Hm...We'll have to play it by ear. By the way, I don't think I've ever whiffed on tackles harder.

Ok. I'm on my way home. Look for me in the next 30mins or so.

Sorry man I fell asleep on the couch! I'd say we could start now but my landlord is on his way over. I am just going to set myself to AP so you can play this since my availability is not great the next few days

John Brown

No worries. This is probably the first time ever we haven't been able to play so it's overdue really.

I say we let the EA sim gods decide our fate.

E: I'm around until 11pm CT regardless.

I'm real disappointed we didn't get to follow through on that loving shootout we started before my internet flaked. Looking forward to our matchups in other leagues, but really endeared to playing NCSU after so many years

Well it what it is. Lost to Dio in a sim while giving up 2 picks and 6 sacks.

Week 7 Games:

#4 UNC (Sly) @ #25 Pitt (Dubious)
#10 Miami (JB) @ #7 FSU (Piper)

CPU Games:
NCSU
BC
SCe
VT

Byes:

Piper, it feels like it's been a long time since we've played a meaningful game. Any chance you can play tonight?

Miami over FSU 31-10.

It was a defensive struggle up until the final minute of the first half. The run game really came through for me, and protection wasn't too bad.

I'm not going to raise a huge stink about it but I feel a little cheated that Dio gets a sim win over JB and I had to take my beating. If I beat Dio in 2 weeks and I still don't make the ACC title game I'll be unhappy.

Consider this: we tried to play like 6-7 times. On top of that Dio was a huge annoyance when we finally made it through a first half (he was only down by a handful of points). I felt that since he and I both tried multiple times to play our game, and since it was such a close contest, that he deserved a sim. If anything I'm screwed at any chance of a BCSNC because that was my one loss that I could usually afford. Now I have no choice but to beat he who owns me annually.

I would've been fine taking my lumps and letting JB whoop on the CPU but he was a gentleman and let it go to the sim unfortunately. When our game disconnected it was 30-28 going into the 3rd and then we weren't able to link up again to try again.

Yeah I understand the reasons for the sim. It's just that my matchup with Dio has decided our division every year and if it didn't this year, that would be a shame. Especially considering this is my last season in this dynasty. Although, the way I played in last years ACC title game and the fact that Dio's team is rated higher than mine now probably means that he deserves the ACC title game this year.

It doesn't have to be if you did recruiting. You'd probably end up with the best class.

Hey, sorry. Been busy and sick the last few days. I'm probably gonna drop this dynasty, i have too many leagues going on with madden out now and commishing two leagues there, with 3 here, is just too much football and i'm not very invested in this one.

That, and a midnight game time is a no go for me tonight.

No worries. I'm impressed you managed five at all with a fiance. If you want to give it a try I can go most of tomorrow but it'd have to be before 230pm eastern.

Well I'm glad I got that against the computer as EA seemed intent on not letting me move the ball on offense. Ended up benching Gibson the inaccurate little poo poo.
