I moved my bike for this season. Be afraid.

What better way to start off the new season than with a kickoff returned for a TD?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdkYYaylvx8

How about another kickoff returned for a TD?

And a pick 6 to cap it off.

Not shown: any of Gardner's 5 rushing TDs.

Yeah, it was just Army, but I'm having fun with making highlights.

Michigan (you have my consent to put 200 on Bama)

Well, I held them to 3 points, I think that works too.

Michigan over Bama, 17-3. 4 sacks (all from DT Pipkins) and 2 INTs. Last play of the game was a 4th and 10 from the 1 yard line by Bama. I wanted that safety so bad!

Probably a long shot - but I am online this morning and may be available over the next hour or two. Going to hop in the shower now though, away for 20-30 minutes.

Otherwise, we should probably plan for tomorrow night or Wednesday night - I've got two games with ZSB and I'd like to knock those out tonight if possible.

edit - I'll be hanging around here a bit longer this morning. Let me know if you'll be able to play.

Michigan falls to Penn State, 28-38.

Really good back-and-forth game, looked like it wouldn't get decided until the end, but then Gardner lost two fumbles to end the last two Michigan drives. Only turnovers of the game.

Hayes adds another return TD to make it 3 for the season and Beyer gets to 8 sacks.

Yeah, if you were playing games fine before, then it does seem unusual that the wiring in your building suddenly went bad enough to affect your gaming (but presumably not your general web browsing?).

I had the same type of issue with Time Warner, they blamed it on my building, but it turned out it was a problem with their equipment in the area. Do you know anyone else in your building who is having similar problems?

Try these two sites:

What results do you get?

I think when he says Channel 1, he means the channels for the cable modem - not the router / WiFi. DOCSIS poo poo. I don't know THAT much about it, I just know when my internet was poo poo I had noticed I was missing a channel in my cable modem's status page.

Just like your router has an admin page (usually 192.168.1.1), your cable modem should have one exposed as well. It's probably 192.168.100.1. This will let you view the channels for the modem and determine which ones are missing or are having troubles.

I assume they tried giving you a new cable modem, right? I went ahead and bought my own cable modem, it's much better than the one I had with Time Warner (plus, they had me on one of their lovely modem+router combos, which I bridged to my actual router, but that was annoying because apparently they don't support you doing that). Buying your own modem won't magically fix the issues (it's possible I suppose!), but it may handle the lovely connection better. Not sure what cable company you're with, but I've already recouped the cost of the modem I bought since I pay 6-7 bucks less a month on my bill.

Unless you aren't a direct customer of the cable company, you should just keep calling them though. You're paying them for a service that they aren't providing. And like I said, my cable company also kept insisting the problem was with the wiring in my building.

John Brown posted:

Cletus and I duked it out and he was a big play or two away from winning. He led going into half time by 4 pts, but only scored a FG in the second half. Although the both of us made some errand throws that resulted in a couple of picks, I feel like my guys dropped a lot more. One play that stands out in particular was when you threw to your TE across the middle and I read it perfectly. Pretty much 2 of the 3 deflections I had were pretty easy picks. Regardless, you made some good calls but your passing really failed you. That stop I made after you picked me off the second time was HUGE.

Nebraska over Michigan 27-17.

Yeah, great game man! I think I should have been able to get you, but the pressure got to me in the second half for sure. This Michigan team is really good. Unfortunately for me you didn't let those two interceptions get you down.

Kicking off the second half with that huge pass only to get held to a field goal - that was where I felt my game broke down. And that second pick where you stopped me right after, I think that was the one where I had that insane punt putting you on your 1 yard line - letting you get that huge pass out of there was a heartbreaker!

And I was a little intimidated - I would normally have tried scrambling more with Gardner on passing plays, but after two fumbles cost me the game against Penn St, I think I only scrambled on one or two plays against you. I still just need to learn to throw the ball away!

Alright Dio, this is it! When is good for you?

I MAY be able to play tonight or tomorrow night. I'm afraid I won't be able to commit ahead of time right now, the wife and I are planning her birthday trip for this weekend and I don't want to rock the boat too hard. An early morning game is something I could probably commit to, though, if you'd want to try that.

Worst case, we'll have to play after I get back from our weekend trip.

Otherwise, we can wait for sure. I can just PM you if I have any definite free time before though just to see if you are available. This is one of the two games I look forward to most in this dynasty.

The Piper posted:

good game, Cletus.

A dropped 3rd down conversion before halftime and a foolish INT while rolling out when I should have thrown the ball away will haunt me. I gotta play near perfect when I'm trying to beat an A team with a B team and I certainly didn't do that. Also, Cletus figured out he could run the ball for 8 YPC every down in the 2nd half and that was a problem... That 3rd and 17 QB scramble was a real kick in the pants, too. You used to be all run and option but you've turned into a very smart passer, Cletus.

Good game! Yeah, that dropped pass was a killer. Would have been a very different game, and what a simple pass for the game to decide it would get dropped.

This was my first game without Gardner as QB this season, so I really didn't want to put Morris to the test with a lot of option plays - he's a redshirt freshman if you can believe that after this game. So I was more cautious than usual with my passing plays, I think I only had one pass I really shouldn't have thrown. Luckily my HB is no slouch (he was just playing in Gardner's shadow all season), and you're right about me figuring out the running game in the 2nd half.

Not to add insult to injury, but here's the QB scramble that pretty much sealed the game. I would have had to kick a FG otherwise with too much time still on the board.

I probably would have done better against you if he had already been injured heading into our game.

Also, pretty sure I didn't have Gardner last season either. He is always one play away from injury. The way I use him as a crutch doesn't help that of course!

GG ZSB!

Ohio State had the lead the whole time, but it was looking good for Michigan up until an untimely pick 6 in the 3rd quarter. Almost got a safety off of it, he made the pick and got carried into the end zone, but was able to break away and made a monster return for the TD.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HS8T0BRt2ec

Bad throw on my part but drat that was so close to a safety. Amazing return there.

After that, it was a bit of a comedy of errors for me. More picks, a fumble.. Ouch.

Yeah this was a tight game up till the end of the 3rd and then I scored twice in the last minute to put me up 49-21 which basically ended the game on turnovers. Team will play for TITLES.

BTW you totally jacked my guy Hayes from breaking the all-time single season return TD record. He's currently tied for it with 5 return TDs, and you stopped him like 3 yards short from getting the 6th. I don't know if the game keeps track of that record (I know I looked up the all-time single season record on an actual CFB stats website) though.

Recruiting seems to have gone much better for me this season. I'm excited to see the upcoming team.
