APF2k8 - Legends League S1 - Week 3

GO Irish!

Schize. Severe T-Storms. I'll be a tad late slumber.

That's okay... but in that case, do you mind if we push it to the weekend? I just got word that the fiancee will be home an hour early, and I try my darndest not to play online football when she's home. She hates it, and I can't really blame her.

Get home safe!

I can do the weekend. Whenever works best for you.

Cool, thanks for understanding. Possibilities for me include late tonight, tomorrow evening, Sunday evening, and maybe all of Monday, unless a barbecue pops up. We're busy setting up the room for a new HD projector, which I really can't wait to see APF on.

Good game Frankie'. Good talking with ya and such. Another O. Anderson night (I thought I just had one of those:>) Your 'no-name' defensive backfield did a number on me. Block after block passes. And hit me so hard on several the ball was knocked loose. Plus my offensive line just couldn't keep Too Tall Jones and his crew from planting more 'Moon flowers' ...to a total of about 7 sacks!

7 Sacks? Eee. Next season you may want to rethink your commitment to Moon.

Or else provide him with better protection.

I've got Moon as well and I've already thought about my commitment to him for next season....straight to the bench.

Yep, Moon is on my 'retirement' roster. But I have to correct my enthusiasm. It was 'only' 5 sacks. But I had a bunch of calls go against me that even had frankie' shaking his head (face mask, personal fouls, pass interference etc.) What was really a laugher and neither of us had seen this before is that my guy (CB I believe,) 'tackled', yes tackled a receiver before the ball had got to him(!!). (I'm going to check the pill supplements for the team and make sure no 'boosters' were included. My guys were beserkers last night (except where it counted...my offensive line)).

Kush and I got our game in...very close. I was up 21-10 with about two minutes left, but he managed to score a TD, a 2-point converstion, convert an on-side kick, then score another TD. Stupid Theisman went from having a QB rating of 0 near the half to really doing well by the end of the game.

Nice game, Kush. Felt close the whole way.

Firesloth, good game, managed to pull that last 2 mins out of my a$$. Sorry about the Irish though, that was rough. I drank a lot of Tequila that night to ease the pain.

So only 1 game left to play this week? And it's Jayhawker again? Is your system still dead, Jayhawker?

Pred and I still haven't played.

I'm good for either later tonight or tomorrow evening, Pred.

Tonight works perfectly for me. Again, let's say 9:00?

I'll be there. Promise!

So it's you guys AND Jayhawker and his opponent?

I'm Jayhawker's opponent, and posted early in the "week." Haven't heard from him. I'm assuming his box be broke.

If Pred and Slum get their game played tonight and DS gets the league moved forward a week I'll be up late and could play my game for week 4.

*edit*

Ah, Pred my week 4 opponent would be you. If DS's time/schedule allows the schedule to be moved forward would you be up for it?

I would be home at around 7pm PST, just for the record. I think last week, however, I was able to declare the winner of Jayhawker's game from the website. I'll have to check on that, though. So I could roll it, perhaps, as soon as I'm told to roll it. Although it would be nice to hear from Jayhawker first. Or at least know what's going on.

Pretty sure he sent his 360 in. He posted in one of these threads and said he called them about it. He hasn't popped back up with a newly bought 360 yet so I'd been assuming he was waiting for his broken system to come back.

Well, we can sure as hell try.

Me and Slumberland are done. As an aside, can you change logos in-season? Because I'd like to make my team better represent the '91 Colts.

My team's mediocre. I've just had a lot of good luck so far. For instance: I've only broken one run for more than probably 15 yards and it happened in overtime against Bean to get me the winning touchdown. Any other time in the game I mostly got smashed when I tried to run the ball.

Another fun stat: at least four of my interceptions have occurred when my opponent is inside the 20. It's supid how many times I've narrowly avoided opponent scores because I just plain got lucky.

After more time with the game I really don't like the team I'm using in the league. I have two others I've put together since we started that I enjoy much more. One of which is an entirely different style team than the one I have now.

One of my failed experiments was using every single star player on offense and just hoping my generics could get the occasional stop on defense. Looking at the field when I had the ball was hilarious. But it's also just about impossible to cover a couple of star rated receivers with a defensive backfield full of nobodies. They always got through.
