He'll be exposed this upcoming week. Though if he is undefeated by the time I fly out to New Jersey I'll take him out Charles Bronson style for the criminal that he is.

when are you going out to the east side?

Rookie QB Andy Finley got the start in Cleveland due to injury. The rook played pretty good. Pretty surprise by the outcome in our game with Wichita.

No surprises here. Two holding penalties at the same spot on the field took away certain points. Follow that up with some nice turnovers and by the time the first possession of the 2nd half was over so was the game. Maybe someday we will get a better look at the penalty engine of the game. I would love to know which jackass offensive line player (or other) is the guilty party on these critical holds. That seems to be a pretty important factor in the games (cost me some points) and we arent able to factor for it in our roster decisions.

Wichita: Single-Back formation, strength is left. The defense is in a 43 with nickel personnel and 4-deep zone coverage, keying aggressively on the pass.

when are you going out to the east side?

Mar 2-8. Check out the calender.

So much for putting 100 for double team top WR. I think every time CAL threw the ball to Mullin it was away from double coverage.

I hate this game.

please double team Mullin all the time. the 2 new WR's i picked up before the trade deadline would appreciate the targets.

Sante is pretty good. i'm loving this pickup.

Don't get too carried away now. He blew chunks against Louisiana.

Shhhh, HA has to have some way to make himself look like a genius.

[JesterBlaze]

If his rust wasn't so extreme it wouldn't be that bad. I would love to defend myself here and tell you to go f yourself but even I know this one is going to be a beating.

???

Jave, for the greatness of the league' sake: Go back to the Jack and Coke, please!!!

Punk'd again GG Phantoms

Thanks Vito. Good luck getting those Stallions back to form.

I really like Tom Dewit and feel he'll have a solid, if not great, career though I'm leaning towards "great".

I feel your pain. I am just focusing on setting up the future:



We will dominate once again!!!

I hear ya...



I'm looking forward to testing the idea that you "have to" have a down year at some point. Of course I most certainly "have to" understand FOF2k7 drafting a lot better before next off-season and Suicane's display of "No OLine = No sacks & no INT's"* is really fucking with me.


*The implication here being that I need to learn something - nothing towards Sui, FOF2K7 or anything else.

[JesterBlaze]

And as I look down to me feet I see some Bulldogs circling and nibbling... ahh yes... I remember these guys. Are they really back? Please say that it's so.

[SteveBsFan]

well defense showed up for me today, and offense didn't screw up as bad as last week. Still a lot to improve if I want to beat the crapinals next week though

I've been watching this phenomena too and I don't have an answer for it yet. The house of cards has to come down, I would think.

[Matt]

I've always been a huge fan of Sante. It was very hard for me to trade him, but I understood that I need to replenish at some point in time. It makes me happy to see him have some success. His first game for Cali, he was a little rusty. That's now gone.

Jester, we are here. We lost a lot of games last year, but we haven't forgotten how to win. I could also be a beneficiary of my schedule
