Hey, 49ers, are you around? If not, do you want to play after The Walking Dead?

Good game, Fender. Taking two weeks off clearly didn't make me any better at defense.

GG, Thomas Platinum. Christ I loving suck at defense. Fun fact: opposing QBs are now 21/21 with a 158.3 rating against my secondary.

If I want to move a player to a different position, do I just edit them or is that something you can only do during the offseason?

Half of those user games are against me and my performance against Dubs has gotten worse rather than better. Between trying get a podcast off the ground and various other projects, I just have too many things going on right now to playing any way other than casually.

God knows I could have done one for the NCAA dynasty last year. I feel like I would have to actually be good at this to do a Madden podcast. We have done a few rough draft episodes, but none to the point where we have mass distributed yet. Whenever ChemicalWarfare stops flaking out at the last minute (which has been happening a lot these days as you saw with his stint as the Raiders here) and we actually do Episode #1, I'll link it here. I'll warning you that if you don't ever go into Punchsport Pagoda, it probably won't be your thing.

GG, Goob. The only reason I was able to climb back in was because I got in a situation where I could go no-huddle, but oh the things this offense can do when I'm allowed to do so.

I'm really digging my rookie QB. I didn't start him the first few games because his accuracy stats weren't great at the time, but the kid can let them rip. Jamie McLaurin will be a household name if he stays healthy.

Wrestling With Marks-ism - Episode 1: The Ultimate Debut

Zarikov and I were high school friends and former roommates in college. While I have been a wrestling fan since 1998, Zarikov has just within the past year caught Wrestle Fever. The overall inspiration for this podcast was to address the stigma that surrounds being a wrestling fan. I'm sure many of us have had "The Wrestling Conversation" at some point when, for example, dating someone new. Of course, somewhere along the way either by way of intoxication or exhaustion, most episodes will probably degenerate into dick jokes with names of wrestlers thrown into the punch line. Join me as I stammer my way through introducing Zarikov to this crazy world we all know and love.

In our debut episode, Zarikov and I reflect on his first Wrestlemania Weekend, discuss our upcoming wrestling adventures, Chuck E. Cheese, wrestling shitheads, drugs, and probably say some really offensive things yet still expect you, the listener, to take us seriously as well-adjusted adults. Honestly, I think we had better showings some of the test runs, we already had someone gently caress up our debut episode last week and it was either time to poo poo or get off the pot. Not to mention that I had slept well all week.



Approval is pending on the iTunes store right now, but here is the RRS feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/WrestlingWithMarks-ism

If I need to upload to an additional host, I will, but I figure that tindeck cover all our bases.




Are we trying to advance today? Most of time has went into getting this ready since the last advance.

EY, you are better than you give yourself credit for. If you had RG3 still I'd have been toast.

GG. A lot of blown chances on my part. I'm a lot better when I'm allowed to go no-huddle. That same thing happened against Goob: I think I was down 28 - 0 to the Bengals lady season before I went no-huddle. The two most frustrating plays had to be the return TD whereJackson ran by the entire kicking team and the TD to Megatron where I manualled the safety to double up on him.

When are we you planning on advancing? I am recording for my podcast again tonight, but I can probably get it in before since I have a lot of the prep work done. If we aren't planning on advancing tonight, I'll probably just hold off until tomorrow. Bottom line, due to all the AP guys, I am actually likely to make the playoffs, so I would hate to take a sim loss.

Yeah, I'm done for the year. I just haven't had a chance to sign in and retire. I doubt I am getting a PS4 for a few years and with the death of the NCAA Football franchise, I probably won't be in this subforum that much anymore. It was fun though!
