday.  Thought for sure you were going to get that 2-pointer at the end.

Don't think I've ever played a game that close before.  Much more fun.

[Zanshin]

It was a good game...though it made we want to kill McNabb all the more. farger. Normally, I wouldn't have gone for two...but my bladder couldn't take OT. You drafted really well, btw. Pretty amazing collection of speed and talent running around out there.

thanks.  have adrian peterson and reggie bush as my 1-2 yet jamaal charles seemed to be in for half the game.  couldn't figure out a way to take him out.  thats what most of the pauses were for, to try and get that dick out of the game.
