I'd like to get beat down as the Los Angeles Rams. If some other goon has dibs on the Rams, I'll take a team that only has one other player in the division.

The Rams as I grew up with them in Orange County and they are (mostly) back where they belong.

With Madden, I'm actually cool with switching teams as I want to try a new scheme and the bronco's 3-4 works better for it.

How 'bout the Moo-cows from Houston? They claimed yet?

Woo a rival! Texans are gonna be dope

I'm not sure how much of a rivalry I can provide as the last time I can honestly say I was any good at this game was when it was on PC and Ray Lewis was on the cover.

In the game, do the old school Oiler uniforms fall under the Titans or the Texans?

The cheesing clause is next to impossible to break. It literally has to be purposeful exploitation of the game in a pubbie manner

I'm assuming this is mostly directed towards things like the multi step blitzes that abuse the o-line AI or that route swapping thing from a few years back that abused coverage AI. What about changing positions or playing players out of position?

This is the one weekend where I'm going to have limited availability and I don't believe Goob has even joined the league yet. I can play tomorrow night, and then only (maybe) late night PST until I get home on Tuesday evening. How are situations like this handled?

I saw the carcas of the Bucs/Niners/Redacteds being picked over by others and thought it was cool to trade for their players. Soon as I realized that the Bills weren't an ai team, I fessed up. Traded a first and third for Gilmore.Mock away, make me play as the Bucs, or what have you.

I'm usually home by 6pm. I do have a game to play with Dave and as he's EST, I'm going to try to get that game done first. Figure 7:30-8 for our game?

Out of curiousity, what tiebreaker does the texans have over me?

Comes down to record vs. common opponents. I lost to the Patriots, who you didn't play, we both lost to the Titans and we split our two games. Only one that matters in this case is our games against the Vikings, which I won (simmed as Dubious wasn't able to play) and you lost.

Thanks, Dubious!
