I leave for Italy on thursday. Will be back in town on the 21st. If you can try to minimize the games i miss great, but do what you have to do.

I updated the advance to 7am Tuesday morning. Cene hasn't played his game yet and I sent him a text message giving him until 7am. This way the LSU/Bama game can be played before Bama goes on vacation.

What the hell happened?

What was the final score? I haven't even seen it yet.
Basically, just to get this thing out of the way we start at like 11:15. Now realize, for me to even have a chance, I have to score on pretty much every one of my possessions, or get some stops/turnovers.
It's going good. 3 possessions, 3 TDs (14-7 Bama). Then on the ensuing kickoff my guy fumbles. Extra possession, short field -> 21-7 Bama. Nothing pisses me off more about this game than random fumbles. (I'm of the opinion that the games are just too short, and random fumbles shouldn't even exist in the game. It puts the fumbler at too great a disadvantage, for something that wasn't their fault.)
Soooo... I'm thinking about throwing my controller through my TV, but I calm myself and continue. I go 4 and out (good D, no argument). He then scores again -> 28-7 Bama. I'm a little upset about the fumble still, but I realize I'm done for and stand no chance, but I keep playing, because it's the right thing to do.
Two plays later, my QB randomly fumbles, Bama recovers. This is late in the second quarter I believe. Of course I get the kind of anger only a video game can get out of me, and since I had to be up at 6:30 in the morning, just quit and let him finish it out by doing whatever he wanted to my team while I was sleeping with my LCD in tact.
Cliffsnotes -> Random fumbling is teh gay.
Disclaimer: I'm not taking anything away from Bama guy. 90% he beats me fumble or no fumble, but it pretty much blows to know that I didn't even have a shot because of basically what amounts to a coin flip (fumble/no fumble).

Yeah, I think the game should only fumble if it's a hit stick hit that causes it.

He told me to put him on autopilot. You can play the CPU.

Advanced to week 12. Next advance Tuesday 6/16 @ 7:00am.

Guys, I hate to say it, but the more and more I read about 2010, I don't think I am going to waste my money. Now they have come out with the ability to buy (literal $$$) "boosts" to your online dynasty team. That means if you need another piepline state, buy it. If you need your homefield advantage to be greater, buy it. If you need an advisor in recruiting, buy one. That completely ruins the legitimacy of the whole thing.

I'm hoping there will be a way to disable that for online dynasties. If not, a gentlemen's agreement will have to suffice.
And I'll still be getting it for my birthday like I do every year. Don't be a pussy, you've wasted $60 on worse things.
